This is for all my hunting buddies.
We have all had this happen to us: You are being as sneaky as ever, as you creep down the trail stalking the biggest buck you have ever seen in your life. 20 more yards and you will be in a spot for a perfect broad side shot. A rock big enough to conceal your body and provide a solid rest for your rifle is just ahead. The buck is feeding and has no clue you are anywhere near his hiding spot. You have been working this trail for over two hours. Your heart is pounding with excitement and you are beginning to tremble a little. The ground beneath your feet is just moist enough from the fresh rain fall to dampen any noises from the crunchy leaves that lay on the ground. A perfect breeze is blowing in your face as you approach the waiting boulder. There he is, in all his 5 point (Western count) glory. 30 inches high, 33 inches wide! For sure, you know it will score in the high 230’s! A buck only dreams are made of, but here he is, right in front of you! All you need to do is rest the rifle on the boulder, put the cross hairs on his chest and squeeze off the shot! You can’t miss!
And then here comes mister squirrel! The maker of sounds in the forest that alert every creature that lives there! He barks his noisy chatter and the buck is gone! Your thoughts turn to destroying him once the buck is out of sight! But he is gone as well! DAMN!
Well, this is what Remington has gone and done for us! They put together a series of short “squirrel issue” videos to make you remember why you want to destroy every one of them. Of course it is to promote their airguns mostly, but they are funny!
Check them out!
