- What a morning session this was!
With the weather having turned much colder, it almost made for the perfect morning to be out after the bushy tails.
I'd been feeding this location for a few months. Having shot 5 here a few weeks before, I'd noticed the nuts going now within just a couple of days. So I was confident there were a few still to be had. Plus I'd seen one or two there while feeding up on the odd occasion.

Robin, being from the USA, I didn’t realize airgunning was so sophisticated. Thanks to you, I’m planning on acquiring a quality kit. You’re an awesome shooter as well.
Thanks for the compliment, and thanks for watching too. All the best.
Bobby Brady I have a 22 LR, and a boatload of other weapons. I want a pellet rifle as well. Because I live in the USA is exactly why I want one....because I can.
"...another squirrel came down the tree to have a chew on my nutts."
BWWWAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Love squirrels myself
In gravy
I read somewhere that the spiced flour they use for KFC was orginally a recipe for Squirrels, and in the Southern States the Good 'ol boys always had some handy!
I love many animals in this way :D
That little bird at 17:38 is the most savage thing in this video.
“Oh, you’re dead? I guess you won’t be needing this...”
"Another squirrel has come down to the feeder to chew on my nuts." Well said, Robin. Great video.
Thanks for watching. Glad you liked it.
As soon as he said that I had to go to the comments to see if anyone would mention it 😂
@@nikolasgrn Same here... Lmbo!! Great shoot and video!!! Enjoyed this
😂
Lol literally just about to comment on that😂
You and some other up loaders who carry their culling professionally certainly do the countryside and other creatures a massive service.
Thanks Jeff. Not everyone gets it.
@@TeamFoxer I wish you could be allowed to sort out our local Bruntwood Park in Cheadle Hulme as the greys in here are a real pest. They are so emboldened that they screech at and attack small children with food in their hands if they are left unattended. My Jack Russel has shredded a good few in his time but he is getting a bit slow with age now. It used to be so peaceful and sedentary in the park before this pest started breeding out of control.
MrDegsy69 pass my details to the council. I can sort it.👍🦊
aesthetically a disservice,
Agree seen so meny none humain hunting on here
Your little foxer friend is a cutie. It's good to see Dad's spending quality time with their kids. Also, what was the liquid you mixed with your tea?
I live in New York state in the USA. My immediate neighborhood is overrun with Squirrels. They can be quite destructive. Last year, they ate my flowers, chewed my lead in wire for the cable TV, the windshield wipers on my truck, and also the propane gas line for my BBQ grill. So, I broke out my old pellet rifle, (.177) put a decent scope on it and went to war. In 3 months I killed 86 Squirrels. Average distance 35 feet. My best shot was about 75 feet as he sat on top of a telephone pole. Nice video. Subscribed. Thank you.
Welcome aboard. Hopefully I’ll have another squirrel video up later today.
I love that seventh squirrel: "Hey, what are all you guys doing here dead? Hmmm? Nothing? Okay, I'm gonna get a bite to eat." On his way down, his last thought was probably, "Oh! Now I get it!"
Good god, squirrels are dumb, huh?
“Hay! Look at all those bodies spread out on the ground...this place is crazy! Maybe I should be caref........is that food?”
Yes believe me they are I've killed one before
You remind me of SpongeBob and Patrick mocking Sandy
Just so many of them interacting with each other that they are literally numb to watching out for other dangers, one of the many weaknesses introduced by overpopulation.
"OOOh, I better be quiet. Those guys are sleeping"
Do you eat them????
I hold you responsible, after 30 years of using shotgun and rifle, I have bought a new air rifle, PCP and the wife said “HOW MUCH" so I mumbled the price again and now I’m decorating the spare room, but it’s worth it😂😂😂😂
I actually laughed out loud at this. Brilliant.
You got off pretty good, usually it's a trip to the jeweler for me!!
You need a new wife,,LOL :)
There's only one good way to handle it when the wife asks how something in your hobby costs, "LIE! Firmly and convincingly!" Not that I'd do that, but I've heard that's how it should be handled.
