“Put a stalk on one in the back yard yesterday but he caught my wind. I know where he lives though.”
Okay guys, let’s hear your opinion – Is a groundhog’s nose sensitive enough to wind you like a deer?
Growing up in Ohio, I too hunted and killed many a groundhog, but haven’t hunted specifically for them for years, but they’re still around. Have at least 2 living in my back yard right now but no desire to shoot them at this time… As I was once upon a time, a lot of varmint rifle folks around here are into it and know a guy who killed over 700 in one year, so he claimed… But back to the question – can a groundhog wind you???
