Title: Raccoon n rabbit with Longbow//VIDEO on page 2
Post by: tarponnut on April 23, 2012, 12:14:00 PM
I was able to take another corn-robbing, feeder- messing-with raccoon with my Kohannah Longbow.
I got it on video but it's pretty graphic so I won't be posting it(the Snuffer did a number on him).This is the first rabbit I've taken from a tree stand, I spent months patterning him(lol).
I love small game hunting with trad gear.   (http://i301.photobucket.com/albums/nn66/tarponnut/Jimwithraccoon.jpg)  (http://i301.photobucket.com/albums/nn66/tarponnut/image.jpg)

Good job.  You have that right they tear up the feeders especially if you have any wires showing.

The raccoon actually came at me after I missed! The next arrow hit him in the vitals and the next pole-axed him with a snuffer between the should blades.They are tough critters for sure!
Those things have been hand spinning/feeding the hogs at night for months. Drewsbow and I installed a few cages and it's helped some but not as effective long term as an arrow.

Just watched video, very cool.

(I'm glad you didn't eat the coon, something wasn't right with him)

That video of the raccoon looked very much like the one I shot in my yard. The raccoon in my yard was also very aggressive and I had to put 3 arrows in him. He stood his ground to the end....
