Squirrel hunting-a dying sport?

Well, back in the day, you could hunt anywhere. I can remember people just parking on the side of roads and take off hunting. People don't have easy access to property anymore. I think that has a lot to do with it.

That is a very good point you make. When I started out many years ago, there were no hunting clubs. Open woods were abundant. I myself belonged to hunting clubs in more resent years. And they all have the same thing in common...they are "geared" for deer hunting-not squirrel or rabbit. Just look at the landscape itself. Mostly cutover, if not clear cut at some time. This is one area of hunting where conservation of the sport has failed.
