RE: Ever had a squirrel jump on ya??
My initiation into hunting was "stump sitting". That was how hunting deer was taught to me. One frosty morning I saw a squirrel running up the fence line I was sitting on. I didn't move and sure enough he jumped up on my lower leg and stopped. He must have known that something wasn't right because he just stopped. When he figured it out he didn't stick around long to see if there were any handouts! That didn't freak me as much as the Owl that buzzed my face at about 10 feet before it flared off while I was sitting in my treestand though!
