ROFLMAO @ Billy! I once watched a bow hunter shatter half a dozen really good fiber arrows on an old growth oak doin the very same thing. . . . I gifure at prices around here he went through about $100 worth of arrows to run off a squirrel.
Fabs each to his or her own.. . . Yeah I took it in Jest bro, heck I ment what I wrote, but ment it in fun too. Last time I shot a deer I had plugged a squirrel not two minutes before in the very outfit I describbed and the deer stepped close enough I coulda almost beaned him with the gun
When I grew up when we went in the woods for meat we took whatever crossed our paths. It was not unusual to come home with several squirrel, a rabbit or two, half a dozen quail, and draggin a deer, and haulin a stringer of fish from the fish trap in the creek. . . .

I miss the old days sooo much. During the UBER short fur season in Texas you could add a few coons and possums to that list as well. I can't count the number of times we came home draggin enough dead critters that you nearly dropped over in the front yard.
I will never forget one trappin season here. . . . . oh never mind need to save that one for my book. . . .

Then I commended mirth, because a man hath no better thing under the sun, than to eat, and to drink, and to be merry: for that shall abide with him of his labour the days of his life, which God giveth him under the sun. - Ecclesiastes 8:15 KJV
"The gun has been called the great equalizer, meaning that a small person with a gun is equal to a large person, but it is a great equalizer in another way, too. It insures that the people are the equal of their government whenever that government forgets that it is servant and not master of the governed." - 40th President of the United States Ronald Reagan 1911-2004
