natethebowhunter Posted February 21, 2007 Report Share Posted February 21, 2007 Re: bow squirrel yeah, i got two squirrels bowhunting this year. definately is good practice and it kills some time during mid-day when the deer aren't moving as much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbreedi1 Posted February 21, 2007 Report Share Posted February 21, 2007 Re: bow squirrel I agree, when the deer arent cooperating, go for the squirrels. Seems like I always seem them while deer hunting but when I go squirrel hunting they dissapear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tominator Posted February 25, 2007 Report Share Posted February 25, 2007 Re: bow squirrel I shoot at them occasionally while bowhunting if it's slow or they're really bugging me. I've never hit one yet though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaun_300 Posted February 25, 2007 Report Share Posted February 25, 2007 Re: bow squirrel Cool! Congrats on the squirrels. Only ever shot at one with the bow, while target practicing. I JUST missed him, any closer and I would have parted his hair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
