Missouri's 2023 squirrel season begins!

It's the Saturday of Memorial Day weekend and that means it is time for me and Ole Betsy, my 12 gauge cylinder bore, to head to the woods for Missouri's squirrel season opener. I have been seeing a bunch of young grays running around the house so I decided to bring a couple in for dinner before I started my chores. I killed both of these within 100 yards of the front porch and I could have easily killed a half dozen if I had had the time. While I was cleaning these two, there were three or four messing around in the trees around me. I might visit with them later this evening.

Life is good!

Nice going! Congrats.

Saw a bunch of chipmunks today, and 2 squirrels. Being as I saw them at meramec iron works,I decided it would not be prudent to shoot them…..

Good use of a holiday morning. I'm still recuperating. but enjoy folks posting photos & stories of their adventures. You gonna fry or boil them bushytails?

I wasn't going to hunt this morning but after I ran my errands the young ones around the house just kept tempting me. So I added a couple more to the freezer.
