awesome!  Our rabbit season in ohio doesnt start until november.  When does yours start?  You also mentioned calling in jacks.  How do you do that?  Only thing we are shooting around here besides foam this time of year is frogs or the occasional groundhog.  Great pictures!

Looks like some great eating! Ive lost alot of sweet corn out of my garden this year to those little cotton tails. All I can do is chase them away waiving my bow. Season doesn't open till Nov for us.

someone refresh my memory. There is a saying about what months you can eat cotton tails? What are the months (something about months ending in y?)

rxhntr  its months ending in R but that is a bunch of bunk. We do not get cold enough weather to kill the paracites that they have any way .Its the same stuff deer get. Grubs and fleas. Just added protein.

Sorry about the auto spell check. Our partner is a ferrier
and he gets horse owners to allow us. We get invited back every year. Inside the city limits busting with bunnies and quail is so nice
