My nephews have been after me to take them squirrel hunting for a while now. It has been a good 10 years since I have even thought about shooting any squirrel. My oldest nephew Kyle is finishing up pharmacy school, and his younger brother Kaleb is in his third year of premed. I haven't gotten to hunt with them for several years now and I figured a good evening squirrel hunting would get them back in the swing of things. We are hoping to do a Wyoming DIY antelope hunt in a few years once the two boys get some points built up. Anyhow, I have been seeing a ton of squirrel out of a blind that Dad and I built to deer hunt out of so I decided this would be a good a place as any. Unfortunately, the squirrel didn't get the memo this evening and we only ended up getting a few; one by me and one by Kaleb. I have always been partial to a .22 long rifle head shot for squirrel. Anyways, Dad and I must have built that old blind pretty good cause it managed to hold four of us up this evening!

Nice! I'll be squirrel hunting also since I haven't been able to get a deer. Seems like theirs more squirrels than deer lol! Check out some videos by Remington on youtube. Type in "war on squirrels" you'll get a kick out of them.
 
That's some good eats! Congrats! I've only been out twice this year for squirrels, but now that deer season's winding down they'll get much more of my attention. I hope to get my 7yo his first yet this year. Just got to get a gray to sit still long enough for him...
