Finely got out with my S×S looking for squirrel and pheasant, walking on the edge of a corn field next to the trees. I had pheasants getting up 50 to 100 yards out but nothing closer, but I seen this guy trying to hide in the crotch of a cottonwood tree 70gr. 2f 1 1/8 ounce of number 5 shot works pretty good on squirrel. Got a shot on another one a couple hundred yards farther down, I know I hit him I could tell by the way he acted, but he crawled farther up and I couldn't see him. I sat for half an hour hoping to see some movement or anything else. I don't know if there is a den up there or he was laying in a crotch but either way I didn't get him.
