villaman 9,983 Posted December 6, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2021 This 300 Acre woodland is full of them October 2020 -April 2021 shot 230 odd squirrel . Been roughly the same for the past 3 years From the beginning of November so far shot 33 , hopefully should get out a bit more as I have finished most of my jobs for Christmas 2 Quote Link to post
philpot 5,016 Posted December 6, 2021 Report Share Posted December 6, 2021 I must confess a good wood is one thing we don't have on any of our perms, we do have wooded areas each being no more than a few acres so the squirrel population is not so prolific and the days can be good with squirrel activity and other times, simply nothing but we have pheasant feeders out and large wood pigeon populations so there are always other quarry from the same hides.

Feeders or general walk, or both? If the latter, how much of each? Sorry for all the questions! 1 Quote Link to post

Early autumn & early spring will walk around and shoot them from trees 1 Quote Link to post
C3PO 118 Posted December 8, 2021 Report Share Posted December 8, 2021 Thanks - my technique is just on the feeders at the moment…I need to revise that! 1 Quote Link to post
