Good deal Clay…. Did you let him tote a shotgun? Lol He ain’t disabled, a girl, or a homosexual……….so no lol All kidding aside, I’m going to start him off with a.410 or .20 gauge. They need to have success to get them hooked in my opinion. He can always be a man and.22 them later lol

All grey squirrels.....
Where are those orange squirrels? Lol I killed 1 fox squirrel yesterday morning. Only one I’ve seen the last 2 mornings. Slowly over time the greys are taking over. There’ll always be fox squirrels, but the percentage in the bag around here has dropped a bunch over the years.

Nice mess there. That boy learned more this morning with you and he'll learn in a year at school. Now teach his mom how to make some squirrel gravy. Some of my best squirrel hunts were floating the Cuivre river around Old Monroe... I would float down the river in my Jon boat and shoot them out of the trees.. had a little female black lab that would retrieve them..
Swamp, the red's always get a pass. Seems like every one that I ever shoot is old enough to vote.
Ol dad Fox squirrels don’t get a pass from me lol. My wife can take one as big as a young coon with balls big as walnuts and it’ll be as tender as a half grown grey. My mom taught her. Thanks mom lol.

It's funny, where I live now, never seen a red squirrel, but 20 minutes south, it's all you see.
Proudly banned from the NTA.
Bother me tomorrow. Today I'll buy no sorrows.

Cool figured they be starting. Have not been out yet. Get the 541t out of case and see how I handle heat that’s coming. Have fun Clay and family missed the mulberry hunts due to issues beyond my control.

Any warvils? I usually wait till the last week of August to go on squirrel safari because the warvils are almost completely gone by then in my favorite bug woods “down south”, which would be up north for you.
I’m with you on the .22. Gotta make an important decision in the next few weeks… 541T, 452 American, or 52… hard to pick a favorite when all the ladies in the harem are so well endowed. I’ve never seen a warvil. If you wait until late August around here, you miss the best hunting of the year. Any good shooting bolt action.22 meets my criteria lol.
