Depends on what they’re cutting. I’m a big time,, long time squirrel hunter; grew up in the Mississippi Delta hunting fox squirrels in river bottoms and hardwoods. Never killed a gray until I hunted in the hills. Ever eat a squirrel that been cutting cypress balls?You can taste the cypress ball in the meat. Or a grey that been eating young pine cones? Same gummy turpentine like taste to me. Fox squirrels have large musk glands under the armpits you gotta remove or they taste musky, especially the males. Young greys taste the best to me. I guess I just have a discerning palette. Being southern, I grew up on good cooking and real fast food- deer, rabbits, squirrels,ducks, and doves. They all run or fly fast!
