First 30-06 CB kill!!!

[Blackhawk45hunter]

I was out hunting for crop damage deer and this big girl stood up broadside 60 yards away. I touched one off just below the eye. Down she went and up went the tail!

Now she's parboiled and grilled in sweet baby ray's!

[RugerFan]

Good shootin! My K31 likes that same boolit.

good eats

[Blackhawk45hunter]

I think I parboiled it too fast or kept it on the grill too long...
It was like chewing on leather.
I'll have to try again.

My wife says she can make treated lumber taste good if it's cooked in a crock pot for 24 hours.

[redneckdan]

Try a crock pot or pressure cooker next time. For coons I parboil them to make sure any germs are killed then throw it in the crock pot over night.

The Idaho/Montana Rockchucks I have been around have more lice than anything else. Re Eastern Woodchucks the same? It takes a brave man to skin one.

[Blackhawk45hunter]

The easties arent too bad, just an occasional tick or two to deal with.

If you start to notice your decking is missing Jim, best you dine out.

What is that critter? Ground hog? Land dwelling sea lion?

[Mk42gunner]

Looks like a ground hog to me Jeff.

Strangely enough, the only one I ever shot was in a tree and fell on my Grandpa's porch roof.

[Blackhawk45hunter]

That is strange. I didn't know they could climb...

[roverboy]

Yeah Blackhawk they can climb pretty good when they need to. I saw one up a tree about 20 feet once when my Walker Coonhound treed it. The young groundhogs are sometimes good eating.

[Blackhawk45hunter]

That's what I hear, I've been meaning to give em a try. This one was just too old and I think I cooked it too fast.

[Mk42gunner]

The worst part was I had to disconnect the downspout from the cistern fill point and wash all the blood off the shingles.

The only good well on the place had way too much iron and sulpur in the water to drink, so they collected rainwater fronm the roof into a cistern and in the summer they usually had to get a couple of loads of water hualed.

perhaps next time, you should skin it first, and throw that to Jim's wife! She'll make it soft and tasty like creamy garlic alfredo!

One of my fondest memories, we had stock water gyp but we had to haul drinking water from town. This was a 14 mile round trip and we went with a mule drawn wagon with a 250 gal tank. All day job but at 5 and I got to ride the wagon with my poppa, what a treat. He never drove a truck or even had a drivers license and plowed with a team of mules. What fond memories.
