Good Luck guys and keep the guns blazin'!

OH... to be fair to all our camo sporting, gun powder smelling brothers and sisters of the gun, we need to state what species of squirrel you shot as it is not fair for someone living in a region that only has grey squirrels to compete with a red or fox squirrel. SO... unless I am wrong, there are only 3 species in the United States that I know of... red, grey and fox? If you reside in another country around this big blue globe you are more than welcome to enter too... but include the species...

JUST LIKE BOONE AND CROCKETT! LOL this should be a truly official contest!

good luck and may all your spent casings and shells be on their mark!

I thought that Fox WERE red squirrels, also, in Colorado they have black squirrels that have little tufts of hair on the ears like a lynx, I think there called douglas but wont swear to it, I used to see them all over the place up in the mountains and now my folks have one or two that come to the bird feeder.

Lobo, a true red squirrel is smaller than a grey squirrel whereas a fox squirrel is bigger than a grey.

Been some pretty slim pickings for the month of September. Sure hope we see more (and possibly better) entries during October - especially by me!

Havent been on in a bit... where are the entries guys? LOL... I got skunked last two trips out to the woods, of course was hauling a 33 lb deer mineral block and setting up for deer season LOL!

If leaves would fall, I know there are some monsters down there, got my .22wmr and bushnell scope dialed in... I am ready to pop some squirrel heads! LOL

driftingrz nobody has entered a grey squirrel yet, so you could be the leader if your smaller squirrels are greys... plus a grey is better eating in my book, but we got mostly reds round here
