Title: Why I hate Scott Dillon
Post by: Charlie Lamb on February 14, 2016, 10:38:00 AM
Did you see his picture at the top this week. The guy has been snow shoe hare hunting and I really miss doing that.

So I don't really hate him. I just envy him a lot.

Congrats Scott    :thumbsup:

I'm with Charlie, sure do miss hunting them. They used to be THICK when I was a kid, but with all the 'Yotes, Owls & Hawks they have all but disappeared, now when you see a track you take a pic.

Thanks, everyone for the compliments, Charlie, you had me for a minute there,,going,,'what the hell did I do"?..haha

We have plenty of snowshoes up here; used my Fireball longbow on that one. I essentially track them on my own snowshoes, and hopefully spy them before they see me. I could only imagine if I had a Beagle. I have gotten 4 so far this season..still have a few weeks to go, and we just got a fresh 37" here, so look out!!

Scott... I don't mean to steal the spotlight, but here's a snowshoe hare picture of mine. Note that the ears of my bunny are slightly larger than yours. It has not been officially scored so there's no way to tell for sure.

So, it's the size of the EARS for the score. This site is so educational...

Used to hunt them in deep snow in Alaska, great way to lose arrows!!  But a lot of fun and good eating.

That Scott must be really good, he hunts in the snow with white fletching    :archer2:  I would be out of arrows in about four shots into the snow !

I hesitate to post the picture kenny. It's a totally different species than Scott's. No comparison.

Oh what the hell. Here's a pic of my "chemically enhanced" Jack.

Each October Scotty changes the voicemail on his phone, "I'm in the woods, call you when I come out"!  I left a message back in early October and he still hasn't returned my call!!!  

By the look of that picture and the old gray faced woodsman hiding behind that little rabbit he's still lost somewhere in the Adirondacks.  

To you brother......    :clapper:

I only got out to hunt snowshoes once this winter and didn't have any luck! I'm envious Scott! Nice wabbit man! Awesome pic and surroundings too!

Great job Scott...!

 I do miss chasing the Snowshoes, don't have any here, but we do have swamp rabbits, almost as big as that jack in Charlie's picture, (almost)..

Geeez that bigger than some of the whitetails I see guys posing with on here!
In all fairness different species or not that's a much bigger target than Scotts   :biglaugh:
