Congrats! I have 36 years of Squirrel hunting under my belt and I still love it as much as ever! :cool2:

thats not a red that is called a fox squirrel

He's still kinda red! :happy0157:

Yeah,fox squirrels are HUGE red lookin squirrels.A red squirrel that is nearly all red,is about half the size of a gray squirrel,i bet they would be fun/frusterating,to hunt with a .22!!!!!

See! I didn't know there was a difference! I just learned somthing today! :cool15:

Thank you!

But really 13... I can't seem to kill a damn squirrel with this 22! WTH makes you think I could hit a smaller one! LMFAO! :D It would be fun though! It would probably take me back to being 12 years old again and stomping the wood floor in discust after missing! :happy0157:

Definately fun though cuz once I see one, my heart starts a pounding in anticipation of filling his ass full of lead! :D

I really enjoy your enthusiasm about shooting your squirrel. It's been 32 years and many, many squirrels ago for me but I remember well. When I was 12 I spotted my 1st and chased it up a hickory tree, then went round and round that tree, and so did the squirrel. I finally got a shot with my Marlin 22 and my squirrel hunting saga began. Get a good, squirrel eye accurate 22 and have fun! I always used a Marlin with open sights and just bought a Ruger 10-22 that shoots just as well. Practice until you can hit them in the eye everytime. I practice shooting twigs off trees or shooting weed stems. Or sometimes I line up empty rounds or acorns on a log and shoot them one at a time. Annie Oakly used to shoot cigarettes out of peoples mouthes. An easy shot for me, but no volunteers to hold the cigarettes!

Get a .17 HMR,then you can pop um at 70 friggin yardz!!!!!!!!!

i agree you need to practice. make sure when you are shooting at a squirrel you have a good rest

thatz awesome congrats on the squirrel! i remeber my first one, long time ago, but i remeber i poped off 3 shells of a 20 ga. the first shot killed him. he was fallin down the tree but i thought he was running!!! so i let him have it!! i was damn happy and proud u would have thought i won a million bucks...congrats again!!

Thanks guys! Every time I think about it, I get a big ass smile on my face! :D