The simple response...."I make the money in this house, now wheres my pillow and blanket so I can sleep on the sofa"
The grey is one of the most destructive pest if you have a lawn, and a garden. It’s a major nuisance here In Maryland. Worst, when your neighbors are feeding them.
Hi, I enjoyed the shoot, thank you for taking the time to put this together. Greetings from Montreal, Canada
Hello there. Canada 🇨🇦 is on my bucket list.
Thank you for sharing. Nice shooting indeed!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Always a good day when all the shots hit home and none missed.
Darren Webb indeed. No excuse for missing really. Unless the animal moves the second you pull the trigger. However if your patient enough you’ll know when the time is right.
Great video.
Excellent photography - and shooting.
Thank you.
It's amazing how successful that species of squirrel has been. They are very very common in the United States in rural areas, suburban areas and metropolitan areas. They are a perfectly designed animal.
Same up here in Canada. Black squirrel is most common about 95% of the time, Then you get the odd grey squirrel. Never seen a red squirrel though. There's a city called Oshawa small city North East of Toronto which is a major metropolis. There's literally squirrels everywhere in Oshawa. I counted about 6-8 in the front lawn of 4 houses. Jokingly amongst friends we've renamed that city "Squirrel town".
10.38 This one "Julie" obliges You know your quarry so well Robin! you can identify individuals by name 😂
I’m from across the pond, and I’ve got a squirrel problem. After watching your video, good riddance to the varmints!! Love your gun and technique 👍😀many thanks
Another great video, Robin. Good patience. Sometimes it is as important to know when not to take a shot as to take one.
"I hate shopping!" 😂
kelticpaddler I’ve been there agin this last week. I’m currently editing the footage together. It should be fingers crossed 🤞 a good watch as I’ve got scope cam footage this time round, plus a camera next to the feeder.
I CAN NOT BELIEVE YOU ARE KILLING SQUIRREL! and not showing us how to deep fry the leg quarters.
I like it best sloooooooow cooked in butter with a tiny bit of cinnomin. Let me stress the amount of cinnomin. It's like one shake from the can would be to too much. A tiny bit. Less is more. Too much, and it's ruined. Salt and pepper . Let it cook until the meat is falling off the bone. -That's best.
Make sure you cut the glands out of the front armpit area. Otherwise the meat won’t taste very good.
A guy that worked for me his dad would make squirrel gravy on biskits ,it was really good.
Great video, 9’s a great number to get in such a short time.
Pity about the squirrel chewing your nuts, that’s another operation you’ll need to get sorted😄
I hope you’re current operation was successful and we’ll see you back here soon.
Best wishes and have a speedy recovery.
Ash🏴
ashy1423 thank you kind sir. I’m on the mend I think. Won’t be picking up a gun anytime soon. Frustrating as hell. But hey as soon as I can be I’ll be back out on the Foxes and other critters. Thanks for your comment. All the very best for 2019 to you and the family.
I would have stayed for tenth and got a bollocking 😂
Good shooting and filming
Richard Knopik you ain’t met Mrs Foxer!
@@TeamFoxer Sorry Robin, BUT around here the rooster rules the roost ;-)
MrGordy61 well after 11 years I’ve learned that it pays to keep this particular vixen happy.
Mine an all, but mine dont let me go shoppin any more as I made such a pigs ear of it (on purpose), she go's on her own. @@TeamFoxer
Whats tenth (second?) and what's a bollocking
Just started following your channel young man and I must say I am very impressed I love listening to your commentary and your advice. I will definitely be watching every video you upload. Thank you 👍👍👍😊😊😊♥️
Well thank you Kelvin. That is very much appreciated. Glad you like it.
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment.
Brilliant mate! You done well...and should be very happy with Nine...Over on this side of the pond, in my back Forty, I'm having a great day if I get Three...It seems that after I get the first one, the others smell danger and stay away... Bollocks!
Cheers, Mark
PS: The pallet hide looks very comfy!
