Back in the 50s and 60s it was common to see chuck hunters riding the roads where I lived in the early evening shooting them.
Now, most of the small farms around here are gone and there are not that many open fields. Besides, all the "transplants" have their land posted and don't like seeing any critters killed.
Back in the mid-sixties, my brother shot 300 in one summer; all "cut off their tails" verifiable. And.......he did it all with a 22 with a well sighted-in scope. He was out every evening after supper.
The one thing I noticed back in those days, no matter how many were killed, the population out in the fields remained fairly static.
My Dad had a part shepherd who, when she was in her prime would get a chuck nearly every day. Many days he would have to go down and move some stones on the stone wall when she would get one cornered there.
I used to shoot them a lot myself but once I intentionally swerved on to the shoulder with my car and killed one......felt bad about that.....go figure!

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
