That's alright guys. Go ahead and laugh. Just wait until one of these man-killing squirrels gets you in his sights (oops - no sights).

I feel for ya. I got hit square on the top of my head by a large hickory nut that fell from a very high branch. It scared me so bad, I almost passed out. I have not been right in the head ever since and I used to be taller than I am now.

Must have disturbed the resident squirrels! Seems like their aim is pretty good also. LOL

If, you're scared of acorns, don't sit under an osage tree when them osage balls fall.

I didn't say I was afraid of acorns. I'm just willing to concede they have a right to a space of their own and I wanted to make sure that space wasn't directly over my head. Live and let live; just hope those killer nuts feel the same.

Bowhunting is a passion, not an obsession. Its just hard for my wife to tell the difference sometimes.

We used to feed the tree rats, for 3 or 4 years.  2 years ago, my wife had a "check engine" light on her truck.  Took it to the dealer and they said something had chewed through the wiring harness, to the tune of $400.00.  She was not amused!!!!  We had seen squirrels under her truck often.  Squirrel season was immediately opened and has not closed!!  "Kill them all, I don't care how, just do it.  And I'm gonna eat every one that you kill."

That's funny, I got whacked in the melon with a black walnut once.  I'll never hang a treestand in one of those again...
