RangerClay Posted August 15, 2006 Report Share Posted August 15, 2006 Re: Squirrel Contest Question Thread [ QUOTE ] WOW !! 57" ,,, now there's some length.... [/ QUOTE ] And don't you forget it when you are chasing those bushytails this fall. I have already been feeding my squirrels and getting their tails nice and long in my squirrel food plot. I got some of that new feed from Biologic called Treerat Delight. Next year I am starting another food plot with the new feed from the North American Squirrel Institute. Their blend is called Bushytail Banquet. I am growing bigger and better squirrels. I am also starting a QSM (Quality Squirrel Management) program to see that smaller squirrels get the opportunity to live to maturity. With food plots, proper nutrition and a sound management program it will also allow the smaller squirrels to live an older age and grow bigger, better, and bushier tails. My squirrel tails will be sooooooooo long. Boone and Crocket will have to recognize them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RangerClay Posted August 20, 2006 Report Share Posted August 20, 2006 Re: Squirrel Contest Question Thread [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] when is the deadline to sign up?? What are the rules?? How are points scored? Do we submit what we shot by pic or honors system? [/ QUOTE ] 1 Deadline is the 15th 2 Rules? Don't break any game laws. 3 You take a tape measure, lay it flat, take your squirrel with the tail out, stick the tape measure right at the base of the squirrel's tail. Make sure the tape measure is not obscured, take a picture of the tail and I record the length. Each team combines the total lengths of 5 tails. Top total tail lengths wins. 4. Both. [/ QUOTE ] Question about your response #4. Are you saying that we don't have to submit photos this year? I cleaned all my squirrel pictures out of picture post. Maybe you can retreive a picture of how we measured last year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RangerClay Posted August 21, 2006 Report Share Posted August 21, 2006 Re: Squirrel Contest Question Thread [ QUOTE ] I can't retrieve your pic if you deleted it. [/ QUOTE ] No-no! That's not what I meant. Can you find any pictures/entries from the last contest so the newbies can see how to measure the squirrel tails.

Tominator Posted August 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2006 Re: Squirrel Contest Question Thread It would be easy if we had that one feature, but now the galleries are real cumbersome to work with, so I won't be searching around for old pictures. I guess we'll just have to wait for the first pic so we can hack on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sort of did it all by myself last year. My partner couldn't get his pictures loaded. Fortunately my squirrels were enough. I think you need to start a squirrel food plot.
