Well, just got back. Hit a little 6 acre patch that is full of hickories. No sooner than stepped in the woods, and had one barking. Slipped down through the woods and set up behind an oak. Boy, here he come, racing through the tree tops to see what I was. He got so close I had to free hand him, and it turned in to a heart/lunger. Definately a kamikaze squirrel....grin

Sat for a few minutes, and heard a squirrel barking on the north side of the woods. As I was working that way, one whooshed a branch in a hickory right above me. I payed ring around the rosie with that lil booger for 30 mins. Shot at him THREE times and missed every shot.... frown Got in too dam*ed big a hurry.


Went on and redeemed myself with a head shot on one eating a hickory nut. Went to pick him up, and the ground was covered with cuttings. First I'd seen this year.

All in all, I ended up with 3 for the day.
