I was using a conibear on a stick, to dispatch a coon. If you never done it, it's pretty intense. Especially when they show their teeth, and are barking & snapping at you. Nasty little creatures when cornered, like a pit bull on a mission. and they don't stay still for the 160 stick method. It came off the stick more than once, & I had to reset the conibear.

It's like buck fever for the 1st time.

My heart was pounding pretty good with the excitement, and I knew something was wrong when chest pains started happening. Eventually I went to the ER, and came out with a stent.

So Rocky will go up on the wall, so I can thank him.

I’ve killed coons every way imaginable and never once did it get me going that bad.

Glad your ok and glad it wasn’t a double.

Glad to hear that you’re alright Brother. Take care of yourself.
