    Many different areas. Mostly around our property. When out hunting I might bring a slingshot with if it is not a very productive day. <br><br>Not many friends of mine own a slingshot. If they do it's just a simple crosman wrist rocket.

    my dad owns a larger piece of land that we have set up a shooting range up to 1000m so we can shoot anything we want out there. This land is where i do most my hunting for squirrel

    I shoot in my back garden, but its kinda small, so, whenever i had a chance i go outdoor in some wood and set target there to feel comfortable and be shure ammo wont go astray.

    I shoot indoors and outdoors, on my property only for now, although I do plan on carrying on the way to work and back as I have seen the occasional rabbit... I cant wait to try me some wild rabbit meat <img src="http://illiweb.com/fa/i/smiles/icon_biggrin.png" alt="Very Happy" longdesc="1">

    <span class="postbody"><br><br>i'll never forget my first rabbit, my grandfather taught me to shoot and hunt, he let me clean my first one on my own- I have never ever made such a mess of thing and went home stinking and covered in blood and shite lol- he wanted to let me make such botched job that I wouldnt never make the mistakes again, he showed me how to get it gone cleanly and I've been doing it that way ever since- lesson learnt well there!</span>

    I shoot around the house live on some of my aunts land. I also hunt squirrel here, they are rather tasty <img src="http://illiweb.com/fa/i/smiles/icon_wink.gif" alt="Wink" longdesc="15"> Not many rabbits around cause the dogs, still want to take one and try out rabbit. I mostly use my 1000+fps .177 pellet gun for hunting. But I soon will have my old wristrocket up and ready to use. Also live near the river so I could basically go fishing at anytime also.

    Fry them, my grandfather does most of the wild game cooking. I did bake some and they were very good. Also you can make dumplings out of them, but have not had that yet.<br><br>EDIT:<br><br>Also younger squirrels are far more tender then a older one.
