Thanks guys. It felt so good to return to predator mode and escape the hectic work life for a little while.
While I was stalking this guy I imagined that I was slipping along an Alaskan stream full of Salmon when I saw this huge boar Grizz. Then I was snapped back to reality when I pictured my bank account balance...$0.00!!! :eek:

MMMMMMMMMM, that's some fine eatin right there! Peel em quick after the kill, get the musk glands off (kinda behind each leg), soak em in water in the fridge for a couple of days changing out the water, add your favorite crock-pot recipe and SHAZAM! good food.

What did I tell Ya!!! JC can smells them groundhogs on his putor! I took my son ground hoggin when he was three. He heard me calling them groundhogs and my buddy calling them woodchucks so Gray started calling the woodhogs. So thats what we called them for a few years.

Thanks for the recepie, I look forward to trying it. Here is a picture of one that I shot out of a tree several years ago with a 68lb. Bighorn. I was a little over bowed! I had him mounted life size.

Oh man. Just got to examine a woodchuck skeleton in my zoology class today. I couldn't get over how sturdly constructed those little guys are. Comparing it to a raccoon, the chuck had smaller bones, but alot thicker and more robust. No wonder why these suckers are so tough...

Jim you should use that for a decoy

I have noticed quite a few out eating grass on ditch banks lately.

Doug, when I used to spend a lot of time on the Maple River, I used to see lots and lots of woodchucks. They seem to really like making their dens along riverbanks and I have thought that it would be fun to do a woodchuck float and hunt them that way. It would be easy with a gun but challenging with a bow.

How much wood could a woodchuck chuck? About 3/8" of cedar

Nice mount Jim! They really are tough to stalk, they are on red alert non stop!

Brent
PS I've yet to over kill anything!

And it was a pleasure meeting you! Hopefully we can do it on a little shooting expedition soon!

Then again that rat down a piece of 4" pipe with the 10 ga might just have been!
