Squirrel hunting is among one of the most popular for small game hunters. Squirrels are abundant, make good table fare, and a great starter for first time hunters. There are many methods to squirrel hunting. Some hunters like to sit and wait for squirrels. Others like to stalk quietly through the woods after their prey. Still others enjoy calling squirrels.

Not only is calling squirrels an effective hunting method, but it also calms down squirrels after you have shot. Let out a few cutts with a squirrel call, and the other squirrels quickly come out of hiding. You can spend a few dollars and purchase a squirrel call. Or you go another route and use 50 cents — or even two pennies — and create your own call. As simple as it sounds, it works.
