we got alot of groundhog last summer, one was a monster, we had tatics though. there was a fishhouse next to the pond, to the left was the garden. theyd go to the garden, then back to the fishhouse, ect ect. so we camped in a big silver maple tree, right inbetween this highway. well, i had a recurve, my cousin had a longbow, i believe. anaways, there was a monster, probibly as big as my dog, goijng across. so, i took a shot, missed , them my cousin took a shot. also a miss. :-\ the thing ran under the fishhouse. so, we jammed all the exits with plywood, except one, then put a smoke grenade (rip cord if you guys know that brand, got them from the sirplus store ;D)down there, and the thing ran out, both arrows hit him, the first (mine) square in the ass, then my cousin's 65 pound ELB (for deer) went clear through it, it entered somewhere in the rib cage. i think i have the pictures somewhere. didnt mean to put a story on your post, but that was one of my best memories of childhood  ;D

Postman:
Once saw a neighbor with his Jack russel terrier's leash and a shovel - thought he was burying his dog, so we offered condolences and a hand.  We got to help him, but the dog wasn't dead - he was digging it and a very p.o.'d groundhog out of a hole! 

Got kinda hairy when we got that chuck outta there.... had to pin it down with the shovel, there was a brick involved,.... very poor planning on our part ;D

haha! yeah, sometimes you need to resolve to redneck tatics, we had family of squirrels in our attic a few years back. mind you, this is after the live trap attempt- so my dad and i had a weekend of plinking in out attic, with a .177 pellet gun ;D  the one we hit was one of three groundhog we killed, out of weeks of hunting them and rabbit. there alot smarter than i thougt, i wouldnt laugh if someone washed in dead down wind, I might the next time i go fer them. -jimmy
