What a hunt!

Postby 2500hdon37s » Mon Jan 03, 2011 5:20 pm

went hunting new years day with my dad, 2 brothers and a family friend, had a group of 5 work in perfectly on us as we didnt even need to call (must have been my new full bodies :D ), and we shot all 5 of them so each person got a goose, so we go and retrive them. and 3 of them have bands! as well as my goose was OLD, so old that the sides of the band where paper thin and worn a notch in it!
