After the hunt we returned to Kevin's for elk barbecue and to continue shooting the bull.  Believe it or not we did a pretty good job shooting that.  Thanks Kevin for your hospitality!

sounds liek a great time that horribel four letter work WORK got in my way.  Im starting to think i need to take my buddies advice... " if work ever gets in the way of your time off by all means quit work!"

[pronghorn23]

Yes, great time had by all. Weather was great. Bunnies cooperated. Alot of arrows flew.

Again, thank you for the generosity Kevin.

Was great to meet some fellow tradgangers and put some faces with names.

[BowHuntingFool]

Sooooo..... did anyone hit one of them there bunnies???

[Orion]

If the one I shot at were six inches taller he would have been toast.  Well maybe.  Nope.  No bunnies downed.  Wasn't for lack of cooperation on their part.

Thanks for hosting, Kevin.  Very nice spread (food and land).

I need to make one of these. If not for helping wife at church I would have made this one.
Maybe next time.
Looks like a great time by all.

it was TERRIFIC! THANKS KEVIN!

[Kevin Winkler]

A non Tradganger friend of mine (Bob) that was hunting with us shot one bunny in what we call the junk ditch. The bunny managed to loose himself of the arrow and crawl in under the junk pile. We tried to recover the bunny, but without a backhoe it was an impossible task.

Thanks to all that attended. It was good seeing some familiar faces and meeting some new ones.
We had hoped for better luck as far as the number of bunny taken. We either need to bone up on our shooting skills or find some rabbits that can't run as fast!

From the looks of all the coyote tracks, I need to get out with the rifle a few times yet this winter and see if I can thin them out a little.

Hope to see some of you again in a few weeks at the WTA banquet.

[Old York]

A great time was had by all!
Thanks Kevin for hosting the hunt and
putting on all the food and drink.

Here's a few more pics from the hunt, sorry
I don't know all the names

Jerry Karbon - "Let's see...string to the front or back?"

And some more pics -
Kevin's friend Bob had a neat washer on the arrow shaft...he scored on a P&Y monster that
scrambled into the ravine cover.

They were not impressed with our archery skills...
 

Discussion of the aftermath, with the help of aiming fluid      

 

More deep rabbit discussion  

I had a great time & met some fine folks, had four shots that were so close as always, thanks again Kevin for putting on a great hunt!

[Old York]

Some more pics -
We had rabbits holding tight as a burr on a poodle, they'd scoot off to the back of us after we passed through in two waves


More co-miseratin'

Great times chasing bunnies...!  You all had a lot better day than I.  The Colts were dominated 3/4's of the game....

[Whump]

Whump Sez; Looks like a good time! You fellows should put Old York out front and let him drive those pesky wabbits toward you---any wabbit meister who is friends with a dude in Alabama with a handle like "Whump" will scare wabbits away from the group.. Hunt safe.    

[Old York]

Greg, we'll get  you out in front of me
and watch the buggers leave a smoke-trail
in the grass....of course, you'll nail every one of them too  

   

[Greg Szalewski]

Wish I could have made it. Perhaps next year.

[smoke1953]

Nice photos Tim and good meeting you.
