Great balls of fire!

[Underdog 2,337]

Just had to get out with Bessy and those huge balls.

I was after a rabbit and sadly there was very few.

I was on land that usually is crawling with rabbit but I struggled to see any!

It was sad and thought after today I shall leave them alone.

Anyway eventually and after a few miles I found one to stalk.

I got down to 27yds and levelled Bessy on the unsuspecting buck rabbit.

I had renewed the pan powder just prior as it had got damp but although the fan flashed quick there was an unusual fizz as it fused through the flashhole slower than normal. I followed through and when Bessy did spit the ball out it was on target.

It was good fun and the meat is in the fridge.

Must take good technique to wait that long without moving. Well done.

Actually you could eat up to the hole!

Unfortunately it also struck the stomach!

I just used the back legs and saddle.

It was a good job there was plenty of wet grass!!
