Bowbo and I got 4 and walked out with 3 nice grays. The 2nd one I shot had some sorta funky skin problem, (huge bald spots with loose hair) so we left him for the predators. Got 'em cleaned before the pics again. I do have a couple pics of head shots, but not gonna post those. :rolleyes:

Post up your head shots wont offend me. I like to see how it is in the real world. h.h.

We ended up getting two today. Mornings during early season is always better for us. I seen zero this evening but got some stands taken down and lanes cut. Squirrel season is also deer scouting season.

For the very short time I had to hunt this weekend, I was able to get out on Sunday morning for about 15 minutes and squirrel hunt. Right off the bat, not even a minute into the hunt, there was a fox squirrel giving me a perfect shot in the tree right next to where I was sitting. Well I shot him and that was over. And then about 10 minutes later another fox squirrel appeared in the same tree and I shot him and that was over. I got em both skinned and in the freezer ready to eat!!!
