The Squirrel game

Ok, so everybody gets all hyped up about deer season and all that, but some of us are not so lucky to see a deer every day, and so resort to shooting squirrels. i propose a new way to score these shots and compete with the other people, because everyone likes a good competition. Here is how it works (me and my buddies came up with this since our mini freezers wont hold a deer so we have to stay with small creatures).

Shooting a gray squirrel-1pt
Fox squirrel-5pt
Head shot-1pt
shot with shotgun-1pt
shot with rifle-2pt
shot with bow-3pt
grabbed with hands-50pt
shot with nut in mouth (must still be there during recovery)=3pt
every 10 yards distance-1pt

So today, i shot a squirrel from 30 yards with my bow. It was a head shot and it died with a nut in its cheek. therefore my score for today is 1+1+3+3+3= 11pt squirrel.

anyone else care to participate?

 

I shot and missed one today.... what do i get for that????

 

a goose egg

 

thats better than nothin....

 

I ran over one in my Tacoma yesterday. Can I get double points for that?

 

nah, just gross wheel wells

 

Run Rich!!!!!!

 

Haha this is a great game, i used to shoot em off my bird feeder, never did it for points just fun

 

How many points for a Black one?

 

I will keep you posted, I think it's a great game, how about keeping a running total for the season, and the person with the most points at the end of the season wins.....bragging rights!

 

if you are on the east coast, then 10. west coast is 5. midwest is 1 because thats all they have there.

 

if you wanna keep track then go for it!

 

you shot a squirel with a BOW?! thats pretty good shootin!
I need to pick an air gun to shoot them in my back yard

 

aaaaaahahahaha aaaaaahahahah aaaaaaaaahahahah aaaaaaahahaha aaaaaaahahaha aaaaaaaahaaahah aaaaaaaaahahahaha aaaaaaahahaha.....

Rich, man that liked to have killed me dude. Caught me off gaurd like that froot loop singing all over the screen did. thanks man.

 

I shoot 3-4 a week with my Diana RWS 48.

 

Here is my high squirrel of the day
Shot in the head with rifle-4
45 yards-4
Total 8 points.

I got 5 more but dont remember anything special about them

 

My neighborhood is infested with squirrels. I use a Crosman 1400 .22 cal pellet gun with a scope. I made a little death trap for the tree ratz. its like a bullet trap but filled up with bird food. My dog tells me when they're in the trap and I go up in th attic and shoot them from the window. Last year I averaged 5-6 a day for a week. Its safe because the pellets stay in the box and don't ricochet

 

Sweet idea, there are some places around here that buy the tails and use them for Fishin baits

 

How fast was it running?? I Don't belive it...You probably shot a real slow running grandpa squirrel!!..