I live in the US and have shot lots of gray squirrels without ever using a "hide" (or "blind" as we call them here.) Every squirrel I ever shot had seen me, but they just didn't care. I used a .22 rimfire rifle with open sights and the average distance was about 20 yards. I always ate them too! They're good to eat and people have been doing that in the US for centuries!
best squirrel is the ones deep fried in gravy with biscuits
Grew up on a family recipe for squirrel and dumplings. Miss those feeds just watch out for the shot.
Yuck! Tree rats...
I use a pheasant feeder for squirrels. Holds 25kg of grain. Don't have to regularly check the levels. Plenty of grain for wild birds/small rodents to eat during winter. Plus ensures safe ground back stop.
The Grey Squirrel (Sciurus carolinensis) gestation is 44 days/6.28 weeks. Can start reproducing at age 10-12 months. I have put forth a valiant effort to eradicate the varmint from the farm and have come to the conclusion that it is best to buy your top shelf ammunition in sufficient lots because you're going to be here a while.
Thank you Robin for the great footage and effort. Always looking forward to your next production.
P. S. Love the 90's porn music
Very cool man! Thanks! Excellent shooting n filming!
Leafyr Oakfyst thank you. I think the last squirrel video was better myself as I had scope
Cam footage. Let me know what you thank.
Robin, Jim here from the U.S. Your videos are great. Just broke out my Falcon raptor after 12 years of storage. 2 crows, 3 greys & counting. .22 cal & 50 m.m. Simmons
Falcons are fantastic rifles. Go get em!!
Man, that is some really good shooting. Thanks for letting us share it with you.
Thank you very much. Glad you enjoyed the video.
@@TeamFoxer I am an older man, age 69. I grew up in a time when you had to pay extra to make a long distance call to a neighboring town. And I think it is the coolest thing in the world to be able to communicate with someone from England as easy as this. Thank you for answering me. For an old man, this is great.
Skydiver Diver I love hearing from people around the world that like the videos. It’s one of the main reasons I keep making em. Happy new year to ya.
I'm sure you already know this trick for baiting, run a 3" drywall screw up into the platform where the squirrels are sitting on while eating and put an ear of corn on the screw. They will sit and eat the corn off the cob and you don't have to worry about shooting the glass jar.
Mr Kanook I’d not seen that no. It is something to consider for the future thanks.
Can confirm this is an excellent strategy. The fuzzy little nuisances seem to love corn and it attracts them in droves.
I deer hunt on a farm, and have seen grey squirrels lug an entire ear of corn from the field to their nest some 20 feet up a tree. The smaller squirrels will pack their mouths full of kernels, climb to their nests to unload, then back down to fill their mouths with corn again. Squirrel season ends when deer season starts, so I don't shoot them. I really want to though.
@@mechredd if you ever give it a go make sure you shoot them squirrels with your deer rifle
@@aleckrug1554 I've thought about it. I don't know if the bullet will pass right through leaving a small hole, or make the squirrel explode.
Woods and gardens are infested with these pests to the detriment of other wildlife, so good job with getting their numbers reduced. Cracking shooting, keep it coming Robin
I really enjoyed this video. I am an American hunter. I like your method of getting those squirrels. I may try the air rifle approach myself. These animals are good to eat. I have liked your video and subscribed. Thank you sir.
Thanks for the Sub. All the very best from this side of the pond.
Robin, what do you do with the squirrel carcasses? If you skin them out, then you can salt and dry out the pelts. If you draw the carcasses after skinning, you can cut off and dice up the meat, seal it in a frying pan with a little oil, and then make up squirrel stew in a pan with some fried onion/vegetables, and a little stock. It takes a little time to cook through, but tastes delicious! As one guy once told me.....why should it not taste delicious.....squirrels maybe pests, but they live on the best of everything good in the forest. You certainly shoot enough squirrels to get yourself a decent pan of stew from them. It is the same with rabbit too. Wonderful meat for eating straight, or in a rabbit pie. Pigeons can be roasted, or the breast meat cut out and made into a stew for eating or a pigeon pie. Pigeon breast meat tastes nice done in wine with some fried onion chucked in and seasoning. I was brought up eating all this stuff. Sheeps head, chap (pigs head), brawn (made from chap), chitlins, soused herring, pigs trotters etc. Way back, people did not have much money and lived off the land like this. That's why there were so many poachers! The common people in those times were starving. The people I was brought up with remembered the old ways and ate a lot of this stuff. But I remember it. Not had a nice pan of squirrel stew for years. Really lovely stuff, full of taste, and great on a cold Winters day. Get a small billy can of that and a spoon and you think it's Heaven.
