While hunting did a squirrel ever piss you off?

This story happened about a year ago. It's slow so I thought I would share it with you in hopes you get a chuckle.

Well, my story goes like this... I had been hunting this area all week and hadn't seen a darn thing. The weather was way too hot and the deer just were not moving.

Meanwhile, I kid you not, must have been 20 squirrels doing the Barnum & Baily thing all around me. These squirrels are wearing out the bean field. They are up in the trees barking at me. One hit me in the head with an acorn!

So I waited patently for the one that beaned me in the head to go down into the bean field. Here's pic of three of them, the one on the left is the Tree Rat from [beeep] that got me.

So I always keep one arrow with a judo on the tip for just an occasion. I beaned this squirrel in the rib cage at 31 yards & the judo tip stuck to his side. The squirrel, although jacked up, ran off in the woods with my arrow hanging out of him!

Ok! Let's see now, I'm out an arrow and I've been assaulted by a tree rat. I swear I could hear them all laughing at me. It on, like donkey kong!

Final score:
Squirrels - One arrow and a head shot on me.
Me: 3 tree rats down and one with a jacked up rib cage.

Needless to say, I'm done with judos.

I thought a few of you would get a laugh out of this one.

There has been plenty of times while I am deer hunting that I have thought about shooting a squirrel that has been barking at me for the last 45 min with a 12 guage lightfield slug!! lol
 
Squirrels will also tell you when SOMETHING ELSE is moving around too. I've had them tip me off to deer and coyotes and bobcats while hunting. Works both ways...

yes they tend to get at me so thats why i carry this one while hunting

its a spring powered airpistol and is VERY quiet and accurate and powerful enough to take tree rats from 20 yards and under
its in .22 cal and shoots the polymer tipped hollowpointed 16 grain pellets very accurate

When I was Antelope hunting with my buddy this year we were sitting in our blind and my buddy decided to break out some trail mix. Well this squirrel apparently smelt it and kept trying to get in under the blind then the little PITA started jumping up to try and get in the window so stupid us threw some peanuts out the window well then he ran up a tree next to us and kept barking for atleast an hour. Finally it gave up.
 
In the 34yrs I've been living here I've only seen one.Chipmunks are everywhere barkin their brains out when I'm hunting but when I go after them with the .22Lr not a peep.
 
crowpooper what type of air pistol is it?

oh, there it is, no pics came up with the orginal post

Yep I had one raise [beeep] with me deer hunting back in the 80's and I tried to "bark him" with a 300 Mag. When I hit the branch below him he went flying and never made another sound.
