Walker570 Posted July 3, 2019 Report Share Posted July 3, 2019 (edited) With the continuing success of a few members reducing the grey squirrel population I was wondering if we could not organise a day or better still a weekend where everyone, all members or as many of us as possible plus friends, syndicates etc etc., is encouraged to make an effort and be out in the woods killing these verminous creatures. Thoughts ? A ground hog day for grey squirrels. Edited July 3, 2019 by Walker570 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We organise squirrel hunts here sub 12 air gun only. Trouble is no one is patient enough to wait them out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clakk Posted July 3, 2019 Report Share Posted July 3, 2019 We take part in a group cull for Staffordshire and most are shot with .22 l/r or shotgun rather than air ,probably as the covers as thick as guts and u can bump foxes this way atb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mice! Posted July 3, 2019 Report Share Posted July 3, 2019 Might have missed the boat this year Nev, people having birds delivered soon means lots of places will be out of bounds, shame everyone wasn't out when they couldn't shoot pigeons for a few weeks. Things always slow up during summer, at least for most people, keep stacking them Nev 👏👏 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