Remember saying years ago as a young lad, 'Ah, lovely little bunny rabbit.' I remember my father immediately replying, 'It would look a lot nicer under a crust!' Later he told me that as a lad he had reared rabbits for the slaughter. Then it was on to skinning and gutting rabbits for me. What to look for? The liver, kidneys, and heart of a rabbit can be boiled and eaten BUT on a rabbit liver there is a small sack of bile. When you get a rabbit liver, always try never to burst the bile sack, and remove it and dispose of it complete. Otherwise the bile will poison the meat, and it will taste awful. Also look at the liver very closely. It should be dark red and healthy. If there are faint yellow circles or yellow spots on it throw the entire rabbit away. It is infected with mixy (myxomatosis) and can make you ill. Little tips for rabbit gutters.
I've NEVER had a squirrel chew on my Nuts...congrats Robin. 😉
Liked and already Subscribed. 👍
Cheers 🙏
Great video, Robin. You gave me an idea to set up a feeder on my patio and shoot the squirrels discreetly with my M-rod from one of my windows overlooking it.
I agree with Richard. I would definitely have stayed until i got 10. What's a bloody row? A dozen excuses would spring to my mind at least. Lol
Great stuff! As Robert Klein noted - these things are nothing more than "rats with good PR" - vermin!
Just text the good lady that your waiting for double digit body count. And get the pan ready for some squirrel stew.
I love our cousins across the pond. Only the British take a tea break on a hunt. Good stuff mate!
I even take a T break when foxing lol.
@@TeamFoxer lol love it. I have a friend that is originally from Scotland and when we first met we would go out to eat he would literally get disgusted when I drank our Southern Iced Sweet Tea! He said tea should only be hot. Subbed your channel going through your videos now they are enjoyable. In the south we use 20 gauge shot gun on squirrel and 22 LR or shorts if in the backyard. Keep up the quality work.
They are huge, some meat on those guys, well done Robin, not enough people doing this!
Bobby Thompson yeah they were surprisingly heavy some of the things. I took a photo of the biggest one it’s on the credits at the very end of the video. It was a huge female. As big as my flask.
That cool, calm British tone is really relaxing.....
Lol if you say so. 🦊👍
Great job mate, keep on fighting the good fight.
I almost spit out my coffee when he said another squirrel came down to chew my nuts ROFL
Thought I’d would get a couple of giggles that.
That shopping look is the best😂😂😂😂😂😂 keep it up man👍👍
You fancy yourself quite the Army sniper!!
I fancy myself?? Not quite sure what you mean here buddy. Am I confident and good with a rifle? Yeah. Yeah I am. Why shouldn’t I be.
@@TeamFoxer Relax bro, I didn't say anything about your confidence. Clearly it's high. I don't want you sniping me in the forehead with a pellet.
glad your giving are reds a helping hand keep up the good work
I watch these videos and when they start freaking out over their dead buddies I have to laugh. Steve Martin in the gas station scene with the oil cans in “The Jerk” always comes to mind. “THERES SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE CANS.........HE HATES THE CANS.......” 🤪😁🤓
Squirrels = rats with fluffy tails.........
Tree Rats
i cant like this enough
@Eye Ore worst
I have eaten both...squirrels are definitely more tasty than a rat.
squirrel hunters = rats without fur equipped with small penis
After watching several times it’s still a GREAT shoot!
Great with biscuits and gravy
Excellent shooting! Thank you for sharing.
Great shooting and fantastic footage Robin
remskicodhead1 thank you, and thanks for watching.
Awesome video. Very entertaining and instructional at the same time. Looking forward to building a feeder with the container (plastic), positioned off to the side. Thanks for the nice job.
My pleasure thanks for watching.
