I wish I was better with a bow as I have a smaller compound bow but no arrows as I'd destroyed those years ago.. Either that, or a crossbow.. I can't use the rifles since I'm in "residential" areas.. I think the fine for discharging a firearm in a residential area is a lot and I lose my guns.. Nope, not doing that.. But a bow?? I can fuck these guys up all day..
However......
There appears to be a couple rather large woodchucks that I'd prefer to stew as they chomped on nearly all of my veggies last year.. As I've gotten older, I want to kill less and save more, but at the same time, these little bastards would probably taste pretty good, seeing as I know what kinda healthy stuff they ate last year.. I may try traps, but my goal with the garden this year is to elevate it, yet surround it like a Max-security prison.. I'd even considered concertina wire for the top so I could catch me some critters.. I wish I could unleash my cats on these fuckers but I feel like the fisher cat population has increased lately and I don't want them to become victims of my struggles..
Sounds like it's time to go get an air rifle..
