Are squirrels terribly diffficult targets?

distance? moving? think most folks could practice and get to point of hitting a soda can at 20 feet most of time at 30 feet suspect you would be lucky to hit it once out of 10, my criticism of this sling shot is the surgical tubing, 2-3 months needs replacing, there is replacement tubing, stronger pull(harder) that's black in color which appears to give longer life.

Would think squirrels are pretty hard to hit. They are small, quick and tend to move to cover when they see someone.

Not when they're eating off your bird feeder. We put just enough tension on that they feel it and run but we don't maim them. We shoot from our kitchen window. Now they run when they hear the window open

No, simply no. Not enough muzzle velocity, therefore not impact to kill small game. Especially if it is not accurate enough. Hitting a squirrel with a BB will just chase him away.

cannot say; it really did not work all that well for squirrels. I had to get a professional exterminator.

Hi Thomas, Yes, they'll definitely take care of squirrels. See the two pics that I had posted. Roasted sunflower seeds are excellent for bait. Place 5-6 in the far back of the trap, 1-2 on each plate (to lead the squirrel into the far back), and 5-6 outside the trap around the entrance.

No, not on squirrels. I bought this to use on gophers but discovered that instead of gophers, I had moles. It doesn't work on moles.

I'm not sure whether this product works for squirrels or deer. There are still too many of both in our yard.

the squirrels in my yard are very agile,they jump from the ground up to the feeder by passed the torpedo.I bought a squirrel proof feeder,works very well and no bird poop on torpedo.

We were fortunate not to be plagued with squirrels. Our lot had only trees we planted and none appealed to them so we only had an occasional passing visit. Positioning I think is not so important as having baffles to not allow climbing pole. If feeder is withi jumping distance of a tree or large shrub the feeder should be moved. Good luck.

I shudder at the thought, but I guess if your squirrels aren't too big. The ones we have here in Florida are not very large, I would assume they would. Try one.

I would think that this pellet would be ideal for squirrel hunting because of it's penetration and full expansion, being a hollow point. Happy hunting

Maybe at close range with the right pellets. I personally never point guns at any living creatures. I highly recommend getting a 50 pack of Shoot and See. Much more fun than a barrel of squirrels.

I agree with Long Island - they must be very small squirrels. I live on the Jersey Shore and the squirrels are too big to get in this feeder. I recommend putting some smaller wire mesh over the existing screening.

Yes, definitely powerful enough to kill a squirrel. At 5 pumps (half power) with pellet ammo it penetrates and sometimes passes through both sides of a water filled 20oz plastic coke bottle. The pellets are more accurate are a must it you're looking to hunt small game.

I know that they work on rodents like mice and rats but I'm not sure about squirrels. Good luck. Let us know if you buy it and they work.

If by groud squirrels you mean what I call chipmunks - absolutely. My back yard/wooded area wall full of their holes in the ground, In a couple of weeks from placing the mole chaser in the area, they had all moved on!!
