You got that right Jamie! If I didn't have the pruning shears with me, I'd still be in the middle of a sticker bush!  

I'm glad you were able to make it today. Nothing cleanses the brain like a good day afield. Striper season is just around the corner.

Shawn and Cindy thanks again for everything!

Shawn- It was great to be in the thick of it with you, Jamie and Pete again and see lots of bunnies. Even the weather was great. Hope everyone had safe travels home. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family everyday. Maybe I can get some pics of Pete's great catch up tomorrow. Going to get some sleep and try to gett rid of these cramps...

ttyl.

Thanks Shawn! Brian and had an awsome time.We each got a shot at the catch and release bunny but didnt connect.It was the rabbits lucky day.Must have been the 4 lucky rabbits he was carrying.I have to say that with all the health issues that Shawn is dealing with it hasnt slowed him down at all.I watched  him dive into a NASTY pile of thorns to grab Homers bunny.Nice to see Tyler and his dad Jeff complete the family double.Homer was on fire with a fine double of his own.A great way to spend new years day with some great guys.Thanks Shawn and Cindy for always making us feel at home.Shawn also made a great shot at a last minute bunny.Thanks for having us up.Glen

Thanks for having us again,Shawn and Cindy.You two are the best!
Tyler and I had a great time and we couldn't have spent a day with a finer bunch.When I heard Shawn was going to have this hunt I 'knew' what I was doing NEW YEARS DAY...wouldn't have missed it.Can't wait 'til the next one.
Way to go on your double,Homer.Pete,I've never heard of anyone grabbing a bunny like that...very cool!Almost makes shooting one seem like cheating.HA!
It was good seeing everybody again and we got some bunnys too.OOOOHHHH YEAHHHHHH!!!!

Hey thanks alot Cindy and Shawn, you guys are too generous!!!!  We really appreciate your hospitality.  Yes I dove and caught a bunny by hand but Shawn is down playing his perfect running shot to end the day.  I skinned that baby and what penetration!!!!  Perfect shot behind the front leg.  I'll be having fresh rabbit for dinner.  I don't know many guys that would share such prime hunting grounds with others. What a great example for us all.  Thank you very much.

Looks like a great time.  Cut my bow hunting teeth on bunnies in multiflora rose. Only snowshoe hares up here, and they are few and far between these days thanks to the yotes. Thanks for sharing.
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.

Guys we will do it again soon!! It was getting dark and I sneaked ahead of Matt(homer) on the final push. I see him enter a thick pile, I see him start to draw and as he is yelling BUNNY coming at ya Shawn, I had already seen the bunny busting out. He was streaking towards me and I thought he was gonna slow down, but he had another gear and kicked it in. I swung with him as he went by and just kept swinging and let her loose, it smacked him right behind the shoulder at about 8-10 yards, it was one of the better shots I have ever made. Lots of bunnies around here even though the coyotes are out hunting, I think they prefer venison. Can't wait until the next time!! Shawn

TTT for the afternoon crowd!! We had several piles where we had 3 or 4 bunnies under thyem and they held so tight they all never would come out after 3 or 4 guys jumping the pile. I believe this is due to the coyote pressure and they have learned to hold tight or risk dying!! I want to really thank Homer(Matt)as he inspires me to keep going, he pushes me as I do him and we both get the job done!! Thankyou buddy!! Everyone who knows me know I am a fighter and you all made me forget all my troubles yesterday and that I am forever greatfull!! Thanks guys! Shawn

When I arrived home last night I was pretty tired. I forgot to thank all my new found TradGang friends and the the old ones who it was nice to see again.
