and fires from four feet. The rabbit looked
ot Tom and Tom glared back. Well, Tom
took another shot and the bunny looked
again and Tom glared back. The bunny got
disgusted and ran off. Now this situation
worried Tom through the years and approx
imately eight years later, in March 1957,
Tom wrote Don and asked if there could have
been blanks in that .22? Don was prompt
with the answer after eight years. He stated,
"It wasn’t actually done as a gag, but for
safety. As you know,a .22 is a dangerous
weapon and the farmers just don't trust
city folks with live ammunition." Maybe
this will help you sleep nowl
By golly, when I stop to think of how I
spent an awful day in the cold, wet snow
and actually had a rabbit in sight and was
cheated by the cleverness of Don Woods ,
I know I won't sleep until some day I have
the opportunity to clobber Sir Woods with
some ingenuity of my own. Now I do not
know if there is a moral to this story -
except that it might be wise to be a little
cagey around Don Woods. However,! now
feel that 1 can go hunting again without the
stigma attached to me as the “Man Who
Missed Two Shots From Four Feet.*' As an
afterthought, I wonder if that bunny ever did
get shot because he sure ain't gun shy-
after sitting there looking at a rifle fire
two shots at him.
