Squack Season in Ky

#1 Post by Carpdaddy »

Squirrel season opened here in Ky yesterday and I’m craving some squirrel dumplings! Not been hunting them much in recent years but it was one of the most exciting days ever in my childhood! Still love to eat them but just don’t do it much anymore.
Anyone still chasing them critters?

They are a heckuva lot harder to hit than any ol' whitetail broadside!
I would, but the wife swears up and down she would never eat one or allow it in the house. Wimminfolks...

In Missouri, our season opens the Saturday of Memorial Day weekend and I always go out and kill a mess to celebrate. I continue to work on them off and on through the summer with various instruments of death. I recently purchased a flintlock SxS smoothbore that I have been using to put them in the freezer.

Once fall gets here and bow season opens, I turn to bigger targets.

Our season opens on 9/15 so I'll continue to pile up the bushytails until then. They're starting to cut nuts here so it's a lot of fun.
