- I load up my simple shot slingshot and head out for some intense slingshot squirrel hunting action in the woods! Slingshots by Simple Shot: simple-shot.com?ref=woodedbeardsman

After, I come back to the cabin and cook up my fresh caught rare black squirrel in cast iron using apples, potatoes, olive oil, woodobo spices, and butter to make a delicious meal!
If you think hunting squirrels is easy, just because you see them in your backyard, you couldn't be more wrong. It takes a lot of skill to hunt squirrels, especially because woodsy squirrels are much more cagey and alert. You will have more luck hunting squirrels from a treestand as they seem not not look up as often as they alert when approaching from the ground.
I used regular steel ammo for hunting, but it's advised to use heavy lead as it will have much more knock down power.
It's better to use a 22 LR however, but if you're interested in a challenge, for sure try a slingshot for squirrels!

Personally Not a fan. Kill it like the squirrel.
hey, nice video :) maybe hunting with blowgun?
Personally not a fan of the ASMR. You could do like Fowler does and combine multi-episode challenges into one long video
@@Invaderjason123 25/30 of my most popular videos each month are ASMR.
I'm here, follow me for leads about ASMR game plan :)
The squirrel at night was not a red squirrel. It's a flying squirrel
Yeah but they don't fly, they actually glide. Gliding squirrels is more appropriate.
@@markm4033 Yeah, they glide like crazy though, got a colony living in my barn roof. At dusk I've watched them jump out and sail 30' to a big wild cherry tree. Then they sail away again!
I thought so. They definitely are nocturnal.
Oooohhhh!
Came here to say this. I have a ton of these guys at my place in southern Michigan.
Before I watched this video I was thinking about how aggravating squirrels are while I’m hunting and wanting to shoot them while I hunt deer and u mentioned it as well it’s a damn good idea
Pretty cool I learned a few thing but honestly. Im gonna take the extra time to properly skin and remove bones. Cuase I hate that stuff.
Damn...nice Slingshot. I just wouldn't know what to use as ammo since we can't even buy led pellets
1/4" slingshot ammo
You can use marbles if you have nothing else!
Great video! Who makes the axe you used to remove the squirrel limbs?
I've been fortunate in that where I squirrel hunt, they're everywhere. I barely even still hunt them when using a .22 or 12g, I just walk through the woods kicking up brush to see what runs then I follow until they decide to give me a shot or they lose me. I would have to be more patient if I wanted to use a slingshot or my blowgun.
Yeah, it's maddening how hard this was.
Squirrel running around enjoying the day..... Why do I hear boss music?
That squirrel that showed up at night, looks 99% like a flying squirrel; look at the black lines (flaps) when he turns broadside, and his face looks unique too.
Ive been lucky to see quite a few in my life
That's what I thinks
Good thing Sandy Cheeks is in the sea cuz it wouldn't have been pretty for her right now
Thanks Roomer!
Fantastic video glad to see you get more into the slingshots Chris
The darts are soo much fun!
“Subscribe or not, I don’t care, I officially don’t care anymore” sounds like man who is tired of people telling him what to do, and has started doing what he wants to do. Good on you man
You sounded like bubbles from trailer park boys at 14:53 hahah great video man!!
lol
Dude I so know how you feel on finally getting the squirrel with the slingshot. I shot a lot of arrows at gar before I got to eat one with a hole in it! Congrats on the quick dispatch and the good food.
Now that sounds like a fun challenge!
@@TheWoodedBeardsman It was.
I’ve never been hunting before but I enjoy watching hunting videos. I’m sure it teaches patience which is something that I struggle with sometimes lol
I accidentally skinned a mouse once. I was pulling it off a glue trap but ended up pulling its pants down in the process.
Iv been shooting a slingshot in the woods where I live the skwirels will go to where I am shooting
the amount of disagreement in my friend group, when it comes to squirrel hunting... its been damaging my property. i tried to catch and release already.
Shoot the squirrels and eat them.
They are super smart.. they know to hide on the opposite side of trees.. huge cat and mouse game 😆.
Truth!
Why you think squirrels hide? If a squirrel is smart what is it thinking?
Nice brother
I am from Indonesia
I am have Vidio cooking in jungle🙏🙏
“I got my self a freaking squirrel” anyone else think he sound like bubbles from trailer park boys
Bubbles!
He sounds like any character from trailer park boys, it’s the accent.
Squirrels my favorite. Good job man 👍
Full Stop
I don't care 🤷
Bringing back the 0 f's about subs I love it haha!
Yeah, I'm done with the 'numbers' let's put together more challenges and keep expanding life.
