Default First kill of 2010 (monster)

4:30 AM New years morning, walking up a driveway with my friend going coon hunting. We hear walking to our right, so we stop. this coon walks behind us and starts to cross the driveway when i smack him with my Marlin .22 LR. he rolled and squalled and a few more shots ended that. only my second coon ever but definately the biggest ive ever seen.
