    Go to Google Maps and print out a map of the farm, taking particular note of where people live and where you may end up shooting, and the areas where your projectiles could land.

    I also like using subs, as they are lower powered, and don't travel quite as far.

    I think 4 or 5. He's shot a few more and they have either been stuck in trees too high to climb or vaished into darkness.

    Tell him they're averaging about $8 each at present, needs about 50 to make it worthwhile to take to the buyer, and then see if he can climb trees.
