Title: Another one down for the count!
Post by: frassettor on February 03, 2012, 07:31:00 PM
Was going to post a few days ago, but my schedule would not allow it. Shot another squirrel with my 61# PLX and CX 350 shaft. These Zephyrs seem to really really knock the wind out of the squirrels! Happy to put another one in the freezer!

Nice shooting! They are quick little buggers, very tricky to put an arrow into them. What is your favorite recipe for them?

Nice shooting, Rick. Good to see you're still getting some arrows in the air, and successfully, too. Congrats!

Nice! Can you tell me more about your arrow set-up? How long? How much weight up-front? What draw length? Just curious, as I used to shoot the same shaft out of a 78# PLX.

Sure Ben, my arrows are cut to 31" BOP, 100 brass insert, and a 260 tip. Sometimes it is a 290 tip depending if I use my Grizzly ElGrandes. Total arrow weight is 750. I draw 28". These fly great, and hit like a tank.     :thumbsup:

I bought my limb socks from 3 rivers. They are a sponsor here. Here is the link..

Nice! I've been out squirrel hunting a few times lately, but hardly seen anything. I've never hunted squirrels in the winter before. Seems like they're most active around 10 a.m. so me hunting a few hours before dark is probably pointless....
 What time of day do you hunt? Do you stalk or stillhunt?
