Thread: Dang.

    Default Dang.

    Hey guys,

    Went out squirrel hunting yesterday and shot one in the head with my 10/22 carbine. Anyway, I shouldn't have shot it at all, it was just a baby, probably a year old, so tiny, barely any meat on it... I just feel bad, because it coulda gotten bigger, and I didnt NEED to shoot that one. Just wish Ida known it was that small when I shot...

    Sorry guys, I just had to get that out, Hope yall understand.


    Cheers,

    Joe

    It happens bud. No big deal. What kind was it? Are you sure it wasn't a red squirrel? They're kind of small.
    Don't cry because it's over, smile because you were there.

    Yeah ive done that before myself. I generally use a 10.22 ruger carbine. It gets the job done and dosent ruin the meat.

    Shot two rabbits and a squirrel with it last week =].

    Cheers,
