Squirrelhunter91 Posted June 16, 2005 Report Share Posted June 16, 2005 I got him! I got him! WOOT WOOT! Told y'all I would get him! Here is how the story goes: It had rained the night before, and I knew that woodchucks love the fields after a nice rainstorm. I don't know why, they just do. So as I am walking into my ground blind at about 7AM, I notice a "rock" that normally isn't on the hill. I stare at it and wait for it to move. It didn't exactly move, it blinked it's eye. That's all I needed to confirm it for the shot. I shot once. The arrow went right over it's back. There goes that broadhead. That broadhead was a mechanical one. So then I nocked another arrow with a 3 blade Muzzy, layed the pin on its vital area and let the arrow fly. Man do I love that noise! The noise when the arrow hits the skin and does some damage! I didn't pin it to the hill, but I got enough of the lungs to stop it where it was. It had no idea anything happened. It was hit, tried to run, and then just crumbled. The blood had bubbles in it, so I knew it was a lungshot. The woodchuck didn't go 3 yards before it just tumbled down the hill. I used my Browning Micro Midas 3 with Carbon Express arrows tipped with a 3-blade 75 grain Muzzy. Pics: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squirrelhunter91 Posted June 16, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2005 Re: Got my 2nd woodchuck ever! BOWKILL! No. I did not have school today. Here in my school district, they created an 8th and 9th grade center. Today the 9th graders started their Regents so the 8th graders didn't have to go.

Squirrelhunter91 Posted June 17, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2005 Re: Got my 2nd woodchuck ever! BOWKILL! codey, this was a suburban woodchuck. I shot in behind my house. Now my cucumbers will be safe. He already ate the tops of the cucumbers. That sparked the quest to shoot it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
