[QUOTE="BillR, post: 1437430, member: 462"] Wow Grandpa would of whupped my butt if he caught me shooting squirrels with a shotgun. Lots of people did but not me. Grandpa :eek: Probably didn't like eating shot or something like that. :) My favorite way to hunt squirrels is in an area along a creek bottom covered with Walnut and Oak trees. Walk slow. I use one of those disk squirrel calls that sound like a baby squirrel in trouble. Listen carefully for them running through the trees or barking at you. Head shots only (Again Grandpa) :rolleyes::rolleyes: Stay away from shooting the big old males. Their Nuts hang below the branches :confused: and shoot only the young ones of either sex. They taste a lot better and are not tough. Remington pump .22 loaded with standard load .22 LR's (lot more accurate than the faster ones) Best way to cook them is a coffee can full of Frying Magic breading and throw in the pieces of butchered squirrel and shake the hell out it. Throw them in a cast iron skillet over a camp fire of hot coals with lots of peanut oil and fry them till they float. I fed 27 people squirrel and fried tatters one sunday night after a weekend hunt and not one person complained about tough squirrel or anything else for that matter. Course some Tomato Beers goes good with it too. Gotta love those big red Fox Squirrels fed on Oak and walnut nuts and corn. [/QUOTE]
