This morning was the first day of squirrel season here in Ohio. Was cool enough that I had to give it a go. Limit is 6 but was warming up by the time I got the 4th so I came home for breakfast. One didn't make it into the pic.

Nice hunt, it opened here in TN. last Monday, been so sticking hot I have yet to go out after them little buggers, love hunting them with my 22 also. :) I like hunting them also with my bow but it is more like stump shooting when I do that. ??? Looks like you rifle is zeroed nicely. :)

Great fun and necessary to keep the population healthy. They sure can get out of hand fast when hunting stops.

Good shooting. That's a nice old Remington you have there too.

They were all grays. Didn't see any fox squirrels today. I hear you about the early season leaves. I saw at least 5 I could never get the crosshairs on cause of all the leaves.

Man, dont waste them skins! Perfect for making rawhide bow strings.

The Tails are worth .25 apiece or for credit against lures, from Mepps Spinner Company. Used to do that when I was a Kid. Just salt the tip of the tail, or carefully split the Butt end and remove the bone/meat and then salt.

Nice shooting! But now you can't have scrambled eggs and squirrel brains!:)

Congrats!
Few friends are goin' for them with the bows early next month.
