Anybody getting out for small game to keep busy?
I went rabbit hunting last week with a buddy, we killed 7 here on my place in a few hours, dogs ran well. Going again this Wednesday, a few of the old guys I build guns with might come down to go, one is using his BP shotgun. ;D
I want to get out for limb rats one afternoon yet with the flinter, too, just gotta make time to do it.

You'd get more if you used a dying rabbit call and decoy instead of that life size picture of Big Fox dancing/stripping in the club!  |

I'm looking forward to the 18th as well, but moreso to the 11th. I've had some of the best turkey hunts of my life on youth day taking kids, look forward to that more than my own plans each year now.

There you go Fox, I shortened that to what makes the most sense! Did well on the rabbits again yesterday, we got nine. From 9:30 to 4pm probably only had a half hour the dogs weren't on a bunny. Two of the old guys I build guns with came over to hunt, one had a single shot 12ga blackpowder T/C, other had a 12ga side by side old hammer, damascus barrel gun that he shot paper cartridges loaded with black powder. Both killed a rabbit, pretty cool. |
