Default My first drive by!!!!!!

I've been seeing a possum around my house and he's been getting into my trash, but can never get the chance to either run him over or shoot him. Well today I spotted him earlier! I have a pretty long gravel drive and I saw him way down it so I do as any reasonable coona$$ would do..... I floored that Fn truck trying to run him over. He ran across the ditch and was skirting it by the time I got to him. The only other option was the ol trusty Bersa 380. I rolled down my window and took a shot..... It was a little low so I was making my adjustments when he got behind a tree. As soon as he came out from behind it I plugged his a$$. I jumped out the truck to see the perfect neck shot from about 10-12 yards. Those Hornady Critical Defense rounds almost severed his head!!!!! Then like any humble man would do, I pulled out my phone to take a pic, but my damn memory was full, so I called my dad and brother to rub it in. Highlight of my freakin week!!!!!

I had an armadillo tearing up the yard last year but could never catch him... One morning I was leaving at 4:30 to go hunting and I spotted him in the yard... I put it in park, started chasing I'm and got close enough to kick him in the a$$... He stopped and we looked at each other and he jetted out in the ditch... If someone would have passed the would have def been ***?!?!

Matt,

Good story. I live out by you. Must be possum capital of the world. They feast on our cat food. I shoot them with everything, bow, pellet gun, 9mm, whatever. And, also, like any self respecting coonass, I took a picture of the last one. This one fell to a pellet gun. Sorry for all the blood but for a possum around my house, "it's a hard knock life".

I killed one a few months back with a pellet rifle, amazing how much power them things have nowadays. Gamo .177 Hornet did the trick on this one.
