I probably have many, but since other people have posted some different ways they have hunted, I thought I would share this story of mine. This all took place around 30 years ago or more. I used to mow the lawn for my parents most of the time in summer. We had a nice Simplicity lawn tractor. We had around 1-1.5 acres of lawn to mow. We always had those stupid striped ground rats (gophers) that dug tunnels under the lawn. Of course they wouldn't come out so you could shoot them when it was quiet outside. So I learned that when mowing lawn these little rats weren't to scared of the mower and I could get within about 10 feet or so of them to shoot them. So one day I decided to take dad's 12 gauge along while I was mowing. WOW! That was a blast! I could shoot gophers until they were all gone or I ran out of ammo or lawn. Whichever came first. You should have seen the mailman drive by when he seen me mowing with a shotgun! I bet the thought this must be a rough neighborhood that you have to carry a shotgun while mowing! LMAO now. It wasn't a rough neighborhood at all. I killed many gophers for many years like that. Heck my dad thought it was a good way to get rid of the ground rats too! Kow Farmer Kurt

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
