    Default Got me a bunny

    On Wednesday, 12/26, my dad and I decided to take a ride up to the property in Sullivan County. The snow was deep so my dad decided to stay at the house and relax. So off I went with the old faithful 835 with a modified choke in search of some squirrels/bunnies. No luck with the squirrels ( Sorry Ruth!! ). I decided to try this one thick spot of rhododendron, berry bushes and rose bushes for rabbits. I was literally crawling on my hands and knees to get through this stuff when I finally got a BIG one to flush. It was too thick for a shot and it was too far away so I held off. I went to circle around to get a shot at it and as I was circling, another popped out so I shot that one. No pics of me and the rabbit because I was alone and when I got back to the house it was too dark for pics.

    But here's the one pic of it:




    It was a good sized cottontail, maybe 1 1/2 pounds.

    Well done! I'd love to put some rabbits in the pot this year. Guess I'd better get myself out there.

    Way to go Joe!

    Looks like some good eatin.
    Some people go to church and think about hunting. Others go hunting and think about God.

    nice looking rabbit there joe. Congrats to you
    The type of car you drive doesnt matter. The only thing that matters is the size of the arm hanging out the window!

    Congrats Joe! They are a challenge to hunt, especially by yourself and no dogs, which is what I do. I need to get out after some rabbits.
