Nope--those are Yellow-Bellied Marmots.  Still legal to shoot.  Only the Hoary and Olympic Marmots are protected.  :tup:

:fire.:

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

What caliber of rifle, and how far was the shots?  Good job on whacking some chucks :tup:

Rockchucks are about as fun as it gets! A couple friends and I start at 100 yards and work out as far as 400 yards. Longest kill so far is 378 yards ( range finder). Lawn chair and bipod or shooting stick, sunshine And a good rifle. That's a good day!

Congrats on a fun time! Probably plenty more to take!

Looks like a Remington rifle, the 722 is a good guess.

I was wondering why you would want to "relive" stress from exams all week. :chuckle:  Nice shooting.