Outstanding marksmanship sir. I REALLY enjoy your videos and I'm wondering if you have considered getting a camera that records in much higher speeds so that you could actually see the flight of the pellet and the perfect moment of impact?
Awesome video Robin, quality setup and it paid-off. R
Thanks mate. I shot the same place a couple of days ago and am currently editing the footage. Stick around as this ones got some great camera footage as well as a scope view this time.
@@TeamFoxer That's what I'm looking forward-to. 👍🏻
G'Mate from Australia. Jealous as hell watching you shoot. Good score nine. I havent been hunting (rabbits) since I was 16 (67 now). Looks like my type of sport (energy wise)... sit there and let the victiums come to with in your range.
Works for deer also on this side of pond and legal
All the excitement of a big game hunt, I use a 22 but have been looking at the air rifles, thanks.
Keep the squirrel hunting coming love these videos
Uddershock thanks. Those videos will slow down over the summer. But will be back for sure. I love a bit of squirrel bashing.
Squirrels are angels of the forest I love them dearly and hate anybody who hurts them
Cookoo cookoo
Good show, cheers from Alabama USA
Geez, there is the makings of some tasty fried squirrel! Good shooting.
I’m actually going back there in the morning to shoot it again. Been feeding it back up over the last few weeks and the nuts are going down fast. Went to set some stuff up there earlier today and there was two on it. So fingers crossed 🤞 we can have a few on the deck and on film.
Dude this video was highly entertaining!
I guess I really don't like squirrels cuz this was hilarious!
Pop one for "Girly" next time!
Awesome video Robin, great shooting and thats a great hide you knocked up, Cheers
Casper Boo thanks for stopping by again Casper.
squirrel and dumplings for dinner.
As you mentioned pallets, I was thinking what the hell did we do before pallets!! My mate built a fantastic hide out of them, insulated and cosy!
"...the good lady fox wishes to go shopping...I bloody hate shopping!"LOL 😂
😮...Soooooo much good eatin' there...👍🏼💯✔
Great shooting i like the way you kill them instantly.
Thanks for watching. I don’t shoot anything live to do any other. I mean, it happen every now and then where you unintentionally wound something. But as quick and as safe as it is possible to do so. I’ll follow it up with a second shot.
An excellent video Robin, nine squirrels, well done.
Geoff.
Bloody hate shopping😀
Ray Geary unless it’s for gun stuff or cars.
That was best look😂😂😂👍👍
@@TeamFoxer yep always in leicester air gun shop need bigger store🤔
Ray Geary ha ha nice one. Not a million miles away then.
You are a great shot!
Great video as always Rob, are you going to film the shoot in Yorkshire?
Springer spaniel no mate. This was filmed a few weeks ago in December. The game shooting is for me to enjoy. Not ever saying I won’t film one of them but the time being that’s just for me to enjoy. I shot my first Woodcock last weekend and got a left and right. Would have been good to get that on film!
I'm sure you've addressed it by now... but yes my thought was, put the feeder platform lower and move it off at an angle so the jar isn't always in your background. Another option would be just to put a small piece of wood in front of the jar to protect it from a through-shot.
I love his commentary 💯
Thanks for watching.
Made me laugh, ya set a timer so you didn't get a bollockin from the missus, good shout!
Keeping her in side is a must. I learned the hard way.
Hello Robin, superb footage!! In the area you are shooting we see that there only grey squirrels come to the feeder. All the red squirrels are already gone? Greatings from Holland!
dirk doenvan v. I’ve seen a red one since I went to Scotland. Sadly aren’t any around here.
@@TeamFoxer The highest population in the UK for red squirrels is the Isle of Wight. They have no grey squirrels there. If one is sighted they are quickly dispatched. I was lucky to live there for 20 years and hand fed red squirrels at the back door of our house.
Josh Frank we don’t have any red anywhere near here, and neither would I. Allow feeding in my back yard that is. This feeder is on the farm a good mile up the road.
Josh Frank reds are protected by law here in the UK. ThTs probably why. Not sure about any other European country.
