How to squirrel hunt
Hawkdancer:
Russell, post pics and have good hunts! Make meat!
Ed, never heard of the teddy bear trick! Sounds like a good idea in big enough woods.

Just remember even if you aren't seeing any doesn't mean they aren't there. If you sit or hide and quit moving for 15 min they will appear. You can almost set your watch by them where I hunt. After a bit they get comfortable with the situation and won't pay attention to where you are. On a side note as a kid I had a little feist dog with two different color eyes. Best squirrel dog a kid could have had and way better hunter than myself. Almost seemed to know which ones I could get and which ones to leave alone. Have fun and enjoy mother nature. And yes they are tasty.

Many times a squirrel will circle to the back side of the tree to hide. Stay still for a few minutes, then throw a rock or stick behind the tree and the squirrel will circle around to your side of the tree away from the noise and hopefully offer you a shot.

Huh. That’s a good idea bentstick!!! Tomorrow is the big day. First hunt alone! I’m gonna be out most of tomorrow. Hopefully I make some meat!!!!
