Title: Kansas Bunny Stomp 16
Post by: lablover on October 06, 2015, 05:05:00 PM
I know its early to start planning but with Kelly gone we need to come up with a place and a plan. So who has an idea where and who wants to cosponsor with me this year? We can't let the tradition die.

When and where does this take place?   Probably won't make it this year, but I'm in talks about a job north of Wichita.  Hopefully I'll be up that way before too long.

Kelly was a great host and will be missed. I will be hunting some public land around Salina and will see if I find anything promising. One of my favorite hunts of the year.

Here is a photo of Joe loving something other than a Lab. The dog's name is Roy and his job was to chase Griz out of camp at night which he was good at.

Good times. He was good at his job missed him this year in Colorado . Hope your season goes well John. You should come down to visit if we get this bunny thing going.

Hopefully this lands on the one weekend a month I get off. I hated missing this the last couple years. If you guys are willing to come way out west I can start looking for some possible spots.

Well, we've had them in NE Kansas,Valley Falls, Central Kansas(?),Riley, so West would work.
The main thing should be finding someplace in Kansas that actually has some rabbits...   ;)

Start hunting tree rats instead, then you guys might start killing stuff then at least a lot more shots. Bunny's are thin everywhere in KS. IMO

I have intended on participating in this, and haven't yet. Maybe this year.
Title: Re: Kansas Bunny Stomp 16

Man Paul your getting awfully picky rabbits available at the rabbit hunt what a concept. Besides if we had rabbits we would have to stop talking and shoot.  Yeah John, I'd be willing to go west as long as there's someplace to stay.

Post by: Paul/KS on October 08, 2015, 08:28:00 PM
Well, I wasn't complaining mind you, it's just the guys in the other states might be making fun of us since we do more stomping per rabbit than they have to do.
Though I'll bet they don't get to shoot at little yellow rubber ducks...   :D

Post by: lablover on November 06, 2015, 04:34:00 PM
Anybody got any ideas for where? Cant do when until where is determined. somewhere central state best but no ruling out other places. Hope everyone is doing well with deer season.
Title: Re: Kansas Bunny Stomp 16
Post by: Paul/KS on November 07, 2015, 09:45:00 AM
Well I'd guess the "When" will be after all the deer bow season. How's the area around Kanopolis for the "Where"?
It's pretty Central and, while I know there are deer and turkeys there,are there any rabbits?
Title: Re: Kansas Bunny Stomp 16
Post by: lablover on November 09, 2015, 03:01:00 PM
Don't know but I'll try and get up that way and do some stompin around.
Title: Re: Kansas Bunny Stomp 16
Post by: Caleb Monroe on November 09, 2015, 04:05:00 PM
I'm 30 minutes from kanopolis. I can go and check it out. I'll post results. Might be awhile before I can go over there I'm in nebraska for work for till this job is finished. I know there are squirrels there. Behind the dam it seems like a place there should be rabbits.
Title: Re: Kansas Bunny Stomp 16
Post by: lablover on December 23, 2015, 03:29:00 PM
Great anymore ideas let us know we are open for suggestions on where and when.
Title: Re: Kansas Bunny Stomp 16
Post by: Caleb Monroe on January 16, 2016, 09:09:00 PM
I was over at Kanopolis for a rabbit scouting trip and trout fishing expedition. I focused behind the back of the dam. The terrain and habitat look like there should be bunnies lining up to accept arrows. I walked approximately 3 miles through the area with no bunnies sighted. What I did find was what appeared to be a good place to deer hunt next year. Saw a few squirrels. Might be able to scare up more bunnies with more stompers as I was solo today.

Oh yea I caught 1 trout also. If anyone else has any more ideas for where I'm game.

I went last year down around pleasanton KS. There were lots of rabbits, and we shot a bunch between 3 people (don't remember exactly how many).

Ignore my sig, I now live around southern Overland Park  (kansas city)

Post by: snakebit40 on January 17, 2016, 09:33:00 AM
I have the last weekend of this month off. Not sure how that works for everybody else. I'm game to meet somewhere in the central part.
Title: Re: Kansas Bunny Stomp 16
Post by: Bryan pinick on January 17, 2016, 01:25:00 PM
Like the location and approximate date above.
Title: Re: Kansas Bunny Stomp 16
Post by: snakebit40 on January 17, 2016, 02:40:00 PM
Well 10 minutes after I posted that I had the last weekend free, my wife advised me differently. I'll just sit back and watch this. Hopefully it lands on a weekend I have off.

Work, work definitely as my wife stands over my shoulder. I'm good with either pleasanton KS or Kanopolis. But the last weekend of January is out for me how about 1st weekend in February?

The first 2 weekends of February work for me. If there are rabbits in Pleasanton we should go there.

Snakebit do you know what weekend you have off in Feb. Regardless of the where you are invited to stay the night in Salina with me. Colby is out there a ways.
Title: Re: Kansas Bunny Stomp 16
Post by: lablover on January 21, 2016, 01:43:00 PM
Second weekend in Feb. Work for everyone and how about Pleasanton? Also need a RSVP for those who think they'll come.

Saturday or Sunday..?
Either would work for me but, FYI, Sunday is Valentines Day...    :)

Sorry guys I will be coming back from my hog hunt the second week of February. Go forth and stomp without me. I will catch you guys at a shoot this summer.

This needed to go back to the top regardless.

If you had your Wildhorse Creek bow from Mike Dunnaway Joe and I would see ya in April.    :p
hope you have a good hog hunt.    :)

So is anyone interested in Pleasanton second week in February?
Title: Re: Kansas Bunny Stomp 16
Post by: Paul/KS on February 02, 2016, 08:00:00 PM
Saturday or Sunday Joe?
I've been told I can get a Liberty Chit for either day.
Title: Re: Kansas Bunny Stomp 16
Post by: lablover on February 03, 2016, 10:39:00 AM
Saturday
Title: Re: Kansas Bunny Stomp 16
Post by: Paul/KS on February 03, 2016, 01:39:00 PM
OK, I'll see if CJ can make it too.
Never been there, where will we meet up?
Title: Re: Kansas Bunny Stomp 16
Post by: lablover on February 04, 2016, 05:15:00 PM
So far its just you and me CJ (maybe) and Andrew of course its his idea. So far no one is jumping on this might have another in Manolito but if that's it we should find some place between you and me to meet we can go out together.
Title: Re: Kansas Bunny Stomp 16
Post by: Caleb Monroe on February 04, 2016, 06:33:00 PM
I'm bummed interest is down on this. This is one of my favorite hunts (Pig Hunting is my favorite). Heck the pie alone is worth it. You guys have fun anyway. Sorry I have to miss it.

)))))-------PIGGIES----->>>>>>   :archer:
Title: Re: Kansas Bunny Stomp 16
Post by: Paul/KS on February 04, 2016, 08:04:00 PM
Let's give it a day or two Joe and then we can see if we need a plan "B" that meets in the middle. Oh, and CJ said he can make it.
And Yes, there will be a buttermilk pie...    :)
Title: Re: Kansas Bunny Stomp 16

This is a fun day out guys. Great people and exercise.

Paul bad news I won't be making it on the second weekend as my wife tore her meniscus and MCL so they are doing surgery on the 12th. Sorry we can reschedule for the next weekend she should be back on her feet by then and maybe some more interest by then. CALL me if you have any suggestions. Joe
Title: Re: Kansas Bunny Stomp 16
Post by: Paul/KS on February 05, 2016, 01:38:00 PM
Hi Brett    :wavey: , I know you'd be there if you could Amigo.
Sorry to hear about your wife Joe. Hope the surgery goes well. The rabbits can wait...
