    Yo, I was an exchange student for a year in a farming town in Wisconsin for a year. Helped with some farm work, and enjoyed the scenery. Nothing beats the amazing sun sets and sun rises. I remember chilling on a hill watching how the wind would blow the grain grass, some years later I would consider it a very fond memory of mine.

    Thank you for the video and educating people on farm life. I grew up a "towner" until my mom married my stepdad and they bought a small farm. The summer between my sophomore/junior year, I discovered "haulin' hay" as a job. It sure beats mowin yards, the pay was 3.00 hour (1979), the farmers wives always fed us lunch in the fields (great food), I wore only cut-offs and tennis shoes. The result was a great tan, muscles, grew a stash and hit school in the fall with girls going goo-goo for me. My grades sucked that year. ;-)

    Great work, Ted.
    That twofer was fantastic.
    I pulled that off years ago with my .22 caliber Gamo CFX (spring gun), lining up on a male House sparrow on the ground.
    I nailed the male sparrow, killing him on impact, the pellet continued straight through him, then likewise instantly killed a female House sparrow on the other side of him.
    Two pests gone (those of you unfamiliar with House sparrows should know that they are a highly destructive invasive species here in the U.S.) in one shot.
    btw...your explanation about how you get permission to hunt on these farms says a lot of good about you.
    You worked hard for these farmers in your youth, gaining their respect in the process, so when you asked if they'd like to have the pests on their property eliminated, they saw it as a chance to say thanks and get rid of the pests at the same time.
    Speaking as someone who baled hay over a few years, that's not the sort of work for wimps; definitely a man's job.

    Love your reminiscing about growing up on the farm. I grew up in a small village and my Grandparent's farm was maybe 3 miles up the road here in Eastern rural Ohio. Spent my childhood learning "character building" there. Baling hay, cutting firewood from the old canal banks, helping butcher cows and dividing the meat out to all of the family, etc... We always shot the starlings too. But Grandpa had purple martin houses on poles out near the garden, and you didn't think twice about taking a shot at them. Excellent shooting, btw!

    When I was 12 in 1963, I hunted with a Crosman 160 22 cal CO2 powered pellet gun every day....
    Now I am the master of getting permission to hunt for deer.

    I love Wisconsin. Been all over the state and if I had to pick my favorite place.....I couldn't. The whole state is paradise.

    I remember my first kill, it was a Starling. I went for the headshot because I was an amateur and I nearly peed myself when it started flopping around
