As crazy as it sounds, I miss squirrel hunting on my grandparents farm. They had a grove of hickories that just had squirrels! Some of the best eating too... My CZ 513 is a tack driver and its nothing to sit in that grove and limit out a few times a year.
I need to find some people to drag my ass out on some waterfowl hunts in the sleughs here. I've been in SD two hunting seasons now and have only hunted pheasants... I'm in prime waterfowl territory!

I hunt a few grouse- season opens September 15- but not that many. I'm usually pretty busy with the garden harvest and stuff until bow season opens so I don't hunt small game very often at all.
I've been fortunate every year- getting a deer with my bow as well as with my rifle every year in recent memory. I love bowhunting, and really enjoy that more than rifle hunting.
I like to pick ptarmigan and grouse on the wing with a shotgun.
Those of you who do black powder, I'm assuming you are going percussion cap and minie ball?
As a former reenactor, I think 60 grains and a .58 minie should be pretty good for anything smaller than a moose and larger than a dire wolf ;-).
Got my tags in the mail today. Can't wait till opening day!
