Nice! Will be going out next week or the week after for some 'chuks. I have never eaten one, or even considered it before, tell me how it tastes.

Re: Got a woodchuck!
Grundies have a taste all to their own in my opinion, darker colored meat but surprisingly mild. The young ones tend to be milder than the older ones, and better to look at while cleaning them. I had them a few times slow cooked in tomato sauce w/ peppers and onions. We always soaked them in salt water overnight.

Re: Got a woodchuck!
im not even sure what a woodchuck is, but since you got one, how much wood do they chuck? Is it anything like the GEICO commercial? And if so, I can see how its easy to shoot them. They just sit on the bank chucking your wood whilst you yell at them. Chow down. I dont personally like much small game. I hope it turns out to your liking
