What a great day for a great cause! Thank you to everyone who weather the weather to make it over to Sleepy Hollow State Park; we had a really good crowd and a record number of beagles. Thanks to all those who brought their dogs.

My son and I had a great time!  Drew, thanks for all of the effort you put into this event...we will definitely be back next year.  
We saw a few bunnies (none of which were stomped), meet some new friends, and got to hang out with my son all day...can't beat that!

Very nice job guys - very fun getting to know a few guys, BSing after the "stomp", great food, and fun raffle.

As soon as next year is scheduled, I'll definitely have it on the schedule.

And note to self:  bring extra cash for auction - that was a steal!!!!!

There are other rabbit hunts around the State but the Bunny Stomp is the best IMO. The food and the prizes made up for the lack of bunny's on the pole.

I had a great time...My camera was in my shirt pocket but I was so busy either stuffing my mouth or running it that I never thought to take a single picture...   :clapper:

You all did an awsome job again, everybody who was involved with the planning and put this event together deserves a huge thank you!!!! I am already looking forward to next year.  Love to hear those beagles sing.  And the proceeds go to a geat cause.
Too many bows to list, and so many more I want to try!  Keep the wind in your face, and your broadheads sharp.

I had a real fun time. Always great to hop across the section and see a bunch of trad shooters having a fun time. the money raised was amazing, and the food was plentiful. Thanks to all who pitched in.

I missed it this year due to bad shoulder and having to work. Sounds like it was a great time! If anyone can post more pics it would be appreciated!  There is a rumor that Rick Butler put an arrow through the center of the Iron Bunny!     :notworthy:     Can anyone verify that?     :dunno:

Thanks guys!  Had a great time, met some new people and won some Muzzy broadheads. Had fun shooting after the auction with some fellow trad archers. Can't wait till next year.

Thanks to all that put this on each year. Only wish I could do more. Had a great time again, met some new people and had some great food to go along with the bunny hunt. How could anyone ask for more than that. Can't wait till next year!!!
May your arrow always fly true and your hunt be an adventure.
