Small Game, Predator and TrappingFrom shooting squirrels in your backyard to calling coyotes in Arizona. This forum now contains trapping information..
i have been out just a couple of times this year trying to bear hunt and i have found the best way to squirel hunt just use a climbing stand take your rifle and a big stick if they know that you are after something else they will just come to the tree you are in. use the stick to wack them. everytime i have hunted this year i have had at least 5 to 10 just sit near me and bark untill they got tired and then the next one would take his place this will drive you crazy
if they know that you are after something else they will just come to the tree you are in.
LOL! Ain't it the truth! I don't know many folks will admit to it, but I suspect a lot of deer hunters have been suprised because, while being distracted by the antics of a local squirrel, they have been suprised, or caught off guard by approaching deer.
i take a pellet pistol to use on the squirels and take my 223 and hunt over a fresh gut pile the 223 being for a coyote or fox and the pellet pistol for squrels.

I must look like Rambo when I deer hunt , I do one of two things I carry my AR-100 and the 5 round clip and a 28 gauge and when I can't stand the squirrels anymore I shoot them with the 28 OR I just carry the AR-100 and when the squirrels get to bad I dont know how it happens but my 20 round clip all of a sudden appears in my gun and when I get a hit with that .223 theres not much to claim except maybe the tail
