Squirrel Hunting: I want to go

[MCgrease08]

Squirrel season opens up soon and I haven't been squirrel hunting since I was a kid in PA more than 20 years ago. I'm looking to get back into it.

I don't really have any friends who are into it, so I'm looking for someone willing to let me tag along with them sometime this fall.

I'm in the Indy area but I'm willing to drive a couple of hours since I don't have a particular spot in mind.

Anybody game for taking me out?

I'll go once it gets a little cooler and we start losing leaves. Been thinking the same. May have a third to go with us.

Awesome. Do you you have a place you normally hunt?

I used to make the trek with my dad down to Yellowwood. A bit of a hike, yes. If you know of someplace closer I'm open.

From what I have seen so far this year, anyplace that allows hnting should have plenty of squirrels. I frequent different patches of Yellowwod. It can be tricky early with a 22. But that keeps me from cleaning as many.

Morgan-Monroe may be a little closer for you. Besides the company, you really don't need a partner. Squirrel hunting is a great way to practice your woodsman ship and patience.

I just got my .22 sighted in. I'm ready. Morgan Monroe forest is a great option. I also like Hoosier national but I'm also from Bloomington. What gun are you going to use. I been squirrel hunting alone but I think in a pair is a little more fun.

Take your tick spray.

Is there a certain area squirrel hunting is restricted to, for instance not inside city limits. Although I've heard of people shooting them inside city limits as pest animals... Sounds like a fun trip

Im game to go if a few guys wanna get together. Im open to making it a camping trip also.

I've got a 10/22 and a 12 gauge, so I'm open for either.

You'll eat less hair if you use the rifle. Less lead to bite into as well. I missed the opener this yr to play nurse to the wife after surgery. Maybe get some next Saturday.

Nabbed my first this past Wednesday. The undergrowth and foliage were thick near Brookeville lake. As were the heat and mosquitos! Overall a fun, if sweaty, day in the woods.

Saw a few rabbit hopping around and a couple of doe too!

We got 12 opening day in green county at a friends. I thought about going to yellow wood also. I haven't been since I was young. It was the first place my dad took me when I was 5 so 20 years ago.
