Post by: dave h on July 04, 2014, 03:28:00 PM: I have read some of Bob Fords Books, We been running and hunting hounds for decades, What is really weird I have never taken my bow. I have still hunted bunnies with a bow but have always used a 410 shot gun and for a few years now a 410 hand gun. This year I am taking my bow. Have some really good rabbit hunting vids on my youtube channel. Thanks

Well if we miss the hounds can keep running, Hope my many years of being a snap shooter help.

Thanks Man.When that can exploded I was kind of in shock.lol You can not see it on film but a haze of shaving cream went about 20 feet in the air. I have seen guys shoot them with guns so I thought what the heck.Those cans have pretty thick metal so it does show what a 43lb bow can do.

Post by: Bernie B. on July 06, 2014, 12:49:00 PM: That video got my dogs all excited! Hearing the barking, they ran to look out the picture window to see who is coming. There's no way I would have been quick enough for a shot at that wabbit.

Post by: on July 06, 2014, 06:46:00 PM: I hunted with a basset hound that pointed pheasants, retrieved out of water and would give me east rabbit shots all day. Then poop in the back seat of my car before I could start the car to head for home, every time. I had a cocker that new more about canoe tripping and rabbits than most people do. The shots were a bit tougher, but that crazy dog never failed to rip all of the feathers off my arrows that missed, before he returned them to me. Longbows, short dogs and bunnies, pure fun.

Post by: The Ole' Bowhunter on July 06, 2014, 07:40:00 PM: Yes Dave, I believe you could have made the shot especially with traditional bowhunting gear. Though my sons and I do not have rabbit dogs, we do shoot a few cottontails with our traditional gear here in Saratoga, New York each winter by each of us taking turns busting through heavy brush where the bunnies skulk.
