Pheasent Taxidermy Project

Yesterday I picked up a road kill pheasant. It looks very undamaged, so I am going to try my hand at skinning it soon. Then I'll mount it at a later date, as I am a little short on money. :,( I found these video series on YouTube.

Wish me luck!

22 just not working!!

After awhile of sighting in my new 22, we found out it was just not working! It was about a foot off at 30 yards when it was adjusted as far as possible. We brought it back to the shop and he sent it to Savage to fix or replace. That was a few months ago so I should get it back any day now. :-)

ps. If you look at the photos below they were when I was aiming down and left.
