Got to get out squirrel hunting yesterday morning. Only saw 5, but was able to get 3 of them.
The 2 fox squirrels I got head shots on, the gray squirrel I shot off-hand in the food plot as I was walking out. With the way the scope was bouncing around on him at about 60 yds, I figured a mid-body shot was my best bet.
Gotta love the little .17 HMR! There's something satisfying about picking up a squirrel that's had the majority of their head "evacuated".
After I got done hunting and got the squirrels cleaned, I set about taking some stands down and moving them. Had a ladder stand that was up that wasn't in the best of spots and hadn't been used in years. Where the tree had grown, it had tightened the chain up, lifting the top platform free from the ladder portion. Took my climber down with me and used it to go up the tree to loosen the chain enough (once I finally got the lock off) to get the sections back together. Got it down, taken apart, and finally moved up to the ridge where I normally hunt. I set it back off the bench in a spot where I've never seen a deer come through with plenty of cover up near the platform. Got a good shot to the areas where the deer normally come through though.
Went to move another stand, a hang on, that's been up for several years as well, but wasn't able to. It's going to take more than my climber to get up that tree!
While I was up on the ridge putting up the ladder stand, I put out a little feed and a flavored salt block to go along with the mineral block that was up there.
My brother sent me a picture last night from a camera with the subject of the email as "You're not going to believe this!"
Being the usual pecker-wood that he is, he put in the email, "Not even gonna tell you where. You wouldn't believe me anyway."
He's been known to pull a fast one on me in the past with stuff like this, so we'll have to see how this one shakes out. Seems kinda fishy though. If it had been one of our cameras, why did he take the time to remove the camera ID and date/time stamp down at the bottom? If it is one of our cameras, I hope that bugger comes past me next weekend.
The "bad" news though, right now they're calling for rain next weekend from the hurricane that's down south right now.
Guess we'll have to wait and see what kind of track it takes. I really don't like bowhunting in the rain because of the chance of it washing away the blood trail (had it happen once before). But regardless of rain or not, I guess I'll be perched up in my little ladder stand and see what I can see.
I was earlier in the year, but now I'm not. Our squirrel season opened this morning, but because of other things going on, I wasn't able to go. 
It may be from somewhere around the area, but I don't think it was taken on our land.