I’m no expert but that squirrel at night looks like the flying squirrels we have in Idaho
That’s exactly what it is 🐿
I didn't know you only can hunt squirrels in hunting season 🤔🤔🤔
You should say Freakin, a couple more times, lol- I know, my youngest son use to say freakin every third word. I guess it could be worse-
I bet slingshot an squirrels are hard to shoot, they hardly hold still.
*To the Early Squad Reading: Who can’t wait till Christmas? All I want for Christmas is 2k Subs w/notis before Christmas 🥺
Squirrel hunt not easy It's small very busy thanks for sharing your video watching from India
I think that is a flying squirrel at night. Looks like it anyways
Black squirrels where introduced to Kent OH in the 60’s. They have been populating North America since then.
Nice, you got him. Great catch n cook. Fullstop. 👍
Take 2 1×4's nailed together in L shape. Drive #16 nail up thru bottom of L. Then take whole ear of corn an stick it on the nail. Up thru the cobb. Perfect, simple, squirrel feeder
Isn't the squirrel at night a flying squirrel? The tail looks more flat than an ordinary squirrel tail, and it looks like it has a retracted gliding membrane...that line above its belly....
Dude. Score on the bird feeders! I noticed your latest videos cover a lot of ground man. Wheel barrow race, you’re back is great full for the use. Glad to see you getting marksman with the scout sling.ha! Cruising naked and sunbathing in the tree🤣nice catch and cook. I just got 8 portions of woodobo from Zach. Rad Christmas gift to my bro’s. I’m gonna do a cooking video soon and talk and show case it. You’ve done the sling fishing, best bet is that simple shot hammer, way safer.nice autumn stew. This is a badass video you guys! 😃🍺🤙🎄
Good video.
Thanks
For not cussing. My daughter
Can watch also because of
It.
all i know is dont bring a squirrel out of the woods during rifle season in pa. Muzzleloader and archery are ok but the squirrel season ends during and picks up again after rifle season for deer
I would be after that Black Squirrel, not that many out there- I knew a guy that had a Black one and a White one on display....
I carry a blunt arrow topped with fluflu fletching, good for rabbits and squirrels, even birds if I'm desperate. A cheap takedown recurve is a good bet
I'll need to bowhunt them next year!
@@TheWoodedBeardsman try a blunt tip called the hammer, or a judo point. If you can't find them, get some regular field and glue either 9mm or 38special/357mag cases on. Or you could just grind the point off the field trip and make it flat. If you can hit golf balls you're gonna eat well!
Are you sure that was a red squirrel, Flying Squirrels are nocturnal, I think that's what was in your feeder at night around 6 minutes
Yeah, I think you're right.
Not sure but that kinda looked like a flying squirrel . They are nocturnal.
Cool!
Awesome video got my like and subscribe love to c more squirrel hunting tho not much of it on TH-cam
Blue Jays are pretty birds mate, are they common?
Yes very common. I have them in my yard as I type this
iron balls?? in my childhood we make our slingshot with wood and shoot rocks. Too much less carbon footprint
Squirrel gravy👍😃
Air rifles/bb guns are good for squirrel with minimal cost and nearly no meat damage.
Flying squirrels are the bomb! Kind of a cross between a Rat and a Bat. A lot of people never see them because they are nocturnal and are like little Ninjas.
Ne mogu da verujem da postoje ovakvi neiživljeni ljudi koji love ove jadne male životinje i još da vam je ovo zabavno i ukusno , fuj odvratno 👎
Uh. First I guess ?
Congratulations
What is that camo print called you are wearing in the stand at the 10 min mark?
I think I'm a try squirrls, they are plentiful round these parts. Everyday there so many black or grey squirrls. I'm going to get it with a sling.
Waisted too much food for hunting only one squirrel useless guy.
Sangattt kerennn bosssqqq
when you get bored....just go to the market and buy chicken
It's so fun to peel a snake inside out I love it and you can use them as a bladder for water
Edit: if you're good enough to be able to skin it without scoring it down the side that is which is pretty darn hard
Bowtech!!!! Good man. I love your videos buddy
Anyone have any ideas what my first hunting video should be
You should try the hatsan .25 break barrel
When you're deer hunting, tons of squirrels. When you're squirrel hunting, there's tons of deer haha I need to start bringing a high-powered BB rifle into the woods.
Is it okay too eat squirrels like you wont get some type of disease
Flying squirrel at night, pretty cool.
Good shootin Chris 👍
Thanks!
My dad and I used to squirrel hunt all the time when I was younger. Never successful with a slingshot lol. They do make a mean stew though!!
Super challenging!
