Calling All Squirrel Hunters!!!

[ThePushArchery]

Well I recently have fallen in love with a new sport...

They are so challenging, and if you can get into them, you are guaranteed at least 10 - 15 shots in a day at these buggers. They are tough as nails too! No better way to lose arrows and have an excuse to make more cedars than squirrel Hunting! How didn't I start doing this sooner!

If you have some squirrel kill or squirrel hunting pictures lets get some posted, and hopefully someone else here will get into this great sport!

Here is me and my favorite hunting partner, one I killed and her first squirrel she killed all by herself.  My daughter Brier and I both love squirrel hunting!!

[T Folts]

Been bowhunting squirrels for 45+ years. Next to deer hunting it's my favorite hunting !

[TRADNSC]

It definitely is alot of fun.  My son and I had an afternoon like you mentioned, plenty of shots but nothing to bring home.

Oh man, my deer hunt can turn into a squirrel hunt in a blink of an eye! Hard to hit and very tough critters!

Here's couple from my thread the other day found here:  http://tradgang.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=1;t=083916;p=1





Hunting those crazy critters are more fun than I ever thought. Taking a kid with you only makes it 10 times more fun!

Squirrel hunting is a blast. I love deer hunting, but I probably do more squirrel chasing in a year than any other kind of hunting. Besides that, small game or large, you become a better shot  at game by shooting at actual critters. At least around my neck of the woods, there's no other type of animal you can hunt where you're going to get as many shots as you do when you're hunting tree-rats.

Here's a couple eastern grays from southern Illinois...

Yeah, they make you a better shot.  They also make you better at swearin'!

They are tough little buggers.  Be thankful they aren't the size of deer!!!!

Whew! They sure get big back east. Round here, the tree rat's are more like tree mice...

[cacciatore]

Sweet kids,by the way.

Missed one by an inch or so the other day!

I too love chasing them, but have yet to connect. A word of warning before you watch these videos: Don't drink anything because you might choke from laughing so much (@ at our expense of course).
