GUN OR NO GUN?

We always take a gun just in case its needed. We have used it a hand full of times and were glad to have it.

Example:

A. We ran into a large group of hogs, the dogs scattered but two dogs stopped a big nasty boar in the middle of the road. We turned the cd loose in the direction of the bay but he saw a choat out of the corner of his eye and took off on a chase that lasted a while. One of the dogs on the big boar was a pup and he was getting tossed and cut. The older dog was getting cut also. James waited until the dogs were clear and shot the hog. No since in getting the dogs injured or worse while waiting on someone to retrieve the cd.

B. Just the other day we were on a hunt and at 3am on a wed. night we came up on a large group of treaspassers all drunk and high. The gun was not needed but it was in plain sight to let them know that it wasn't a good idea to start any crap.

C. Back during deer season, James's cousins have the lease next to the property that we hunt. A couple of young boys (cousins) were going to get in their pop up stand to do some bow hunting. Right as they approched the stand they heard a voice from inside the stand say " Hey, someone is in here"

It startled both the boys, they went back to deer camp and called the law. It turned out to be a couple of crack heads camped out in thier deer stand. You never know what a crack head is going to do. VERY SCARY! So just in case a crack head tries to mug us out in the woods, we will have our gun.
