17 HMR Squirrel Shooting Video

Thursday, January 14th, 2010

I finally broke down and spent the day going through dvd’s from last year’s squirrel shooting trips. I didn’t try to do anything artistic with this video, but it does quell the basic need for seeing squirrels getting whacked… I’ll try to get up some more videos in the next week or two, so check back.

All of these squirrels were shot using my Savage 17hmr accutrigger, with Hornady 17gr ballistic tip bullets. On a side note, there’s nothing like having a video camera mounted on your rifle to show you when you jerk the trigger.

Over 800,000 Squirrel Video Views

Tuesday, December 1st, 2009

I was looking at the squirrel shooting videos that I have on Youtube tonight, and decided to see how many video views we’ve had since the first squirrel videos went up. According to the viewing records, our squirrel shooting videos have been watched over 800,000 times in the last 2 years.

We get almost 1,000,000 page views a year on shootingsquirrels.com, it kind of makes me wonder how many people we’ve sent to other Youtube squirrel videos from this site, since we post quite a few from other people too. You’re probably wondering why I’m wondering this…. Or Not.

Well, the reason is because I’m looking for a new title for myself, like “Squirrel Video King” or the “Squirrel Splatter King” or just “That Weird Ass Guy Who Films Dead Squirrels”…

What do you guys think? (Or should I just start taking my Meds again and forget about it?)

ShootingSquirrels.com Picks Up New Sponsor

Friday, November 27th, 2009

The North American Hunter magazine is now offering shooters on ShootingSquirrels.com the chance to Test Free Hunting Gear…And Keep It!. So, if you are interested in getting a free issue of North American Hunter, which is a magazine that fosters an appreciation of the outdoor heritage and the relationship between hunting and conservation, as well as provides how-to editorials on big game hunting, small game hunting, upland bird hunting and waterfowl hunting, as well as giving you the chance to test hunting gear, then check them out. Also, if you join their hunt club testing group, you get free gear to evaluate and keep. They’ve given away more than $3,000,000 worth of outdoor and hunting gear this way, and with the cheap crowd we have around here, that should work out perfectly… LOL

Dead Squirrels Make Me Happy!

Thursday, November 19th, 2009

I was driving by one of the parks in town today and heard a crunch. Since I wasn’t paying any attention to what the heck was going on around me, it startled me. Which made me realize that I was daydreaming and could have run over 3 handycapped kids and a church lady without even knowing it. BUT, lucky for me, when I looked in my rear view mirror, what I saw was a squirrel trouting on the street behind me.

Those of us who shoot squirrels on a regular basis know that if you get a perfect head shot, and take out the brain, (what little there is), the autonomic reflexes in the squirrel make it flop all over the place, and we call that trouting. It looks like a Marlin tail walking across the bay. LOL

So, obviously I’m so good that even when I’m not paying attention, I can get a brain shot on a squirrel with my truck. Dang I’m good! They don’t call me Squirrel Sniper for nothing… (OK, Yea, I named myself Squirrel Sniper… So What.)

Tuesday, September 15th, 2009

This video made me laugh, because it sounds like a tourist video. “Come to beautiful Kansas and kill our squirrels. They are just waiting for you, and we are waiting for your wonderful tourist dollars…” LOL
