I never thought of them as "hybrid" or cross breads but it is what I have here in southern Illinois, not like the fox squirrels I got as a boy northwest of here. These are small and fast. Definitely a challenge to hunt especially when you are going for head shots.
Darn
I can hear them sizzling in butter in a hot iron pan!

I always liked them cooked in water. Then sear them in frying pan with butter, mushrooms, peppers & sweet onion.
Yes! Par Boil first then put in a HOT cast iron skillet along with mushrooms, peppers, Georgia "Vidalia" Onions! Then have a side of carrots, turnips Potatoes and Collard Greens. (cabbage/spinach/Swiss chard) Italian seasoning, pepper, Lawyers Salt and some Cavender's.
Cover and let steam for a few minutes!
How does everyone skin a Squirrel?
Cut around the back feet/tail-stand on them and then pull the whole skin off??,
Would like options. I am going to shoot 50 to 100 soon.

Got my savage mark ii out a few days ago and sat at the dining room table with the patio door open doing some "long range" squirrel snipering. Then my wife ruined the fun and told me I had to go outside! First time I tried out past 100 yards at squirrels with subsonic rounds. Took the first 10 shots or so to figure out hold over and hold for wind (I need a range finder next time) embarrassingly I missed more than I connected but they were far enough away that they didn't know they were being shot at. I learned a lot though.
Beautiful Rifle!!!
Thanks. I picked up the used Boyd stock off eBay a few years ago and it really transformed it from the black plastic one it had before. Now it's a rifle to be proud of!
Really nice-looking Laminate Stock and rifle!!!
I should take some more picture, but already posted some. We have a pair of Red Tail Hawks living on our property and every squirrel we shoot; we leave on a big stump. Seems like within minutes of shooting a squirrel and placing on the stump they are gone.
Seems like the birds know what is going on from hearing the rifle shot.
When I hunted Chucks in NE PA right after we shot the Buzzards would come over to our area/field and land on the shot chucks for a meal.

I was in a hunting club one time and the buzzards learned to come to gun fire. I shot a nice whitetail doe on a gas line and honestly a buzzards landed on the ground 3ft from my deer while it was still kicking! I had to get out of the shooting house and wave my orange hat to scare it off. Rediculas! Lol
