woodchuck with a rock
Pahinh.Winh:
One morning some years ago, I heard the dogs carrying on out by the big maple.. Went to see what they had treed.. There was a young woodchuck - about 8-9 lbs - laying as flat as it could, on a limb about 10' off the ground. Cahined the dogs, put water & food at the bottom of the tree.. He wouldn't leave until I took the dogs to the barn & chained them there.. 2 days later. I'll bet s/he was one hungry chuck! I grew up in the country - never heard of a woodchuck climbing a tree. Wouldn'ta been sporting to kill it, but they are good eating.

I remember when I was a kid the first time I saw a possum I thought it was a giant rat, freaked me out a bit. They are nasty critters.
hedgeapple:
Recurve, I hate wounding an animal then losing it. It probably was so much my speed (the rabit was most likely laughing at this old fart jumping through the briar) as it was my determination.
CodyCoyote:
A friend of mine used to kill wooodchucks with pocket knives alll the time, he would get between the hole and the hog and run it down (they arent very fast) and stab it with a knife or hit it with a rock, I shot one when I was 7 with a red rider about 10 feet away in a tree, I shot it about 60 times then he fell and i hit it with a stick.
