Wow.....Squirrel season open in May! I’m accustomed to Fall hunting seasons! I didn’t realize than there were Summer hunting seasons for Squirrels!
Good Luck and have an enjoyable hunt. Maybe you can take out a few Copperheads and a rattler or two while you’re out! memtb

You may have a tough decision on your opening day choice of guns. Nice assortment.

Dont like a scope with some magnification? No, too much movement in the eye piece for me,I get close enough that I dont need a scope. In the spring with all the leaves I can usually get right under the same tree they are in.

Shoot, I've been so busy lately I forgot all about spring squirrel season. Might be nice to spend a morning in the woods this weekend to relax for the first time in a while.

Keeping your eyes on the tree you can find more copperheads that way. Nice pistols!

I love squirrel hunting! I am blessed to live in a part of TX where we can hunt them year round if we want. We always go for head shots, too. Such good practice. Great eating, too.
I knew an 'ol boy who called anything that wasn't a head shot a "gut-shot." You could make a great shot through the ribs and damage very little meat and he'd say, "You gut shot 'em!"

Well no squirrel hunt this morning, rains coming down like a cow pissin' on a flat rock. This will be the eighth or ninth day in a row for this crap, not supposed to rain tomorrow until the afternoon so maybe I can get out in the morning.
