Squirrel Number 1

[airedale]

Hit the timber late afternoon with the Kimber 22 rifle for the Squirrel opener and took my first Squirrel of this season. After shooting those tiny flies in that Fly Swatter Challenge with that rifle the Squirrel looked as big as an Elephant. Weather was beautiful and the woods had quite a bit of wildlife activity, saw a couple of Deer and a Gray Fox, was great to be out there.

Got number 7 this afternoon and will shut down the Squirrel hunting for a bit. The population has bumped up over the last couple of years but I still only allow myself to take one per hunt to keep their number half way decent. My Squirrel hunting doubles for scouting Deer, have seen a few Does so far. I have been seeing Turkeys but the ones around here are retarded and I have no desire to kill one.

Black powder up next, I will get out there but I really ain't in the mood for a Deer yet, that feeling can change in a heartbeat depending on the situation.
