so he shot is as the opportunity presented or was it going after one of his dogs? I'm not sure as it's written. Glad he got it either way.

Incredible he was able to kill it before it got one and not close enough to hit them with the shot. just being in the right place is awesome. Tell him to go buy a lotto ticket. I. glad his dogs are OK.

we shoot one every year or so in Tn while rabbit hunting, but they are usually trying to slip out of thicket , not after dogs.
