Ground Hog

During my recent visit to North Carolina, my hosts mentioned that they had an invasion of a family of Ground Hogs munching in their veg plot.

I was told they were "very fast" and very wary, scurrying off at the first sound or sight.

Well the women went off to a meeting and I stayed behind with a Henry lever action.

An hour later I was rewarded as the Big Daddy showed up in the Veg patch.

A satisfying single shot did the deed at 50 yards. :):good:

He weighed a bit over 5lb.

Interestingly the rest of the family have not been seen since. Like most vermin, they can take a hint. It's called survival.

The water bottle is just to show a bit of scale.
