I wasn't having a lot of luck finding info about traditional rawhide lacing so I thought I'd go modern with my fist pair of shoes.

    Surely miss the squirrel hunting days.

    Joe, I picked up a new .32 caliber for squirrel hunting this year and I'm having a great time. I went out this weekend and got my first fox squirrel with the new gun. 1 for 6 isn't too bad for a newbie :thumbsup: Went out on Monday with the .22 because it looked like rain, missed one at 15...
