Scored...kinda
« on: October 07, 2008, 04:00:40 pm »
Well, I passed on a questionable shot on a small buck the other day, and the does and wind haven't been cooperating. But, I decided to take the dogs for another stroll for squirrels...

Of course, it is going to take a lot of strolls to fill the freezer! Haven't been real successful at getting much sinew from the tree rats either... ;D

Looks like you got yerself some good partners there Chad ;D. If you can hit squirrels not once, but twice on purpose - you should have no problem with the deer.

I think deer are a bit harder for my little buddies to tree.... ;D  But, I hope to get close enough on my own soon enough.

The number of squirrels I have hit on purpose is far less than the number I have missed (not on purpose), but I figure the more I try, the better it will get---and the better I will get at making arrows... ;)

Nicely done Chad.  It does seem like we have a bumper crop of Squirrels this year.  They're everywhere.

John,

I haven't had any opportunities for a shot yet, either... With the move and building the cabin, I haven't had much time to scout like I normally do...especially with ALL NEW hunting grounds!

I am ready to go for trapping season, though! Guess it may be coon and opossum for the dinner table this year... ;D
