    Thank you, Simon. That was a great watch. Your FX is some rifle, very accurate. I like the location of the pressure gauges on the side of the rifle. That seems a much better place than having to virtually look the barrel in the eye.
    Thank you and well done!

Not sweet creatures at all as we know, we try to knock off as many as possible on our permissions with the sub 12s to help our struggling song birds. Tremendous long shot with the FX, great to watch such accuracy.

    Do you pay attention to the wind direction when hunting them?
    One thing I learned when going after squirrels that are more wild, like not ones in parks that are really used to people, is that they’ll wind you just like other wild animals. They don’t pay too much attention to noise (cuz they make a ton of noise), but if they smell you coming, they’ll be way more likely to be way up a tree, or hiding on the other side of a tree etc…. Hardly anyone seems to think of this, I guess because they’re used to ones in the park, but if you stay a bit out of sight, and down wind, you’ll be much more likely to get close.

    • @simon6ppc246

      @jimf1964 Місяць тому +1

      @ Sorry, I didn’t mean the weather, but being down wind so they can’t smell you coming. I’m sure a lot of people don’t think of that, because they’re used to don’t consider them to be actual wild animals.

Great shot at 145 yds BTW. What thermal do you recommend? I have a Pard DS35 50 LRF Gen 2 Night Vision scope atop one of my 2 trusted S200's , drawing pin 30yds.

    Simon from Brisbane Australia. Love your skills and watch regularly. I am not good deciphering your accent however but will get it overtime. Love the countryside - reminds me of growing up in Tasmania.
