Ive thought about it before. Maybe its something I can learn and work with over the next several years and maybe, just maybe, turn it into a business.

That being said, I recently put my cameras back up and filled my feeders....Ive got 5 pesky coons that frequent every night.

I feel like Raccoon would be a good first go.

My smallest rifle is a 25-06.... Too much?

At this point it probably doesn't matter what you shoot them with. You need animals to practice skinning. Around the feet and face.
