I have a NIB Marlin Model 1895 I would sell for $500 to Ohio resident.

I can deliver the rifle FTF transfer and you show me some groundhogs.

I can buy you breakfast also. That is an Ohio deer rifle as of a couple days

ago. Kenny

Good deal!

You get a rifle at a good price, breakfast and you can route Kenny to any number of threads on here for pictures of blown up groundhogs.

:D

Sorry, couldn't resist.

We used to have them everywhere 20 years ago.
I killed at least a dozen on our four acres one year with the bow.
I never saw one in my part of Ohio all last year.
I used to hunt groundhogs every night after work with a 22 hornet
50 some years ago.
Coyotes eating my rabbits deer and groundhogs.
What else shall befall me?? Kenny

Our Groundhog season opens March 1st. I wait until the end of May to shoot any. This gives them a chance to breed and ween the youngins. If you shoot them in March or April you will have no more.

About the time they mow the corn and beans works for me. Kenny

Very few groundhogs around my place anymore. Deer herd a third of what it was 5 to 6 years ago. I haven't seen a turkey on my place for two years.

Coyote's are too smart to come to a call around here or I am too dumb to call them in. Probably the dumb reason.

Bad enough we had deer-hunting clowns slinging sabot slugs and 50 cal. muzzle-loader bullets at anything that moves a few days a year; they generally only killed and maimed themselves (although one managed to kill an Amish girl a mile away last year.) We don't need these wannabes armed with Sharpe's rifles overrunning and competing with real shooters for what's left of our groundhog fields. It'll be rifle-butt-to-the-gut for the first one I come up against. Oh, and now they can run supressors, too. You won't even know where the shot that kills you came from. How thoughtful.

I thought it was getting better. I now hear three shots instead of seven.

Your plan to duck when you hear a shot won't work real well supressor or not.
