I was expecting it to be a bad opener myself, but got lucky.

They are grouping up in those trees....strutncut killed 2 out of the same tree yesterday and a 3rd got away!!!!
I had barely walked into the woods at first light, when came upon a tree with probably 6 squirrels in it, really cutting and dropping the hicorynuts like crazy --- it was a classic great find for an old squirrel hunter. I killed 3 of them with 3 quick shots, and moved on. Found another tree with about 6 in it just a few minutes later, quickly took 3 more, then moved on again.
By the time I quit hunting right @ 9AM, had made about a 1-mile circling hunt, and only found 4 trees with any cuttings at all --- but killed 10 squirrels from those 4 trees. Two hickories, one poplar, and one white oak - GPS marked for bowseason, I might add
