Default RE: Results: First Squirrel Hunt

Congrats Boss! You may not have gotten anything, but just being out there is a sucessful hunt to me. You really should have sighted in your scope before you went out there. Next time, try using a shotgun for squirrel. It makes it much easier. I would use a .410 if you can get one and to an extreme maybe a 20 gauge with some light field loads. If you'd like, you can send me the picture through the post, and I can scan it for you and then post it. PM me if you want that to happen. If the squirrel ever runs up a tree like that again, you and your partner should stay on opposite sides of the tree. This way, since squirrels like to run in spirals up the tree, you and your partner can scare it to the others side of the tree, therefore providing one of you with a shot.
