60 days til limb chicken season....... #10025622 06/15/15 Joined: Feb 2004 Posts: 6,798 Indiana M maddog OP Campfire Tracker OP maddog Campfire Tracker M Joined: Feb 2004 Posts: 6,798 Indiana here in Indiana. Can't wait! Looks to be a bumper crop of the lil critters, based on the number I see out on the road, and in the yard. Hoping to do a campout down in one of our state forests, about 2 hrs. south of me, in Sept. Got 2 left in the freezer, and enough pressure cooked for one more batch of chowder. Not wishin' my life away, but come on Aug. 15th. maddog

I came up with the idea of a 2-3 day camp out, with not only members, but anybody that likes to squirrel hunt. So far it looks like we got 10-12 guys that want to participate. I went down there on a scouting trip, two weeks ago. the camp is remote[for Indiana], primitive[no elec], and has a 2-3 acre pond next to it that we can fish. All of it surrounded by state forest. Here's some pics of the place. I can't wait to go.! This will give you an idea about the place. if it wasn't so danged far to drive, I'd tell you to come on up and join the fun! maddog

I bought another ruger 10/22, so I can have one scoped, as well as one with a fiber optic peep sight! Brings me up to 4 .22s for squirrel season! maddog

We often make a trip though the Mo., In., & Ky. areas on our way to visit relatives in Va. and Pa. I ask my pal here in town about Mo. squirrel hunting, he is from the Springfield area, and he said the ticks were so thick, hunting was not fun.. The last tree squirrels I shot were in W. Va. probably close 15 years ago.. Big old fox squirrels.. Maddog, a guy can never have too many .22's.. Molon Labe

I do treat my hunting clothes with permithrin, plus I've been taking vitamin B and Garlic pills. The skeeters don't bother me much, but they may be brutal this summer, because of the rain. I do keep deep woods off around for just such occasions.... BTW, the new ruger 10/22 shoots just fine. maddog

We don't have them around here, just the Grey's. But back in the early 80's I hunted them around Garrett/Butler/Hamilton area's in Indiana. That was some fine hunting and a lot of fine looking Squirrels. I would be fun to do that again, but I'll have to be satisfied doing it through your posts.......you are going to post your hunts along with pictures.....right? hint, hint.

It was very muggy and the skeeters were rampant! Still the new 10/22 didn't do half bad. Need to tweek the scope a little more, but here is a 10 shot group fired pretty quick, off sand bags on the pickup. Not too bad for a 64 yo. with bi focals gettin' skeeter bit.

Mama let Dexter, our min pins, outside. He promptly ran to the neighbors and ran a fox squirrel, I have nick named Otis, up a huge soft maple. Mama came running in and said Dex had climbed the tree, looking for Otis. I went outside to look, and sure enough, there's ole Dex about 8-9 ft. up in the air, in a fork of the tree! The pic is a little dark, but you get the picture..... He decided to jump out of the tree. The pup is a crazy lil schit, but I'm taking him squirrel hunting this fall. maddog Last edited by maddog; 06/30/15.

My inlaws had one that would stand on his back feet, place his front feet on a big dog's shoulders, and bark in his face while the big dog looked at him like "What the hey?" I envy you that dog. It's killing me that the season is open and I have another eye surgery before I can see to shoot a rifle, but a good dog and a shotgun would be a game changer. Good hunting!

I've seen them a lot in the hickory trees behind the house and looked around there yesterday and found a couple hickory nuts they sampled. That's too early, the nuts aren't ready but the squirrels seem to be ready. Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

I will be getting out my CZ/BRNO 22lr's out for routing sighting in, along with my Browning Buckmark Varmint Special pistol. I like to get the pistol out when the leaves are thinned out for a real squirrel plinking challenge. dave

Can't shoot a rifle very well yet but can at least walk into the woods without hurting myself. Does a .410 pistol (Contender) count as "handgun hunting" or would I be a much-maligned shotgunner? Never mind, I'm going if I have to use a 12 ga. double. Those wascally squiwwels are in gwave danger.

Wasn't in the woods 5 minutes, and had two up two different pignut hickories, next to each other. The nuts were raining out of those two trees.

I shot my first 35 deer with a ML. I wanted to learn to shoot a flintlock, but was afraid to try it with deer. Soooo, I bought a Dixie Tenn. squirrel rifle in .32 cal., in a flinter version. I shot a lot of squirrels with that gun. But as I got older, I got away from the buckskinning, and sold the gun. It would be fun to do it again. Who knows, maybe it'll happen down the road.... maddog
