One of our readers dropped me a note with general information about squirrel hunting in the area around Christmas Valley, Oregon. This includes the area around both Fort Rock, Oregon and Christmas Valley.

If you are interested in shooting sage rats in the area, here is some general information to get you started.

• Take hwy 31 east off of 97, just south of LaPine to Fort Rock.
• In both Fort Rock and Christmas Valley you just need to knock on doors (they all say yes, except the ones with No Hunting posted.
• Skip the grass fields, go for the alfalfa.

The Verminator and I went squirrel shooting in Enterprise, Oregon today. I was going to say squirrel hunting, but since I’m not eating them, it’s just squirrel shooting.

I will start posting video tomorrow, including the video of a nice fat ground squirrel being exploded by a .17HMR ballistic tip. Last time, I just made one big video, so this time I’m going to post a bunch of small ones, with only 2-4 exploding squirrels in each segment.

I will start with the 17 HMR video, since that’s what everyone on youtube and google have been clamoring for. If the video of the squirrel getting shot with the 17 doesn’t end up being any good, I will go to the park and shoot one with my 17 so that everyone is happy.

Disclaimer: The tape may also contain scenes of my arrest. How freaked out do you think the cops would be responding to:

" 1 Adam 12, 1 Adam 12. We have a report of an old, fat, white male, eating Twinkies and videotaping himself shooting squirrels with a high velocity rifle in Pioneer Park. He is armed and assumed demented, please use caution."

Can you hear the dueling banjos?

I was hoping for some good videos from the guys who went squirrel hunting in Enterprise on Wednesday, but it seems that when certain people see squirrels, they forget they have a video camera and just run willy nilly killing squirrels until they are either spent, or all the squirrels are. I personally think that if you can’t be responsible, and kill a few squirrels on video before you begin the main dance, then you shouldn’t be allowed to hunt squirrels in the first place. (So There! You people know who you are.)

Now the Verminator and I have to leave Walla Walla at 5am on Father’s Day and drive to Enterprise to get the tape that the guys who went on Wednesday should have gotten. That means that our poor little children won’t have their fathers to give gifts to, and to take out to breakfast, on Sunday with all of the other fathers in Walla Walla. (The crap I give up to be a good squirrel hunter is unbelievable. You people should be really grateful.)

I’m headed to Unity again tomorrow to shoot a few more squirrels. I wanted to just hang out at the house and fix the messed up video about counting squirrels, but my brother-in-law, the Verminator, feels the need to kill something. (more…)

The big squirrel hunt in Unity, Oregon was held on Saturday, April 28, 2007. There were 32 teams and the sage rat shoot went fron 8am till 4pm. I will be posting a ton of video over the next couple of weeks, so come back and check them out.

Here are some of the stats for the big squirrel hunting day in Unity, Oregon: (more…)

I’m not sure what they call their squirrel shooting party in Unity, Oregon, but I do know that the squirrel hunt is on the 28th of April, and that’s only 12 days away. Those of you who are going squirrel hunting and don’t have a hotel room, are going to have to sleep under your trucks. (I assume you have a truck if you hunt squirrels.) (more…)
