But still practice reloading fast and without looking.  You know, just in case you have a wounded squirrel charging you! 

Or carry a backup gun!
Guns have triggers. Bicycles have wheels. Trees and bows have wooden limbs.

You'd be better protected from the charging squirrel if you had that backup gun in the hands of a backup shooter that was standing off to the side a bit.   Otherwise that squirrel would already have you before the smoke cleared enough for a follow up shot!  Lol!  Nice shooter! Josh

W/ my .32 cal I was taught to shoot between the limb and the squirrel to splinter the limb and take out the tree rat that way.   :-\ I just always shot the squirrel.  I'm gonna have to get mine out and ready for next fall.  dp
