Couple nights ago had to run out to the shop to get some things for another member here. Short story to enjoy. My bird dog took off like a shot to the trees behind the house going nuts. I knew it wasn't a squirrel at that hour, so got a flashlight and what do you know Ricky was just hanging out. Ricky just looked at me and Lincoln all casual laying in a limb crook. Lincoln was going a good job keeping Ricky in the tree, so I went back in and got the Benjamin Marauder 22. I set up on the porch rail and Ricky was about 20-30 yards away and I did not need to hold crazy or adjust as its sighted in for 60yards. Put Rickys two green eyes on top of the horizontal on each side of the verticle and stoned him. Jeez talk about a cluster, Lincoln tracked him bouncing down and had him before I think he even hit the ground. I'm hollering and running through knee deep snow because I thought Ricky was still kicking. Well he was kicking he just didnt know it, and the last thing I wanted was a vet bill. You probably know what a Ricky will do to a dog if they are alive. Dumb on my part I just had HUA over chatting with Ricky. Kicked the dog (No way in hello was I sticking my hand in that mess) and blocked him from getting Ricky again. Yep Ricky was just doing the happy dance was all. One less pest....love me some Marauder and thanks to Muddyboots for pointing out I gave Ricky a Headache.
