geten up early

[charlie cleveland]

got up this morning was suprised there was a frost our first of the year...any way got to the woods a little after daylite it was cold to me and must have been cold to the squirls also...it was about 30 minutes before i seen the first limb shaking. i moved a little and saw the fuzzy tail twisting on the side of the tree suddenlly he came into view i raised the old parker ten up and slid the safety off and fired the left barrel and down came no 1 squirl... i waited to go pick up the squirl and in about 5 minutes i seen a young doe deer rise from her bed shes was not over 50 feet away she started blowimg and stomping her feet.. boy was she letting ever thing in thr woods knoy i was there... i finally just had to scare her off and move on farther looking for another branch to move...i finally picked up my 2 nd squirl and hunted a while longer but the critters just seemed to have dissappered... those 1 ounse loads did there job and ther literally was no recoil felt... not my best day for a record kill but it was would have been a fine hunt even with no kills..it was just to fine of a day to set in the house or to work... charlie
