a few squirrels

[ftm 3,357]

after a quick chat with my mate [keeper] i was asked to pop thruogh to sort a few squirrels out .on arival two new fellas were waiting for me asthe keeper had promised them a day out with the air rifles and i was to show them around,they were standing waiting with rifles at the ready and before i could get sorted a squirrel was spotted ,for some reason or other both men were reluctant to have a go at it and quick as a flash my rifles out and im on the critter and even tho this was a very long shot i hit home to the amazement of both the keeper and the two fellas. well we set off and 10 mins later we entered a small conifer /oak wood and we split up but we were all in sight of each other,i spotted one basking on a branch about 25 yds away and dropped it with a nice head shot. i heard a smack and another one fell to the left of me, from one of the new fellas ,a few more were spotted but escaped into holes in trees . the next wood produced a few more for me and another for new fella. we regrouped and we had five so we headed back to cars and out of the corner of my eye i see one pressed firmly against a tree ,so being the gentleman that i am i whispered to the fella who had drawn a blank and 2 seconds later he broke his duck! he thanked me and we had a chin wag and they were amazed at the speed of squirrels and commented on my shooting skills i told them its all about practice practice practice we mooched about for a while later but we never got nowt
