These were good. <br />There was a town up in Canada that had ground hogs<br />dressed up doing just about everything...around<br />1997 PETA was all up set about it.. <br />Anyone remember anything about that?

Re: Groundhogs are fighting back

I like whistlepigs with an attitude!<br /><br />Remindes me when I was a kid in the late 60's. A buddy and I had shot one about 100 yds from the road. Behind it was a ditch that was about 6 feet deep. We went up to the groundhog that was dead and heard the crunching of gravel of a slow moving vehicle coming down the road. It was the sound of a groundhog hunter moving slowly down the road.<br /><br />So my buddy says lets have some fun. So he takes this stick, sharpens a point on it and sticks it up the butt of the groundhog. We get dowwn in the ditch and put the groundhog in sight of the hunters. Just shortly, BOOOOM, blood and guts went all over us. He then gets the bloody mess back on the stick and puts him back up on the ridge of the ditch. You could hear the guy in the truck say "I can't believe that SOB is still alive!" So again the sound of the gun goes off again, and again we are showered with stuff from the riddled groundhog. Now the groundhog is so mutilated the stick won't hold him anymore. So we toss him back up on the ridge and made him move with the stick like he was still alive. The guy in the truck says I can't believe that dang on groundhog is back in sight, half its head is gone!<br /><br />The hunters finally got out of their truck and heard us laughing in the ditch. We couldn't hold it back anymore. They sure thought they found the groundhog from he** with an attitude. Still after a couple of years went by, the story of the groundhog with an attitude was still being told.

I may be wrong here but they look like Prairie dogs not groundhogs. :D <br /><br />Either way I have yet to meet one that could stop a car travelling at 50mph.

Re: Groundhogs are fighting back

Homer his looks were priceless. <br /><br />Jgregory, I think the only difference between the two are their weight. Our groundogs can weigh about 10 or so pounds. Plus if you hit one at any speed, occassionaly they will stop a car. Their bones can puncture a tire. Now the ones carring weapons, that depends on their aim! But I have seen where they have been hit, rolled, bounced, tumbled, 50 yards and get up and run. :D <br /><br />Groundhogs look so cute behind the sights of a rifle! :D

JGregory... Contender after the plant fire, I ordered two and man was I mad when I got that engraved sided plate rather than the old cast. Sold them and bought a Encore and love it. P.S. Love the stock! I must say I Really like TC Arms though.

Re: Groundhogs are fighting back

With all this hostility towards groundhogs, what do you expect them to do? You are the ones that have invaded their homeland, you are the aggressors and the occupiers. It will continue to get worse till you eradicate them all, or you give up and withdraw, giving them back their own country. After all, they should be able to run it however they want to.<br /><br />That is, of course, unless the UN gets behind the action to control the groundhogs homeland. Then it will be okay, because we must do whatever teh UN wants us to do. :D
