Well we had a great group if guys , 8 of us total. Had a couple good runs with the 3 beagles and 2 missed shots. Thanks so much to all of you guys who came from near and far to hunt today. The food,stories,and laughter were top shelf for me. Met some new trad buds today(Bob,Drew,Larry)and again was reminded why I love Trad so much....The people.

I sure did have a great time what a blessing to hang out with such a great bunch of people. The dogs did a great job the rabbits were sitting tight under cover and a fresh snow covered almost all the tracks so we worked for the runs we had. I know there were a few pictures taken can't wait to see them. Were hoping to repeat this in s couple weeks.

How blessed I am to be associated with TG and the members I get to spend time with. As always, I am humbled to know these people with such great character and a love for God's great earth.
    Thanks again Guys for a great time and the sharing of good hunting dogs and food. Thanks to Bob and Larry and Drew for joining our hunt this year. It's a tough area of the state to find Rabbits this time of year, but we always have a fantastic time.Some day we may even get lucky and kill a Bunnie or two. Until next time, God's speed my friends.

I wanted to start my post by thanking my fellow hunters for sharing a great day walking in the winter woods. The shared hunting stories, casual conversation, stump shots, and laughter were just what I needed.

Thanks Alex and Jim for bringing the over eager puppies. There is nothing wrong with a walk... but the hounds made the day a hunt!
My pictures are not the best but I do enjoy photos in threads so I will add em in to give you an idea of our day.

Coming from north of buffalo the roads were a little sloppy. It took an hour on the 90 before I could set the cruise...
 

David did some great leg work knocking on doors and getting us new ground to hunt. Thanks Knawbone! This was our first stop.

I would describe the area as open farm land with brushy ravines that we targeted...

 

If my memory is correct we saw three rabbits in the first spot
 


We really had to work hard to get the dogs on a track. here we are spread out along a corn field. Jim pushed a rabbit out of a little clump of cover between a corn field and hay field

At 1:00 we broke for lunch. We had plenty of food but for me the highlight was Davids still hot venison stew and the two 10-packs of hot dunkin coffee I believe Andrew brought... hot stuff on a cold day is the best!

The group shot was from our 2nd and last stop for the day. We had our best/longest run of the day here. My last photo and the favorite I took, was taken here as the sun set on our day... Good times! Thanks Guys  :)

Thanks Alex... I like taking photos, even if its just with a little phone camera. Ya... Gerald and David were really good buddies last night, I am grateful to them both.
