Yes!! Someone else who immediately thinks of Forrest Gump when seeing raccoons. I AM NOT ALONE!! "Coons used to come on the front porch all the time. Momma jus sweep em off with a broom" Forrest Gump

in the hilltown that's a hat

How you doing Jimmy! Here in my neck of the woods, they give ten bucks a coon pelt, a man could get rich with the coons around here! Funny how I found that out, I was observing a "strange" truck on the outer road at the "farm" one day, I was already packing a concealed pistol but thought I might up grade the hardware for this encounter, so here I am, sneaking up on some grungy looking guy in the woods near the road (yes trespassing) I watch him from 50 yards out, wondering wtf he's doing at the base of a tree, my curiosity peaking, I confront the dude....first off, I came up behind him and immediately see he's holding a small caliber hand gun, I "announce" my presence to him and (keeping my M4 A2 out of site behind my back) approach him. He (in a defensive tone) tells me he's trapping coons and has the right to be there, in the right away of the road. I tell him to holster his gun so we can talk, at first he is hesitant then (best move he made all day) put it away. We talk and he tells me he gets $10 bucks cash a pelt and gets 5-10 a day, just off the county roads! Hmm, maybe that's how I can make a few extra bucks for the gas tank!
