Hi Wayne.
That was a... Great... 35 yard shot... on that Red... with your Avenger.
Especially so, with all the leaves & foliage still on the trees & the undergrowth.
You were quite skillfull & fortunate in being able to get a decent shot at that Red.
Successfully retrieving it, was quite an accomplishment too.
Your target shooting was very good as well.
I noticed that you had used that same pine, for some previous target shooting.
Best Wishes - Tom

Hang in there Wayne. The big game squirrels will be ready in a few more weeks. Been scouting out the nut tree locations. Looks to be another good year. They have begun cutting acorns around here for the last couple weeks. Made sure I got time off work for the opener!
