Silvertip Gets Bunny
« on: January 07, 2008, 12:34:00 AM »
I tromped around the sagebrush today scouting for postseason mule deer (saw 23) and trying to find a bunny.  Got a good shot at this cottontail at 6 yards.

I was shooting my brand new (one week old) Silvertip recurve.  It shoots SWEET!

Hope everyone is fighting off the cabin fever.

Did you manage to get a pass through on that behemoth?

That looks like beautiful terrain, and crisp weather.
What type of head did you use?

Nice bunny, looks like you have plenty of cover for them out there.

but the diligent feed on the riches of the hunt.

I shot the bunny with a blunt at about 6 yards.  He was hunkered in the sage, so I could only see a set of ears sticking up.  The arrow didn't pass all the way thru, but he was trapped in the brush with the shaft sticking out both sides.  It was a nice cool day to explore some new territory for a possible deer hunt in Sept.

I was on snow moving equipment on the runway all weekend or that could be me (I wish).  I love to hunt the bunnies when the deer season is over.  Congrats on a good stalk and hit-enjoy it.
Our late season deer is over for those lucky rifle hunters and My son's friend scored on a big 5 X 7.  More importantly he saw a great lion.  that's next for me....only 6 miles from town.
