might be an unfair advatage with the thick winter coats on em' up here. their a lot bigger. i saw two rather large fox squirrels in a tree up above me when it was only 10 degrees out. one squirrel turned to the other and said," what's that nut doing out here, it's freezing outside!" then the other one said," should we bury him where he sits or carry him back to the nest?"

Man....You're "ON" tonight.....We need to call David Letterman and get you on TV...LOL

longstreet,
not only will you be the first to get a kill with it , but you'll be the first to launch and arrow from it. the varnish is barely dry on her!

Do you want to actually hit them with the arrow or just run it real close to their nose?The shaft and fletching going by so close sucks all the air out of their little lungs and they suffocate. Doesn't tear up any meat.

Just saying, that's how I usually do it.

Yepp....Ya ...have to actually hit them!
But the other way is allot funnier! LOL

Tree rat contest??? Great Idea. Extra points for video. Great Idea!! How bout extra points for any shot below 32 degrees. Due to the "I'm so frozen I can hardly pull my bow factor???"

How bout 3 winners, smallest, biggest, and most kilt.

and if they are "OK" with it. We could start Febuary 1st and end on the 28th?

Fine by me, I may even try to whack one or two, but if not, y'all have fun.

What about bait? Is it legal to hunt by the bird feeder?

D.J. Smith · Jan 12, 2010

I have two questions, Can you hunt them over bait?? Any extra points on the total score for a Texas heart shot?? LOL :rofl:

Dont know if bait is legal or not, but I could go with the extra points for the "Famous TX Heart Shot"
:bounce:

Do flying squirrel count for more points?? They are smaller, faster & harder to hit flying thru the air!! :rofl:

Man,y'all are amazing to me - if you can hit a dang squirrel with a bow.
I wish I'd thought of it sooner - it'd be great if you could show the kids at the youth hunt this Saturday what a real archer looks like! :bounce:

Arrow doesnt always stick. What then? I shoot bunny busters and judos at them....

OconeeDan · Jan 12, 2010

I'll throw in a letter opener for one of the winners.

Longbowdave, if your season ends 1/31, maybe you can get started? Or maybe you just need to move to Georgia!

I may have to go somewhere else to hunt. My yard squirrels know to hide when I have a bow in hand!
