We only got 11"s at my Dads, I had no one to go with me today. The dog wiped Dad out last Weds, and he tore the muscles in his groin, but he was up and feedin' the chickens nd peacocks by he weekend. He says he is going to guide for the bunny hunt no matter what. I didn't bother huntin', I just took a walk. There is one bunny right by the house, that should provide some shootin, if someone does not kill'em before the hunt.  OOOOHHHH YEAHHHHH!!! Shawn

Only 11"!!! We are about 20" and drifting during the storm. Tuff for bunnies right now, but I have a large grove of white pine on some state land that the red squirrels are so thick, feeding on the cones. You can sit pretty much in one place and they will run buy on a stone wall they use for a highway. Great fun, have to use rubber blunts or the stone wall is heck on arrows.

You can make it in about 1.5 hours. Down I-88 to the Thru-way and then head east to exit 23. My daughter went to Oneonta State and we could make it in an hour-twenty. You should come, it is a blast and you will get to meet some graet people!! Shawn

Tom, I don't think anybody will be laughing at us because we will be putting out all of the bunnies.  I hope the snow ain't too deep for Sonny and Ben.  Take care.  Shawn

Joe,  e-mail me, so I can talk to ya. I will send ya my ph. # again. My 'puter is acting funny, so send me an e-mail an maybe I can respond. I hunt hard all year, everything I do I do
 hard, when I am done bunny huntin' for the day my wife usually spends a half hour picking stuff out of my head, ears and face. I still have a thorn from from a thorn apple tree above my right knee that has been there 2 years. My Dad is working on a new spot that could hold forty of us easy, it is about ten minutes from the house. We never hunte it but it looks real good. If hegets it, I will try to get in there to check it out before the hunt. I am getting antsy, it is not too long now!! OOOOHHHHH  YEAHHHHHHHH!!! Shawn

Hi, Shawn.. yeah. still keeping up with the thread. And good stories....
Someday you and I will take the Great Hart by our own skill alone, and with an arrow. And then the Little Gods of the Woods will chuckle and rub their hands and say, "Look, Brothers. An Archer! The Old Times are not altogether gone!"
