Bunnyblatter Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 Woke at 7.30 this morn to blowing a gale and torrential rain so turned over and nodded off again lol Woke up again at 9 to bright sunshine, but still very windy. Sod it i thought and got up and got dressed nice and warm with wellies on, I set off to my grans to see if there were any squirrels about. I arrived at the garden to see a fat magpie in the back tree. Wow I thought what a start to the New Years hunting. I settled in to the shot and ........... missed, don't know if it was the wind or excitement or maybe both ? Gutted I moved on to the bottom wood but it was far too windy to take any safe, humane shot. So feeling a bit down in the dumps due to the miss on the maggie I made my way back to my grans. I sat in the small gap between the sheds and house and a movement in the tree caught my eye after about 5 mins. A squirrel was on the move. I waited for what seemed an eternity for it stop and present its self for a clean shot. Eventually it stopped and I took it with a clean head shot. BINGO !! Off the mark in 2014. Feeling pretty happy with myself I set off home through the wood. I managed another 2 squirrels and a woodie in a sheltered part of the wood at the bottom of a hill. I was impressed with this shot as it was a clean head shot at around 42 paces The head shot pigeon A group shot. I'm really enjoying the HW100 its like a lazer gun !!
