Oh

Oh

his mission is about today was grow on stage

God

I'll put him in the rucksack go make camp

okay so a technique that i like to use when I hunt squirrels is I like to walk with a medium volume what I mean by that is if I walk silently they don't know I'm here so they can go about their business and they might be silent at the same time eating some nuts sort of the cases if I'm walking full volume and I'm crunching all the leaves and kicking sticks when I walk and all that then everything in the forest is going to run away from me and evade me but I'm not going to hear them do it because I'm making all this noise at my feet the huge sound disturbance it's so loud in my ears can't hear the outline forest outside of it so I'm not going to hear everything scurry away i'm going to miss all that so by walking just loud enough for everything to know I'm here everything to hear me but not too loud where I can't hear them scurry away it allows me to hear the squirrels making all the noise on the leaves get getting to a tree jumping on it running up a tree jumping across branches right so I make just enough noise for their evade me but not too much where I can't hear them okay so now what I'm doing that it allows me to hear them suddenly I hear squirrel scurrying away running up at rest stop maybe I can see a pinpoint it right and I do my best to never take my eye off it because they'll put a tree between you and them and they'll you know take off on branches behind and jump branch to branch tree to tree before you even over there they're already three trees away you know forget about it so I like to pinpoint them keep my eye on them the whole time because it's so quick they'll lose you in a heartbeat and then I drop into silent mode and slowly silently make my way over with my eye on in the whole time because they usually stop to listen to see what's going on because I'm listening to them scurry away and then I stopped so then they stop that's when I slowly make my way over and they're not evading me anymore because I'm being silent so they don't even know where I am they're looking for me where is he they might come around the tree look around right they might they might peek over the branch that they're hiding behind so in the meantime I'm I'm finding a way around that tree or whatever the case is trying to find a better angle I'm doing quiet so now they're thinking okay he's not making any noise anymore this is a good thing where is he and they might even expose themselves even more and look around look for me and Here I am you know in a different place so instead of being here I'm now over here and I have a great angle on them so they don't realize that I've taken an advantage of that few moments to change my location to look better to a better angle so that's just technique that that I like to use so again I don't walk silently because they don't know I'm here I don't walk so loud that I can't hear the forest I walked right in the middle so I can hear everything scurry away from me and as a scurries it reveals itself to me that pinpoint it then i find the best angle on it so i can take a nice clean shot and i do that silently so there's two modes medium and silent and by doing by doing that I've been able to you know pinpoint squirrel is pretty quick because they run away from you hear it's really loud but if you keep making noise medium heading towards them they're going to keep evading you and you're gonna chase them all around the forest so you want to drop down to silent so they stop evading that's key and then you can slowly find a good angle on them and once I'm ready to take my shot I'm not moving I'm completely silent and and that way it sits nice and clean and you know they're not moving when I take the shot what lets me mentioning this album thanks for joining me today for the squirrel hunt i just got finished cooking it and it was absolutely fantastic and it really was an honor to link my path with its path appreciate you've used a constant support seen the next one take care
