You don't have to be faster, just smarter. Get one of those old bait
chucker rods out and make a noose in the lines end. Pull out enough line
so you can sit comfortably away and put the noose over the rodents
hole. When the rodent pops it head up or part of its body, just set the
line and reel it in. Be sure to reel fast so the rodent doesn't try to run
up your leg. (It's really funny when it happens to your friend.) Use the
length of the rod to keep it at bay and dispatch it. C & R those buggers
is more of a challenge.

I have three groundhogs running around in my yard this morning. One is a
monster and almost gray in color. They have a den behind the shed. I just
can't use then as tying material They run too fast. LOL
I also have four baby Armadillos in the yard yesterday, any need for
Armadillo fur from between the toes. LOL
I got some Groundhog from English Angling Trappings some years ago at the
Somerset show. It is in a box somewhere in storage.
