Squirrel season opens September 6, anybody going? I think I may head up to some public areas and walk the oak groves, hate to be blasting away with the flintlock in the middle of my bowhunting spots at home.

I normally do my hunting for those in February - glad the season was extended a couple of years ago. Probably going to try for some dove.
The flintlock should do a number on them! ;D

I never go until early October.Still some late litters that aren't weaned until then.
I wrote DNR for DECADES pushing for an extended season.
Nothing else going on in Feb, no impact on squirrels, and they are very underutilized in these days of MONTHS of deer season.
I remember hunting deer for 6 days out of the year, and squirrels for MONTHS!

I may try some dove hunting early Sept at the new farm, seen a few over there. Plus I may want to just sit down there in the AM and see if I can get some pass shooting on the geese coming out of the Swamps... Just to many things to kill and not enough time to do it...

Well thanks davep!! ;D As far as I'm concerned, your the one that got the season extended for us. Now THAT'S funny! I send so many PO'D letters/emails etc to Annapolis, I think they go right in the trash can without even being read. Except the one they mailed around and folks posted up. I got grief over that for YEARS! Oh well, someone's got to give them hell: might as well be me. (Plus, I'd rather have it start 2nd week of October) Also been asking for a 2 week break between shotgun and ML seasons for decades: 1) let things settle down some 2) better chance of snow/weather 3) more kids could hunt over Christmas break Never heard a peep back.But I'll keep after them. ;D |
