Default Last Day Success

Ok, I made my way to my stand at around 3:00 PM, only to be followed in by a Cocker Spaniel and a Mutt, needless to sayI was not happy, afterI got that situation handeld, I climbed my tree for whatI thought was going to be a peaceful day. I go to sit down and find out that a bolt I did not adjust last time was causing the stand to sit on the tree at a hard angle, so I was in for a good old timey stand up hunt. 3:45 The wildlifehad started to move into my area and lood like it would be a good hunt after all, then it sounded like I was at the drag strip. A guy, not far away, decided to do burnouts with his Nova, for an hour, that is all I heard. THen two crotch rocket street bikes deicded to race. I finally got a few minutes of peace and then World War III started. The feild across the creek had at least 8 gunshots come from the back, and three from the front. 5:20 It is getting about that time to get down and a very prized animal decideds to give me a shot, soI draw and shoot, I hit him right behind the front shoulder and him went a few feet and stopped. I nocked my Lumenock up this time ( first time hunting with it, and that is the coolest invention thatI have ever seen, I watched my arrow go right through him ) and sfter a perfect shot I got down and went to retrieve my trophy, my very first............................................. ...................

ummm it's not just theskull that is measured. duh !!!!! You getthe lengthand3 circumference measurementsof the tail... plus the skull measurements. Then you add the height of the squirrel in the tree thatit was shot in ( gross score ), minus thedistance it fell ( net score ). Best to stick them. Takes a 376 incherto make book.

Yea that is about right, allI did was make the Honorable Mention. It really hurt my score since he was on the ground, but it made my net score much better.[8D]
