My first bowkill was a squirrel too. We were walking in to our deer stands and my B-I-L had one run in front of him and up a fence post about10yards away. He pointed it out, and I loaded up one of my arrow with one of the rubber bludgen tips. Drew back and put a head shot on him, with a load of gear on my back. Those tips put a massive head trauma on them, loads of blood. We left it on a stump to pick up on the way out, but something had taken it, and it was definatly dead, so something ate for free.
I got my second bowkill at his house. He had some rabbits coming in on the edge of a corn field. I used a bludgen tip on his crossbow bolt. With a 30yard shot the tip put a hole in one and meat in the freezer.

Back in the 60's and 70's. I would go out a just hunting squirrel before deer season and rabbits after deer season. I went out a lots of times with my old 65 pound recurve bow and woodys with a 9/16 nut screwed on the end and have taken my limit of 6 squirrel in Iowa. We all get together after deer season and go out and drive rabbits. I have see times 4 to 10 of us go out and get 20 to 30 rabbits a day and had a ball.
