Just had a thaw in N.E.Ohio and did not want to waste a good day. Started out my day off with my huntin buddy Molson. A little shootin and tweakin up our set ups (http://i178.photobucket.com/albums/w266/MGERARDI_2007/mikespics004.jpg). Well Tim had a "honey do list" and I was off on my for a little walk. Just happen to have 200 achers in the back yard I am the caretaker of :D . Brought my new Shrew Samuri 58in 60@28. (http://i178.photobucket.com/albums/w266/MGERARDI_2007/mikespics014.jpg).
Found a shed. Little guy this time around. (http://i178.photobucket.com/albums/w266/MGERARDI_2007/mikesstuff025.jpg).

Close up pics are not a problem as long as you put the corn real close to the camera. As far as a hero pic , I have to get this monkey off my back first. Been a rough couple of years.
