I've got to say, I'm impressed by those shots made on cottontails I've been seeing. That ain't easy, While deer and such are a bit harder to get close to, they offer a much bigger target and I'm not trying to make light of those trophies. But those rabbits? Especially the head shots, that's like hitting a golf ball. You all that post those are some exeptional bow hunters. In my whole life I've only connected on maybe 3 with an arrow.

I've got a few bunny pics of different sub species and different locales. Always fun. Always challenging. Always tasty.

Tiny Texans...

Midwest and west...

Jacks are rabbits too (ok, so they are really a hare...

Here's a little TX bunny. They can turn an uneventful hunt into alot of fun!

Its a passion of mine. If Im not deer hunting, squirrel hunting or fishing Im hunting rabbits. Shot this one in his head on the run. Yeah, I meant to do that.

Izzy · « **Reply #9 on:** January 17, 2013, 07:32:00 PM »

Shot this one through his neck on the run. Again, I meant to do that. Bill Langer captured it on film.

I use mostly Ace Hex Heads but Ill also shoot fieldpoints if theyre in thick brush. Those Hex Heads are deadly on them. Gonna try VPAs this week. Cant wait.

Man, between these bunny pics and those Curt posted the other day I am sure fired up for some wabbit!

Just a warning to any folks hunting bunnie with trad gear for the 1st time with Hex Heads and such. Be very careful shooting into thick brush at close range bunnies. A springy branch or twig will fling an arrow back at you and a nock of an arrow could do some severe eye damage..

Izzy. Right on. I had a fence sling an arrow back. Great unique sound, but so unexpected.

So Charlie....just how close to achieving the Hare/rabbit slam are you? And how many sub-species is there anyway....anybody know?

Loved your book, BTW, Charlie!

Charlie Lamb · « **Reply #19 on:** January 18, 2013, 08:01:00 PM »

Mark,

There are a lot more sub species than I have means to hunt them... though it's a great goal.
I've done eastern cottontail, mountain cottontail, desert cottontail, whitetail jack, blacktail jack, and snowshoe hare.

My buddies and I in Wyoming had our own "slam" but it was pretty simple though surprisingly difficult.
We had to take a snowshoe hare, jackrabbit and cottontail all in the same day. I pulled that one off a few times.

Glad you enjoyed the book buddy!
