I am going to do like you guys said and look for hickory nuts. Also try and cover some more ground. Thanks! Will keep you all posted.

Hunt at least once every weekend starting 10/1.
Kill 1 squirrel this year with my boys in tow.
Trap at least 1 coon this year. Took my trapping course at home last year so this will be my first year running traps. I am hoping for 2 actually so I can get caps made for my boys.
Shoot one deer with my boys by my side. It truly gets no better than having them around to enjoy the moment.

Wait, you can do the trapping course all online this year?

Funny you say that. Wife and I took a long hike through Ward Pound Reservation up in Pound Ridge last weekend and saw exactly zero squirrels the entire time there. And yet, most people I know stomping around the woods are talking about good acorn crops.
Maybe they are hanging in the still-thick
Canopies dropping nuts remaining unseen.
Good luck and welcome aboard

@crappyice It’s bizarre, right? Thanks for the welcome.

Pretend your deer hunting. You'll have squirrels after your nuts.
@mowin I normally do just this. Find a squirrely looking spot with lots of hard mast on the ground, and sit tight. Normally after a few sits like this I’ve got two or three squirrels in my pouch but have yet to see a tail flicker with this strategy this year.

Hi guys. I have gone out 5 times since Sept 1, on multiple different pieces of public, sometimes for the whole day, and have seen exactly one fleeting glimpse of a squirrel. Other hunters downstate have told me they’re having the same experience. Has anyone here had luck with squirrel this season? Or did they all die of Covid? The only place I’ve seen squirrels on the regular is in my yard in the city, and so my freezer remains empty.
Anyone have any hot squirrel spots they wouldn’t mind sharing in Orange / Putnam counties? Or fuck, just lukewarm squirrel spots?
Anyone tried Stewart for squirrels this season?
Thanks guys, hope y’all are having more luck than me.

Got my first public land bushy tail yesterday afternoon in 3P! Figured it was a too warm for deer to be moving much, thought I’d scout a new-to-me piece of land and see if there were any squirrels around.
