how to get rid of groundhogs hillbilly style

[c00nhunterjoe]

go ahead, make fun of me, if you add it all up i think it cost me 30 bucks to kill that sob but it was worth it. 2 home made 1/2 sticks and 13 rounds of .45, but he was dead.

i belive there's an "f" in "of" but I'm assuming you attempted to spell get rid "of" groundhogs,.. but then again perhaps I'm reading too much into it?.  

[Brock Samson]

  then again,.. u 'n t are nowhere even close to the f so maybe,.. i guess,..  you wanted to spell, or, at least say that, perhaps "out" is hillbilly for "of", which makes perfect sense of course... I also sense a Jenny Lee is somehow involved in all this...

  this thread was alot more fun before you fixed the spelling mistakes... 

[c00nhunterjoe]

honestly i have no clue what you are talking about. but my spelling is great, my typing gets mixed up when i type too fast but i didnt change anything

[Landonsrt]

So, how do you know you really killed him or did i miss something?

[c00nhunterjoe]

becasue after the explosions i was standing right there and he kept popping out of the hole trying to breathe from all the smoke but he wouldnt come out since i was standing there so i waited over the hole with my 45 and when he popped out i let him have it. he was full of holes a bloody mess but i was not going to stick my arm down the hole to pull him out

[Khyron]

Is this rowdy?

[Silver R/T]

This country should not let idiots have guns. <--PERIOD

Why are so many people being rude to this person? I hope you guys just have some inside dispute going on instead of this just being how people are on this board.

Because some people are apparently better than others (and need to point it out at every opportunity). You don't wanna see how I get rid of groundhogs... and I don't want to hear the comments!

Not saying Joe is a bad guy, and I have nothing agaisnt hunting or ridding yourself of varmits. I do find it a bit unnecessary to use the excessive amount of force he used, and I also see no need to put in on video. I certainly don't think I'm better, just MHO. No offense intended.

I'm more surprised that anyone would admit to making homemade explosives in the post-9/11 America

[c00nhunterjoe]

i'm not joey gowdy  i'm also surprised you call me an idiot? hmm, there is alot of hatred between me and groundhogs, when you own cattle and have to shoot a 2-4 thousand dollar bull because he stepped in a groundhog hole then you will use excessive force on teh little bastards as well, so go hug your tree.

for your information i typicly use a .308 that holds a 1/4 to 3/8 5 shot group at 300 yards. i have a i shot one kill mindset with the current economy and reloading crisis. i dont like to miss and i rarely do. i take pictures of all of my kills so call me an idiot or call me stupid, whatever you like, i dont care.  those videos were done because that particular groundhog had caused a ton of trouble and i did not feel comfortable shooting him with the amount of backdrop behind his hole. IF i were as stupid as you claim i am i would have just used one of my semi-auto guns and unloaded 30 round clips on him. but did i do that? no. i resorted to other methods. exterminators use very inhumane methods and live traps are cruel as well. my gun/ammo selection kills the hog dead in its tracks and he never even hears the shot go off.

I stand corrected. For the record I never called you stupid. I just think the explosives may have been a bit excessive. Video taping it seems a bit much as you put it up here as a means for enjoyment. That having been said I grew up on farms my whole life and do understand protecting your stock. I am also not a tree hugger, I am however for humane treatment of animals. I don't want to sound like I'm riding a high horse, just some things I observed. Just my opinion.

I'd quote the specific person I was talking about but, after 6+ years it's hardly worthwhile.

The video with the rifle shot wasn't too bad except the camera jumping. Need a better zoom for 264 yards I guess. My uncle shoots muskrats across the lake in the dark (out in the sticks where I grew up and learned to shoot). I don't actually "hunt" anything myself but have no problems killing pests that destroy property (wish I could do the same for people who destroy it as well).

You know all those "humane" traps? Well, those guys dump the animals out here where I live. Last year we had 2 groundhogs, 4 squirrels, 5 raccoons, 3 opossum, 2 deer, and countless rabbits on 3/4 acre (most living under our shed). This year we have coyotes so one problem solved itself...
