Went out a little while ago, do do a little scouting, to see if the squirrels were hitting the hickories, yet. 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 know where I'll be sitting, come Sat. am. maddog

It will eventually have to happen.

We used to have a member posting here that hunted squirrels with muzzle loaders, and Ben ( mtcurman) still dies, when he's in squirrel country.
It would be fun....

Back in my 30's, I was into buckskinning. 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
