Never have myself, but some old timers told me the young ones are delicious.

Old ones are tuff. Young ones are better. Very good BBQ'd

Yeah, they aint bad. The young ones are good, the older ones are tough, but crock pot em for a while then fry em and they are good too. Good fried or BBQed.

Heard that young ones are good. Wouldn't know why not; they are vegetarians:)

RE: eating woodchuck?
 

young ones are good and older ones are a bit tuff but if properly cooked they are good too. Take care when skinning out not to break glands in legs and take extra time to remove all fat.

never had one, but i guess that i am going to have to try one!

I'd be scared to death to eat any I shoot...my .22-250 55 grain BlitzKing bullets fully tenderizes them....tiny bone fragments everywhere....usually they are in pieces...

ROFL. Yah, nothing like the splat of a varmint round. Funny I handloaded hornady SX's for a triple deuce for years. They would go off like a little artillery shell! Hehe, put a couple FMJ in your pocket for when you are hungry.

I've never had a groundhog but I have heard they are good. I would probably treat them just like a squirrel!
