Judos or grasshoppers behind a field tip work great. You can't hardly lose an arrow even in deep grass. We smacked some last weekend. I wander through an area that is loaded with squirrels, longbow in hand. After about half an hour, they won't come out to much so my buddy sets up and pick them off with his 22-250. Then we move to another area. The areas I'm talking about are places that are utilized for cattle grazing and this guy loses too many cattle each year from them stepping in the endless squirrel holes. We get to target practice as we help keep the population in check.

I love to bowhunt squirrel. Steel blunts work great.Broadheads are even better "if" they are on the ground.

Osage bow, birch arrow, Ace Hex Blunt...
