stupid squirrels
#1
well i decide to shoot at a squirrel yesturday cause i wasnt seein nothin, and i was usin one of the NAP shockwaves that i was goin to use for huntin this year,before i switched to stinger. But anyway i shot at the squirrel and missed low and heard a loud pop, so i went to retrieve my arrow and it was missin most of one blade and part of another, and i found what it hit and it was a small stick about 2in. in diameter with one blade stuck in it and u could see were the point had hit it on the very bottom of the stick,,guess that should teach me to look a little before i shoot so that it dont happen agian. oh well chit happens. (by the way i did not see a friggin thing that evenin and neither did my dad and he was dissapointed in the property cause we have only seen one deer on the property)

You won't ever see deer if you keep shooting that bow when you are deer hunting. AS I am sure you are finding out deer hunting takes a ton of paitence. Try to be still and quiet. Keep at it and good luck.

Hey man, what if some giant thought it would be funny to the point he couldn't stop laughing if he shot aboulder at the tree you had your stand in to watch you fall 20 feet to the ground?
Seriously and on the subject, I'm tempted many times to shoot at squirrels but in the back of my mind I alwaysthink, "what if that buck is on the edge of some brush pile looking this way just confirming clearance to come out?"

i've never had an opportunity to shoot a squirrel with a bow while hunting. but i've had many thoughts while hunting hogs with my 44. have any of ya'll ever had a squirrel on the same tree as you come and play hide and seek around your tree???

I have actually been paying alot of attention to the little annoying ****s the past few times ive been out. Now that all the leaves are off the trees the way they make their way aournd using the tops of trees and little branches on the ground trying not to make as much noise...interesting. Im going to be doing some late season squirrel hunting...the population has exploded where im at..need a little thinning out.

nothin wrong with droppin a squirl, good meat. But i've seen a 22 bounce off the skull of one so it fallin for a few feet aint hurtin nothing. Besides the only diffrence between a squirl and a rat is a fuzy tail... If i dropped a rat 30 feet from a tree i dount anyone would care...
