    And why so?

    Ive really gotten into squirrel hunting lately and do it as often as i can. Its time to myself and I enjoy it. I get in the zone and don't have to worry about distractions. I've recently been hunting with a friend who would always boast... turns out he can't sit still to save his life...

    Also, what game do you usually hunt?

    Depends on where I go, but 90% of the time I'm with my old man.

    In Northern VA here. I know some farmers down around Elkton (back in the holler) and Weyers cave(45 minutes outside Harrisonburg) that don't mind if i go up on their property. They got everything down there, ducks, bear, deer, small populace of elk,rabbits, squirrel, turkey, coyotes(eastern) and feral hogs. So if I am on around the area ill go hunting during season. I'm not in any club. They do have them out there though.

    nice man im pretty jealous of that, ive literally got to drive more than an hour if i just want to shoot my 30-06 at a range, the place ive been squirrel hunting is right about an hour away too at a wildlife management area good thing is atleast in the last few weeks theres only been about 1 other hunter in the woods.

    not me. i typically hunt with my brother..or some friends.

    honestly, if it is a new place..i tend to get lost. i just dont have that inner compass regular folks have. i have some regular spot..no problem. i'll fly it solo.

    I hunt alone 99% of the time but always carry my cell incase I need help. Deer or bear I can handle myself but call for a hand if a elk or moose is on the ground.
