OH NO!! Absolutely not! The Colony is a rescue community. Elders are on an endless quest to bring the members to a higher state of consciousness. The youths like #15 are particularly troublesome but the efforts never stop.Can you be able to hunt in the colony? haha
Cruiser, the Colony isn't a brand of wood chipper is it?...............Asking for a friend.OH NO!! Absolutely not! The Colony is a rescue community.

Good luck, Fred.Tomorrow is opening day for Florida 2024/2025 hunting season. New this year is year round squirrel season on private property.
I'm ready to go. This will definitely be a first for me, hunting squirrels in July. I will be in the woods come sunrise. I've also see them between 3 and 7 PM for the last week and a half. I'll try that time frame also. I'm fixn to hit hay. I'll report back tomorrow one way or the other.

That’s totally awesome. Good on you.Thanks for keeping me as a member, altho I don't think I have contributed much, just lurked a bit. But I like to use an old T/C Hawkin 50 cal that was given to me with a rotted bore. I reamed the bore out taking out what was left of the rifling as well as the pitting, making it a smoothbore. A charge of black, some newspaper for wadding, shot, and more newspaper wadding over the shot. Works great on squirrels. My boys and I used to go on "survival" hunts back before they married and moved out. We would take no food, just muzzleloaders, accouterments, and camping gear that would fit into backpacks. Squirrels were always on the menu, but on one outing we saw absolutely nothing for a whole day. Finally we took a few at the end of a long day. Grilled over a campfire with a little salt and pepper. I swear it was the best thing I had ever tasted!
Thanks Jim.It’s hot and humid here in PA. You have my respect squirrel hunting in Florida in July. Go gettum Fred!!
Glad you had some action buddy! Sounds as if you have an area with some targets! Good luck on your next "grocery shopping trip".I did make it out to hunt on 1st.
I saw 4 squirrels total. 3 of which were out of range. I was able to get a shot at one of the 4. He was in an oak tree about 15 yards plus, about 30 feet up on a big limb. As he made his way along the limb he was straight in front of me. He stop I had the Crockett shouldered, hammer pulled back just as I had him in my sights, he started moving again. The limb had a twist to it which went to my right, I kept him in my sights as I turned, I was almost at the point that in couldn't turn anymore. He stopped, had bead on him. I squeezed the trigger, and he was falling. His back to the ground belly up.
I thought great I got him. As he was falling he hit some small branches and twigs, that little dude grab a hold of of some of the twigs, stated climbing, I thought what the heck. He made his way to the tree itself. Climbed up to the top, going from tree to tree. He shook like a wet dog looked around and haul a..
I either just grazed him or possibly barked him. He showed no signs of being hit.
I will be going out later this afternoon, and tomorrow also. Hopefully I'll get one. Till next time.

Hope all have enjoyable 4th!
I'm with Jim. Ive got a brisket on the smoker right now. It's so hot and humid the tops of my toes are sweating. Makes me wish I wasn't such a feral heathen when I was younger as I'm probably bound for hell. Ive heard it's hot there too. Ice cold Budweiser helps a little.It’s hot and humid here in PA.

I have a slab of ribs going right now.I'm with Jim. Ive got a brisket on the smoker right now. It's so hot and humid the tops of my toes are sweating.

Nothing like cooking for the family in a traditional way! Lot of work smoking a brisket, but worth it. I figger if I drink one glass of water to every bottle of Bud, I should be safe. What is it the kids say now and days ? "Hydrate or die". I'm rooting for you to enjoy some fried squirrel like ma and grandma used to cook and wash it down with a glass of mead in true feral fashion.I have a slab of ribs going right now.
It's hot but I'm under the shade of my hickory, and as far as an Ice Cold Budweiser my thought is peeling, and I will take care of that soon.
I plan on going out late afternoon and try some. I have the Crockett Rifle leaning against the tree just in case!
