Lucky Squirrel!
« on: April 10, 2014, 07:38:00 PM »
When guys tell me they are worried about hitting the barb wire fencing surrounding our feeders, I always tell them "just try and hit it!". This short video proves it can be done(after 1000+ shots).

Did you shoot at a squirrel with a judo point?  Try a broadhead.  They don't get tangled in wire so much, but wire can still deflect them.

Good example of how quick squirrels really are...

What are those little critters in front, looks like some kind of a rat?

Those are called cotton rats. Not as spooky but a smaller target than a squirrel.
Fence is there to keep the cows and horse from eating the "hog's corn".
