We got out there today and had some fun. Shawn, Damon, myself and the nototrious Mrs. Fudd saw quite a few rabbits, Damon walking away the winner. It took three arrows, but we finally put em down for good.

 

Now notice the shot placement on those two arrows. The first of Damon's shot took him between the eyes. Three good shots, two judos and a steel blunt....who says rabbits are easy to kill?


Then we found some deer sign.

 

Then we crossed the road to hunt behind my house. We saw more bunnies, but couldnt hunt the good stuff too long as the landowner was out with his friends bird hunting, so we circled back and called it a day. All in all, a great warm up hunt. OOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH YYYYYEEEEEEAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

Now if Damon will just stop hogging the bunnies...
Hey! that yellow arrow looks an awful lot like one of the one I donated behind the greenhouse last year!    :banghead:    :banghead:    ;)

"Guys anyone who has a PM regarding Killdeer please send it to me."

NOW  what did I do, and how many of you rats are talking about me behind my back? About what?

Cough it up before I come up there and start whuppin y'all. I'm in a wallerin' mood.   :saywhat:
Long, long afterward, in an oak I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

Ya do not need a bow tag to hunt small game in NYS, ya only need a small game license. Kids under 16 do not need to be members of TG, but they should join to see what they are missing. Killy, we are not talking!! It is hard to make threats that are backd up on the computer!! You just get ready to push those bunnies!! Snow is coming and Chuck keep it up!! OOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHH YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! Shawn

It was nice to get out there today. We will have to do another hunt during the week....might even have to let the "bunny terminator" know...he might let us shoot this time.
Mike, need us to bring anything???

Bring anything you like in the way of food or drink or just yourself is O.K. too. Please don't forget your hunting license. I should be up there in the early AM Saturday. So... I would like to try for a Saturday get together/tree rat/coyote adventure.

Even though Sonny was whipped Joe had all he could do to hold him back when we arrived in Brent's yard. It seems there had been a bunny there just a short time before we showed up.
