BountyHunter Posted December 19, 2005 Report Share Posted December 19, 2005 Just wanted to tell you guys about a fun afternoon spent shooting squirrels on the farm. We have an area of cover which the landlord has planted up, brassica and corn, the squirrels were nicking the corn cobs, running across a narrow track and into the trees on the right. JW and I had a couple of BSA springers and my son and JWs boy spotting. A good afternoon was had by all, the boys calling "there's one" and JW and I shooting away, I had a good kill - at quite close range one I could see a corn cob running up the trunk of the tree, it proceeded out onto a branch right in front of my gun, the squirrel put the cob down and gave me a good clean shot of his head, I can still see his mind going "...OH FU......" he swang upside down on the branch for a second before crashing to the ground with a thump, almost right at our feet. JW took shot of the day though, at about 30 yards and about 15 yards up - one shot - it made his day seeing it play rodent pinball bouncing off branches all the way down. Thanks for reading.
