Got this nice young grey squirrel while out for a walk at my old stomping grounds. Frame for this hunt was the @MikmaqWarrior Small Mouth Bass with Usopp White 5/8"x3/8"x8.5" (Dimensions courtesy of @Island made ). Hadn't been there in a while as the critters were becoming a little too aware of my presence and I wanted to let it settle down. There were a couple fox squirrels I was following that were playing chase in the tree tops, when I spotted this fella working his way slowly through the trees nipping at buds. He had no idea I was on the path below looking for an opening between the branches. As I side stepped to find my shot, he obliged me by moving up the tree a hair and pausing to gauge a hop to the next tree. I knew I only had a few seconds, I drew back lined him up and sent a 5/8" marble flying at him at mach speed - connecting right at the base of the ear. He came down in a silent bundle before crashing to the forest floor, dead on impact. The shot was about 12 yards up on a 45°ish angle. Very happy with this, he's going to make a fine meal but for now he's going in the freezer until I get another 2 to properly fill the crock pot. 
Thanks for looking guys, happy hunting!
