There are a few reasons I think. #1 if you have a friend, or girlfriend and you say hey look at that squirell I shot, its not near as impressive as shoting a 6X6 elk or a 120+ buck. Second reason I like venicen a whole lot better than squirell or rabbit. Third reason, being a teenager I have so many other things I do besides thinking about small game season. It is fun, but when I go out on the weekends whitetail, bobcats, hogs, quail, and dove are what im usually looking for. I also don' t have much time. I have about a party once or twice a month, I play 3 sports a year, I have homework, I watch football and Lacrosse(the best) on tv when I can, stuff like that. GO TEXANS YA!!!!!!!!!!!!
