For over 20 years a group from our local archery club has a bunny hunt on Super Bowl Sunday. Any bowhunters in the area that are interested in attending are welcome!

We have a few new spots that look promising and a few regular spots that we will hunt. If the group is fairly large we will split up into a couple of groups.
Bring small game points and lots of arrows.

You can use the map link to get you to my house. We hope to head out hunting at 9:00 or so. I will have the coffee on early and some donuts and such.

I am going to have my wife make a big batch of chili with some Elk burger so we can have a lunch.
After the day of hunting we always get together later at my neighbor/friend Steve Gobeli's house with a dish to pass and we play some cards, watch a little football and shoot the "Bull".  
Steve is our area P&Y official scorer and has a very impressive artifacts collection. Along with some nice archery trophies on the walls.

Anyone that would like to stick around for the potluck and party is welcome. Bring some clothes and you can shower and clean up at my house.

I need to get a handle on how many are attending so "sign in"

I keep on missing these hunts.  Thanks for the invitation as I'd love to hook up with some fellow trad hunters and put some faces with the names.  Fortunatley I'll be at work.  Maybe next year.  Thanks again for the invitation.

I'm thinking about it.  Waiting for Favre to make up his mind first. I'll try to decide by next Monday if that's OK.
Title: Re: WI "Super Bowl Bunny Hunt" ......Roll Call !
Post by: Kevin Winkler on January 25, 2010, 10:14:00 AM
I'll bet Favre is licking his wounds this morning!

No problem Bruce and long as you can make a decision quicker than Favre.

You'll beat Favre to a decision by a good 7 months if you make up your mind by Monday! Wait for him and rabbit season will be long gone....  ;)  

Man, I wish I could make this one!!!!
Have a great time guys.

Normally probably not, but if Dale brings his beagle maybe they'll let him in  :biglaugh:

Looks like I'll be coming, when's the best time for coffee?
Title: Re: WI "Super Bowl Bunny Hunt" ......Roll Call !
Post by: Kevin Winkler on February 01, 2010, 03:29:00 PM
Coffee will be on at 7:00 AM you can show up anytime after that. Some of the local bunny hunters will be meeting at Steve's house at 8:00 AM

I figured that the rest of the out of town group can meet at my house and we will head out around 9:00 AM.
That should give everyone time to meet at my house. We can shoot the bull until everyone arrives and then meet up with the other group or head to another spot.
Title: Re: WI "Super Bowl Bunny Hunt" ......Roll Call !
Post by: don kauss on February 01, 2010, 04:29:00 PM
I'll be there with Dale and I'm pretty sure his beagle is coming too...

Count me in!

Ya'll gots any coons down yonder?
Title: Re: WI "Super Bowl Bunny Hunt" ......Roll Call !
Post by: Kevin Winkler on February 04, 2010, 09:13:00 AM
York,

We have the coon, but season closed the end of Jan. I believe.
Everyone is getting excited about the hunt! It will be nice to put faces with the names and to share some good times and fellowship.

Got a scouting report the other day from Steve. It's looking good. Lots of tracks and sign, plus he shot three during the scouting mission.
We have permission on four more neighboring properties to hunt, so we have plenty of places to go.

Dale Moore will be bringing a couple of dogs to aid in our pursuit. My wife is making a batch of Deer/Elk BBQ for a light lunch during the day.

These are the ones that have said they are coming so far...........Anyone else? your welcome to come!

1) Jason Wesbrock
2) Smoke1953
3) Don Kauss
4) Dale Moore
5) Old York

Sounds like a great scouting report! I think it's 90 min. for me so I'll try to be there by 8.

Now Joe, you drove to Kalamazoo took in the show and drove back in one day. You should easily be able to make it to Monroe by 8am, hunt until noon, make it back to Milwaukee and put in 8 hrs. of work.  No problem!
Title: Re: WI "Super Bowl Bunny Hunt" ......Roll Call !
Post by: Kevin Winkler on February 04, 2010, 07:59:00 PM
Joe, At least you have a job!

Wish you could make it.....maybe another time.
Will you be at the WTA banquet on the 27th?

Kevin, I was wanting to chase some bunny's around on my B-day.  But, I can not make the hunt.  To much going on between swim meets and wrestling matchs.  I hope everyone has a great time.
Title: Re: WI "Super Bowl Bunny Hunt" ......Roll Call !
Post by: Kevin Winkler on February 04, 2010, 08:13:00 PM
Paul, When is your B-Day? Maybe a few of us can get together yet before the end of the season.

Maybe we could try a carp shoot or some Turkey hunting this Spring? That would be something we could do as a group.

If you have room for one more and I can print my non-res small game off the internet I plan to be there....

Pronghorn,

I don't think you can print WI licenses online; however, Gander Mountain sells them over the counter.
Title: Re: WI "Super Bowl Bunny Hunt" ......Roll Call !
Post by: Kevin Winkler on February 06, 2010, 02:14:00 PM
We always have room for more bunny hunters. Your welcome to come if your can get your license.
Title: Re: WI "Super Bowl Bunny Hunt" ......Roll Call !
Post by: pronghorn23 on February 06, 2010, 02:16:00 PM
The DNR website says small game 5 day can be printed...was hoping to make sure before I try. (Hate to buy it then it have it mailed, too late). Plus want to make sure there's room or they know to expect me before I order it. Figure it shouldn't be a problem but since it's getting close I don't want to barge in.
