I agree with Nomercy448.. If ya deer hunting, deer hunt.. If ya want to squirrel hunt, squirrel hunt.. Ya might only wound the squirrel and loose it if you are in a stand.. Ya need to be able to move while squirrel hunting, and there is more to squirrel hunting than just looking for them as they are in travel.. Squirrel hunting in my world is a 2 man operation.. A lot of squirrel nest have vines that you can snatch on to run them out.. One of you have the bead on the nest as the other snatches the vine..
