Gophers here are like the plague. they cause all kinds of problems for the cattle. Ranchers are thrilled if you get rid of some some gophers for them.
@joheen57 that gopher and his family was living off that land before you or the cattle ranchers, killing is not a sport and should be done when you require meat to survive, which with all the comforts of modern living is unnecessary. you wouldn't like it if I started hunting your family or any other human? put down the weapons and stop branding yourself as an uneducated redneck hillBilly. Respect nature you can learn allot from it when its not destroyed.
@SPIRITintheBOTTLE So do you live in a hovel in the woods and feed yourself exclusively on wild plant matter? Because killing rodents is a part of modern agriculture for both ranching and growing crops. Would you prefer that they be poisoned and suffer for hours then get eaten by a scavenger that will then be sickened or killed? Stop branding yourself an urban elitist so removed from nature that you don't recognise where foods comes from.
we call em ground hogs here but yeah people hunt em and eat em. back in the day their hides where used as banjo heads. thats why you hear alot of banjo players say tighten down the skin.
mmm, those gut shots must hurt em. ya should go step on their head or somethin instead of lettin em die slowly =-/. just my opion or use a gun m8. but nice shootin none the less.
Im use my crossbow for gophers all the time...very effective. I like arrows for gophers better than guns beacuse if only the tip if the gophers head is out of the hole, you can shoot the arrow on an angle into the ground right in front of the hole and it goes through the ground and gets them.
i just shot one yester day with my bo he or she tryed to get down the hole with an arrow in him but he couldet so a shot him in the ass when he was trying to get down the and the arrow came out his head it was asome
Looks like fun to me!

COOLNICK198 2 years ago
It depends whay you are hunting. For hunting gophers you can either use judo points or small game heads(made by G5)
Both work fine & they both fly good.

COOLNICK198 2 years ago
For hunting deer, you can either use mechanical heads or fixed blades, just make sure they are good & sharp, They kill by hemoraging , not by shock

don't use flu-flus...
use Judo Points or just plain field points, that's what i do w/ just a 30lb recurve...
you practice on hitting pop cans, they're about the same size as a gopher.
this is mad fun though.