Is it cooked? Well it wasn't cremated in a smoker but yeah, Kevin, it's cooked LOL
lol
Baha
Didn't sound like you hit him sounded like you hit the tree
That sling arrow is pretty neat. I have seen Dave Canterbury from whatever his channel is, show the sling shot bow and that was really impressive to me. Though I know he didnt come up with that himself. I saw a move from way back that showed the sling shot bow way before he showed his mods and stuff but that arrow is new to me. Pretty cool stuff there. Glad I saw this.
Mantap brother
Salam satu hoby
From indonesia
Are hunting with slingshot darts legal in Canada?
What would you compare squirrel with as far as the taste? How long did you cook it for? Can just anybody go out and nail one with a slingshot or you need a hunting license?
What size shot do you use in your sling shot 3/8
From my experience, hunting squirrels with a slingshot is wayy too difficult. It’s much easier to use an air rifle
But The WB likes the challenge I think. 😉
If I want to kill my limit I'll just bust out the 1022 but if I want a real challenge Ill do something a bid different
Keep practicing.
Good to bring slingshot on walks in the woods you might just come home with dinner. If your lucky
😂😂😂 you holding the handle the wrong way sir. If try the other way you most likely to hit your target..
I am?
Man fowler watching that and laughing his butt off while wishing he was there
HAHA Right! Wish fowler was here.
He would have been standing on a pile of them even to the height of the treestand. His slingshot skill is redonkulus.
💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪#1
Thank you for teaching these hunting skills. Very needed. God Bless you.
Black Oil Sunflower Seed, bro
You should patent the squirrel stand. What goes for the chum faster? Seems like, by your video, that the black squirrel is on it first, followed by some birds, and then the grey squirrel. Which are better to eat?
Wow! I found myself yelling and cheering you on! Lol congrats!!
100% looks easier than in real life!
What a sweet freaking video!!
Last year I picked up an entire atv trailer of black walnuts here in Tennessee, I parked it beside my woodshed and a couple days later they were all gone lol. Little guys love walnuts
I've done the same! It's amazing how fast they work.
I enjoy all these videos... I want to start my own channel here in Texas but I want to have a different twist then the normal norm... Any pointers
This is such a fricking good video
Hahahahaha That was Great.....Squirrel Hunting is what got me into slingshots 10 Years ago....After my first kill hahaha I was addicted.......Thanks for the Adventure and the Yummy looking Squirrel.....And Awesomenesss on those Darts Boom
It's gonna suck when your blinded by one of those bands. 😔
Wellll
Yes! I love a good outdoors challenge! I completely understand that feeling of putting great effort into achieving something like this! It builds you up when you accomplish it!
My Dad hunted squirrels with a homemade sling shot. He was 8 yo, it was the great depression and the 6 squirrels he got that day was the family's dinner. They had 285 acres. He was awarded his own rifle. Dad was a man's man.
Cool story, thanks for sharing!
@@rr8960 Certainly. Dad said he stopped at 6 squirrels because he figured that was enough.
Dad taught a retired old guy how to hunt sea gulls when Dad was about 60 yo. The guy was living in an old abandoned shed by my Dad's work and asked Dad for money. Dad said, "What do you need the money for?" The man said he was hungry. Dad said, "You don't have to go hungry with all these sea gulls around here." The man said, "I don't?" Dad said, "Why sure! Don't you know how to hunt!"
Dad taught him how to make a slingshot, how to shoot, how to skin it out, how to make a fire.
don't kill the square
What about using a venom blow gun. with a broad head dart ?? There pretty dang accurate!!! Something a little different that the sling shot
Hunting squirrel you don’t need any poison
@@keepermovin5906 no one said anything about poison,! ?? Venom is a brand of blow gun,
Im impressed,I could only imagine how hard it would be for be to hit a squirrel with a slingshot..much more challenging than hitting them with a 22.s and pellet guns I’m used to..lol
What size ammo did you use?
Oh come on Chris! You DO care, cuz you LOVE us!! 😉
Keep your clothes on. 😂
And now I want to try your 🐿 because if Kevin says it is good. It MUST be!! Hee hee 😋
Woodsman lumnah acres needs you to attack the beavers. God bless love watching.👁👁ya .
M
Nice to 👁👁 the Modern self reliance giving you his opinion on the kill.👍keep safe😷🤲
lol, this is very interesting!! I can offer you a new game camera for free to help you record your squirrel's daily life, don't know if you need it.
🐿 🍗!!
That was definitely a flying squirrel at night there also nocturnal
More slingshotttttt videos
Nice
hunt!
Beardedwoodsman: i just got salmonella from the wild goose i touched.
.............
Now to eat a wild rodent.
I though your boyfriend was the king of slingshots? Well done. Very impressive.
