I am ready for squirrel season!
Well, not really. But after I get the Ruger 22 pistol sighted in with my hunting rounds on Weds, then I will be ready.
Mmm, they should be fat on the hillsides...

Good luck on a safe and successful hunt!

Hey guys.... You want to see a sight that is an absolute JOKE?!?! Go on down to Amelia WMA.... Go check out their range - if you can even get in the $*#&@&#$ parking lot!!!!!!! [:@]
I mean, come one.... {oops, temper is starting to flare} I tried to go there Saturday morning. I mean, like, it was not even 9:30am!!!!!! What - does some rod 'n gun club come in and Bogart the entire range on a Saturday?!? I couldn't believe it! The skeet range parking lot was jammed packed.... There were two cars at the archery range...., and worse yet - the rifle range overflowed in capacity and there was a $*#&@%#$! LINE!!!! [:@][:@][:@]

Hm, I was thinking of coming through the gate leading to the range, but maybe I'll stick to the northern part of Phelps. In any case, I planned on being there at sunrise and heading north anyway. With 4500 acres, there has to be a quiet spot in the middle of the woods somewhere between the range and the manager's house.

Does it really get that busy on the weekend? How about once the season starts? My friend doensn't hunt (Doesn't stop him from bumming venison off of me or inviting himself over for dinner on hassenpfeffer night!) so he just wants a place to shoot black powder.
If it is that hard to get a place on the line on the weekend I may just have to pay the big bucks and go to Clark Brothers.

My friend and I tooled down there on Saturday to see the range, but the gate was closed. I know it doesn't open until Sept 1, but I figured the road might be open. I had never been to Phelps, I usually go to G. R. Thompson (top side for squirrels) but wanted a place I could sight in the black powder rifles.
I don't want you to give away your "secrets" (), but where's a good place to start looking for squirrels?

Just about an hour ago I thought of pinning one against the tree with the bow..while I was in my daily routine of shooting. Damn Tree Rats!..lmao
