Was predator hunting years back when I was a young man..lol..at night was using a mouth call trying to get some varmits to come close enough to shoot for a taxadermy class I was taking. Well this big ole Owl swooped in and landed on a low tree limb right above our heads. My buddy wabted to shoot it right off. Talked him into waiting..bad idea..after a few more minutes using the mouth call my buddy started hollering and took off thru the woods screaming...He was in total shock..he was wearing a sock cap with a white fuzzy ball on top and that OLE OWL took it right off his head along with leaving several scratches across his scalp...so yeah I totally believe you Crappie Hog.......Ranger
