Our MI rabbit season runs to March 31. Shot these two rabbits in a half hour after work last night. They seemed more stupid than wild. I think I could have shot more, but I lost my left contact lens. LOL
-
Mmmmmm.....Hossenfeffer! Nice shooting!
Jeff

Congratulations. :bigsmyl:
Good shooting and many happy returns of the 'wild', looks mild, day. :archer:
-
Woodduck, not to mention the stripe in the longbow riser and the lucky rabbit foot. Good color coordination is a must for a successful hunt.
-
Nice going! Our season is closed now, a lot of them show back up in the warmer weather.
-
Looks like well placed shots,, congrats and thanks for posting!!!!
-
what kind of points did you use?
-
Hey Ian, I carry judos and hex blunts for rabbits. Shot these two with judos. It is a 79# Widow longbow with Beman Mfx shafts. The results were similar to a .22 long rifle with hollow points
-
great job Denny, I put a stalk on a wiley ole woodchuck yesterday but he busted me before I got into bow range.
-
Good deal.
-
Congrats Denny! Lots of fun wrapped up in those little guys! CK
-
Looks like it was mild there yesterday too, was beautiful here.
Colder and clear today though.
BD :bigsmyl:
-
Congrats Denny. Hopefully I will get out at least one more time as well.
-
Hey Denny are those the tame rabbits that were living right behind your shop? :rolleyes:
This is the breeding season, did you get them both with one shot? :biglaugh:
-
Ron, I already shot the "tame" rabbits on the range. You never showed up to hunt so I decided to take them out. LOL, These were junkyard rabbits.
-
A fine cache of rabbits there, Denny...
-
DENNY what kinda quiver you got there?
-
:bigsmyl: :thumbsup:
-
Denny,
Always enjoy your posts!! I think you need a HEAVIER bow for those varmits, LOL!!
-
Good ol MI rabbits. They remind me of FL deer. :p
Nice job Denny.
-
I've seen a pic somewhere of W Tim holding a Florida deer that looks a little smaller than one of those....
ok, maybe not smaller than one - but it wasn't any bigger than the two of 'em put together... :bigsmyl:
-
Good Stuff Denny
-
DENNY what kinda quiver you got there?
That's not a quiver, that's a Rabbit Trap :goldtooth:
-
Looks to be one of them new Dogware Quivers from 3Rivers...
-
Yeah Ron----he HAD to have been using some kind of trap!! :biglaugh:
-
I've heard of junkyard dogs but never junkyard rabbits.
-
Tom, Heck, there is junkyard toms and bucks too.
Ron, Rabbit trap - LOL! Put a little corn in the bottom and they hop in for a snack. I sent your stuff to you, but now I don't know why. :)
Thanks everyone
-
Nice shooting! This warm weather seems to have em moving a lot. I've been seeing them on my way home from work in the mornings along the sides of the road and usually 3 or 4 are in my yard when I pull in.
I'm gonna get the beagle out for one last run this weekend and see if I can make a meal! :)
-
I sent your stuff to you, but now I don't know why. :)
If I didn't pick on you you'd think I didn't like you. :smileystooges: : .... :bigsmyl:
-
Couldn't help myself. Ran out after work and went hunting again. Should have got 4, but ended up with one unfortunate rabbit.
You should come down Ron - so I can give you a lesson in shooting rabbits. :) (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v328/Dsturgisjr/INTERNETRABBIT.jpg)
-
Denny;
If you shoot like that WITHOUT your contacts, hate to see what you do to them with them in.. :biglaugh: looks like a great BBQ weekend ahead;
-
I haven't heard of junkyard Toms or junkyard bucks either; only junkyard dogs.
You keep killing those bunnies and you'll have plenty to eat.
-
Way to go bud!!
-

Thanks Denny but I was killin rabbits with a bow when you were in knee britches ;)

Too bad Geiko didn't have those caveman ads back then. You could have named your price with that middle photo. :)

Those were the days when I was a Stunt man double for Dan Haggerty (Grizzley Adams) That bear never did get use to me. :readit: ... :rolleyes: .... :bigsmyl:

How is your memory Ron? I'd like to know the brands of the bows in those pics.
-
My memory's like a steel trap :confused: :p
From top to bottom. a 1961 Bear Kodiak Special, 66" 60#@28". Next is a 1980 Zebra Longbow, 70" 83#@28". Last is a 1958 Bear Kodiak Special,68" 45#@28"
-
Fine fine job there Denny, big bunnies! They're bout the same size as Newaygo County whitetails. -
BTW--Your wife pens quite an article! Really enjoyed that in TB magazine, great job!
Awesome pics Ron. I read the post where you might be putting a book together. That's going to really be something... looking so forward to that. The pics alone will be some grade A classic stuff!!--Don McKellar
-
How are you doing Don?
I shot another rabbit last night- should have had a couple more. I think I'll go out this afternoon with one contact lense. The last 2 hours of daylight seem to be the best time. Last call for rabbits in MI today.
-
Doing great Den,-thanks
Yup, bunny season just ended. Time to hunt a few Chipmunks. The little bast....RASCALS, I mean, have been tearing the heck out of my cabin for the last couple of years.-If I can figure a good way to cook the little delecacies, I'll never go hungry.
:p
-

Gordy, You can only draw that tag once in a lifetime. Guess I'm al done. :)
Ron, Your memory seems kinda good.
Weather turned off cool and rainy for the last day. Never got a shot.
Turkey doesn't open for a few weeks, but I saw a woodchuck yesterday......
