On another note..when I was a kid..the state hired the best poachers(if ya want to call 'em that) as game wardens. Couldn't catch 'em so they hired 'em away from the business at hand. Most made very good game wardens...One or 2 just couldn't leave the life. One of the ones that turned into a pretty good warden..stopped me every morning he saw me during squirrel season(Oct 5-31). He just couldn't understand how I had a limit of skwerls or close every day before I went to school. It was simple and it was legal too. But I never told him.. We ate a lot of skwerl..and duck...and wabbits..some wascally wabbits Hunting wabbits was vewy vewy stwenuous. But not for a kid. BTW..I sometimes did exceed the limit..but understand..nothing went to waste.. Different time and place

After only hunting one single day last year because of my illness, I'll be happy just to get out there this year and hunt. That one day last year was terrible, and it was the opening day of dove season. I think I saw all of 4 doves and not a single one was close enough to shoot at. Such is life.
I've never been grouse or woodcock hunting, but I have seen a woodcock here and there. As far as squirrels go, I have only hunted them once and that was an impromptu hunt after we got skunked in the morning on geese. Funny how you can see tons of them while hunting deer in a stand, but trying to find a squirrel while hunting for them and they are nowhere to be found.
Was that your secret Skeet. Going squirrel hunting as if you were going deer hunting. Mind over matter? LOL
