Saturday was a great day!
Sighted my pistol in with the new red-dot scope..an E-bay special for $12!
My buddy Nik drilled and tapped my old Ruger MKI and mounted the scope for me.
I got her sighted in Saturday morning. Set it for about 15 yards...seems like close range, but the vegetation here is extremely thick right now and you are talking about squirrels...pretty small kill-zone.
So, got it all set for about 15 yards and went straight across the road to my favorite squirrel grounds. Was lucky enough to see three and took two of them home.
Dinner is in the freezer!
Yeah I know...YOU KILED A POOR DEFENSELESS LITTLE SQUIRREL?
Yes, I did. Yes, I eat them. Yes, they taste great and are by far my favorite meat.
Mother Earth gives us these creatures and we are expected to make use of them...show them respect..hunt them responsibly...make clean/quick/humane kills.
I do say a prayer of thanks to the Great Spirit for each gift received...and include a thank you to the animal itself.