Josh, as Robin states Red Squirrels are protected in the UK. They are true species which are indigenous to the UK. Grey squirrels are not actually squirrels, they are American tree rats that are classed as vermin. Reds do not cause any destruction to trees or wildlife and are healthy creatures that carry no disease. The same cannot be said for greys, they cost the UK economy millions every year in damage to trees by ring barking.
Air rifle's recently became legal in my area for small game. I have a scoped break barrel and have been practicing and hope to be ready for next season. Always love a new challenge and an addition to the season.
Another fine video Robin. I think you did the right thing going back for the misses. You might have had more than your nuts chewed ! more like crushed . PS buy her some flowers too. Your more likely to get away with spending money on guns ETC. LOL
andy b I really can’t complain. She hardly ever stops me going out. Plus at the mo while I’m laid up she’s been a cracking nurse.
@@TeamFoxer Sorry I totally forgot to ask you how it went .been there too! You should have had her in the video & put some fun into it too .Nurse bringing you your tea & medication out in the field LOL
andy b
😂😂😂
Great video, thanks! You could almost poke the squirrels off the feeder with the length of that rifle though 😂
It is lengthy but made worse b the moderator. Mind you. It does the job lol.
Just started watch your vids.
Squirrel feeder make a big wooden hopper I’ve got a few about which hold 20kg of wheat. £7 a bag much cheaper than nuts and they love it and it will last a month. So no popping out to permissions if you have no time. Daz
Airgunhunter 1966 good idea. I’ve seen some much bigger ones. I don’t want to make it massive though.
Robin Foxer or longer and tall and I paint mine with brown fence paint. A bit of protection and they blend in well with the tree. I’ve got a small feeder that holds 10kg of wheat in my step dads garden. It blends in very well. Have a google and play building then. Daz
Well done chief team foxer another cracking video and awsome shooting as always
Pulsar Pest Control Services Ltd thank you sir.
Let the squirrels hit the floor, let the squirrels hit the floor, let the squirrels hit the flooooooooor. I've downed 36 of these grey vermin pests over the last three weeks on a new perm.
Tidy shooting there fella. Keep up the good work 👍👍👍👍 Next time forgo the shopping & get that tenth 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
You stacked them up like cord wood!!!! Lol
pokeypeter I did my best. Not missing one put me in a good mood.
they not real smart animals, youd think they seeing their brothers dead on the ground, theyll think its not safe to be there lol
Well done, sir. I'd love to be out after some squirrels but this weekend begins with 48 hours of unrelenting rain so I'm enjoying watching your success instead.
Thank you. I hope to be out on this feeder again within the next two weeks.
NICE SHOOTING
Donald Scott thanks for watching.
At 12:55 of this video I learned just how childish my humor can still be. Couldn't help but have a laugh.
Great video Robin. You need a re-think on your glass jar. Happy new year to you and Mrs foxer.
mick ibbett thank you mate. Happy new year to you and your family too.
What ya gonna do with all squirrels? Make a nice minced pie??
Damn nice set up! Awesome watching you hunt squirrels.
Good shooting Robin. Attach a piece of 90deg bent gal steel in front of the bottle. Any pellet hitting it from front on, will be deflected back into the board and ricochets kept to a minimum.
Wow dem Squirrels can pop better than Geoff Daniels.
I love what you are doing...love watching...keep doing what you are doing. CHEERS
Thanks mate. I will certainly try. In fact I went out yesterday with a mate to top up the feeder. Give it another month and it’ll be ready to shoot again. So stay tunned for that. In the mean time today I posted a new video with a chance to win an Olight torch.
Nice bit of blasting going on there Robin, when you stopped for tea my eyes were on the tin of pellets sitting precariously on a half inch bit of wood ! you want a bit of pallet to span the gap for a nice little shelf, built a couple like yours and got a paraffin heater in one of them, very toasty, a home from home lol. keep at em bud. atb Phil.
As you can tell by my name, I enjoyed this video. In the American South, we (some of us anyway) like squirrel stew.
Really enjoy watching your squirrel hunting video.
First time watching, awesome video. Will be subscribing
Excellent video and fine shooting. Well done!
