I am so upset!
I can't believe how often I see some dad take his kid out and let them shoot a bunch of young buck squirrels! I mean it's obvious those squirrels are 2.5 months old or less. It just makes me furious! I mean why wouldn't you wait for that squirrel to get to at least 3.5 months old. Also the squirrel needs to have at least an 8 inch tail! There is no excuse to shoot a squirrel with 7 or less inches of tail. I'm telling you we need mandatory QSM squirrel counties!
And another thing, how can anyone shoot a button squirrel and think it's a female? After all, all you have to do is run the squirrel down, turn it over and look!
A true trophy squirrel hunter knows that a buck squirrel big enough to shoot has to hike his rear end up while running around just so he can clear the tree bark!!
That's the squirrels you should be looking for.
I mean anybody can go out and shoot a1.5-2.5 month old squirrel. It takes a true seasoned hunter to find that big buck squirrel.

Them 2 month old squirrels eat a lot better. Old tough buck squirrels eat like boot leather.

Skinny for the win. Drag them little fellers through some flour then run them through a bowl with buttermilk and egg then back through the flour. Then some lard in a cast iron skillet. I been watching me some old dude on you tube. Makes me want to go squirrel hunting

That’s the reason Alabama can’t have trophy squirrels cause nobody lets em get old enough. People wouldn’t believe what kinda squirrels Alabama can grow. I see em all the time. Only me a few others have it figured out though.

Here is a chart with arbitrary lines and made up numbers 📊

This proves im right

Hit a buck squirrel chasing a doe squirrel last week. Would've loved to seen him next season. European mounted his tail!

My group practices QSM!! All of our squirrels live a long healthy life. Our squirrels die mainly die of old age. I’m pretty sure no squirrels have ever been harmed on our place. Our habitat doesn’t grow trophy buck squirrels.

With the right equipment, you too can bag the big buck squirrels. Buy the new Big Buck Squirrel Decoy Camouflage and become the ultimate Nut buster.
