I just shoot the Reds in my yard and the grays get a free pass,,,but in the woods,,,,all bets are off. The reds are always making nests in my garage, outbuildings ect, and they make a stinking mess,,so there a target!!! Especially around my deer stands. I don't eat grays much anymore but I used to do up a stew that was killer!! I give them to a bud of mine now that loves them, and he can't hunt anymore so he gets them. Hay,,,any excuse to go hunting is fine by me,and I still love hunting them,,there dandy practice. There not that easy a target ducking and diving around like they do,,but defiantly fun to hunt and great pratice.
And YES I have been squirrel hunting,,sense the beginning of the month when season opened. Any excuse to get out in the woods hunting,, works for me.
