Grey Squirrels have been wiping out a pecan plantation in North Carolina. Feeding them lead seems to fix the problem!

As an American may I suggest while you are here you enjoy our national pass time, shooting an AR15 into a tannerite stuffed giant gummy bear while eating a double bacon cheeseburger with a cold PBR all while listening to motley crue!

I really enjoyed that episode, Matt ;-) Top tip for a squirrel up a tree that is running to the opposite side all the time - get your mate with the camera to walk around the tree making noise while you stand still and quiet. They'll often shuffle around to your side away from the noise and I don't need to tell you the rest ;-)

I am pleased that one of the landowners mentioned the fact that squirrels had ruined the wiring in one the barns. Same thing happened to a neighbor. Not only did the squirrel eat through some wiring in the attic but in doing so, his house was destroyed in the subsequent fire caused by our friend....Mr. Squirrel. Nice video Matt!

I lived in North Carolina and many a deer, rabbit and squirrel found its was to my freezer there. Wonderful to see you help a farmer with a pest problem. It's also wonderful to be able eat your quarry from a pest hunt. "Welcome to North Carolina." Yup... Thick brush and ticks. Nice video.

@waitwhat4566 6 жыл бұрын

I am not allergic to poison oak, but, I am allergic to ticks and the diseases they carry. Frankly I would have left the squirrel in the heavy bush just stay there, and let nature clean it up. Hunting in my native state of Oregon is a battle between man and bugs. All types. Everything from mosquitoes to biting flies and no-see-ems, can make an outing in the woods truly miserable. Flip flops NEVER. Boots with pants legs tucked in the top maybe. Long sleeved shirts buttoned up all the way and a little bug repellant as after shave. Glad to see that you were not bothered by natures bounty in the woods. Great video Matt, as always.

As always great video Matt! I've been subscribed, and watching your hunts, and reviews for some time now and I am so happy you have come to the U.S.! I have a question, watching you retrieve the squirrel from the thick bush I was instinctively looking for Poison Ivy, and I am curious as to if you have it in South Africa as well? Your passion for ballistic performance is contagious, and you have a real talent for shooting. I deeply respect you for your ethical considerations before each trigger pull, and that is what earned my sub. Thanks for the great vids, and keep up the great work! Best of luck at the Rocky Mountain Airgun Challenge, and have a great time in the States my friend!

Tell the farmer to watch uk guy on youtube called squirrel hunter channel,they put bait boxes out,setup a hide so the squirrels come to you. Setup the bait boxes filled with peanuts,sunflower seeds between the pecan trees and where the squirrels are nesting,setup hide about 35 yards from bait box,this will seriously reduce squirrel population. Good luck.

A little trick you can try if they're in their nest, or drey as they call them in the UK, is to put a pellet into the edge of the nest, the squirrel sometimes pops his head out to see what the disturbance is ;)

Should have smoked and canned some fro the trip to NC. I'm waiting for the slug liners. Nice squirrel shooting. Get with the locals for some venison too. Great Video. Hope all is well back home?

I live in a place where owning pellet guns are legal, around your property where air gunning is perfect for me, lots of land and freedom. owning a firearm is definitely not worth it too much hassle and no freedom. Only problem is is owning a quality air gun is out of my range of expense. I own a Marauder but pcp's and the sales of them are basically impossible to find even getting a place to fill your air tank in my area. I don't get to use it like I would like to I use it basically feed myself and save money in that way but it doesn't pay. Springers and pumps are everywhere I don't know anyone who has a PCP air gun like mine probably because of the scarcity and lack of availability. Love your videos and love hunting
