So I decided to go hunting somewhere I had never heard of until today, kinda spur of the moment suggestion from the wife. Me and lil bro went. Nice little parking lot, alot of hunters leaving for the day. Supposed to be a great place for pheasant, but no one had any luck. There were some goats tagged and pen'd up near the entrance. Nice weather, a lil too windy for my liking, but good weather and not even an hour into it, saw the squirrel, chased it as it went up the tree. Waited, it peeked and then BOOM, Headshot. Time to look up skinning on youtube

keep in mind, small game like squirrels, rabbits, etc need to be gutted ASAP to aid in cooling the meet. Good eating.

You can hop but you can't hide. Yahi Bowmen. Its not how far you can shoot but how close to the game you get when you shoot. Sights we don't need any sights. Why waist time reloading when I can be making arrows.
