Greetings all,
I'm soon to walk out the door on 2 firsts for me to try out. Today is opening day of squirrel season here. The first (and one I have no doubts about) is a Ruger Impact .22 air rifle. I've shot it plenty and even my youngest daughter nailed a pop can first shot at about 30 yds. But ive yet to actually hunt with it. I do, however, have total confidence in the gun. My old tired eyes? Well, we'll see.
The second new try and the wild card, a 2yr old Aussie Shepherd. When I let her out during daylight hours I have to keep an eye on her because if she sees a squirrel, she loses her damn mind and reasoning or hearing all goes out the window. By god though, she will tree that little buggar and hold tight lookin up or follow it from tree to tree if it jumps. The problem is, calling her off. I can see it in her body language, she hears but she ain't listening!! Aussies are kinda hard headed in that aspect anyway, SOOO, I'm kinda thinking we're gonna be best buddies, or hate each other tonight. I don't foresee much of any kind of middle ground, so time will tell. If I don't post an update later tonight, most likely she wound me into a heart attack or slitting my own throat. Either way, passing will be doing something I love so in native terms, it is a good day to die
