    I was crawling thru some scrub just trying to get from A to B once.

    Come to a spot I could stand up and found I was a a few feet from a spiker ass end to me behind a bit of scrub to my front.
    Could have poked the barrel thru the shit and shot in the back of the head.
    I went for an aimed a head shot as I wanted to make sure with my .223

    Projectile must have struck the scrub, deflected and hit it in the spine just above its tail.😆

    Carried the bastard a long way out of the hills to sell it. Iirc, I got under $80 bucks for it when it should have been worth 3 hundy.
