I sit at my fence and taunt them to come in. The numbers are low, my ammo is high, i may be looking for more furtile pastures so to speak. Have i won this war? Am i being lured into a false sense of security?

This is one of the all time most entertaining threads I've read on any forum.
I cannot help but laugh. I hope this war last as long as the war on terror!

You laugh, but this is a WAR on TERRORISM. They threaten sercurity of my property. They get in my barn they F with my sleds they stash pine cones everywhere. They plug up my downspouts. they fill my lawnmower with fuzzy crap. They eat holes in my water toys. YOU LAUGH, As i battle for my survival. Those who laugh at my plight give me new reason to fight this battle with more vigor and better weapons. YES Need some new weapons.............yes .........weapons...................better...............the fight must continue.................new weapons.....new technology........in my battle!!!!!!!!!!!

Squirel hunting has gone the way of the buffallo. Haven't seen one in awhile.

Soon just be romantic stories, off times past and the great squirel hunting era of our country. Back when a man could shoot two a day.

Been over a month since I seen one of big beasts. I have had to resort to chipmunk hunting. Smaller tails.



Actually somehas been tunneling in my barn flower and under the wall. Time to thin that herd too.

Need to work on my short game.

Missed 2 chipmunks and a squirel at close range, out of the kitchen window. Thought I did at least. Just shot at one. Went to see if I hit it. Found a dead one. Stunk.

I seem to be better at long shots. The one yesterday, I though for sure I had him in my sites. I most have had him. But not a confirmed kill.

The chipmunks seem to be more sensitive to me opening the window. I got the screens already up. Need spray some silicone lube or something in the track.

I dreamed of a squirrel last night.

Was at my Grandparents, my grandpa puts my Grandmas old cookies on the deck for the squirels to eat. There is one the size of small dog. I sat at the kitchen table looking at that fat bastard. With a tail as long as my... He was mocking me, as his belly dragged on the ground.

It would have been close, but I think I could have taken it in a fair fight. five years ago for sure. Three probably.

They keep retunnelling in the barn. I got a hard packed gravel, and the chipmunks, I suspect are undermining. Tunnel rats.

I keep crushing the entrance, but they got all day to open it back up. Need a job, welfare rats.

What pisses me off, if they went a few feet over they could just walk in.


I pissed around the hole tonight see what they think of that. If they open it again I will piss right down it.

I have told the OL. She might be critical of my behavior. Its in the corner.

Just last night, as I enjoyed a beer on my back patio, I told the Misses, how its been a month or more since I have seen a squirrel. She reply she just saw one. Saturday we discvored the tops chewed off her new flower garden too. Two if which of which already met an untimely demise as I was trying to get close with the lawn tractor.

Looked out this morning, and there he was the last red squirrel, in the wild. I quickly ran for my gun, which has been idle against the wall, with romantic vision of early pioneer squirrel hunts.

Slide the window open, nothing, get the screen open, three inches, he runs about 2 feet and stops. I had to hurry, 3" was all I could afford. I though of my vow not to shoot out of the house, after the dead stinky chipmunk incident. But decided that vow was not made of squirrels.

I raise my gun and fire, I knew I hit him. I run out in my underwear, into the swarm of mosquitos.

No sign of him. Then I look eye level about five feet away, in the tree. He was looking at me. I knew they could be dangerous when cornered, nothing worse then the death charge of squirrel. I raise my gun and fire, he runs around the tree.

I find there at the other side. Raise my trusty .22 again, smoke still rolling from the barrel, but he falls before I could take aim. He knew the feared squirrel killer had him. Why run, you will only die tired the squirrels say.

4-5 more shots up close to finish him off.

This ain't the army where you shoot them a mile away, you got to get up close, and blood all over your nice clean underwear.

Another confirmed squirrel kill, in my underwear. Two today. He ran when I opened the window. But he stopped in a tree down the hill. One shot. He ran to the other side and fell.


Just proves with responsible hunting practices nature can support wild squirels.

Not having as good of luck getting shots off at the elusive chipmunks.

Walked around the yard after work, no luck. Sit in my underwear, and they come running, nuts!

perhaps it's time to buy some new, holeless underwear....I'm pretty sure baiting chipmunks with your nuts is illegal...sure ain't very sporting!(or smart, what if you were to fall asleep and they made off with them?!?)

Chipmunk showed up I couldn't help myself. I know I hit him, he was legs up. But then he shook it off and ran. No confirmed kill.
