Rabbit season starts the 1st. Whose going? Im working so im going a day or so after. Been seeing lots of them.
You can hop but you can't hide. Yahi Bowmen. Its not how far you can shoot but how close to the game you get when you shoot. Sights we don't need any sights. Why waist time reloading when I can be making arrows.

So to be fair to the rabbits I guess you will be shooting your bow with one hand tied behind your back? :signs1242cn:

He's better with that sling shot than most guys with hand guns . He just shoots it with out realy aiming . Awsome. Was checking the regs I think you can.t use a sling shot!. When I was a kid we had those wrist rocket sling shots, got kinda not so good. I got a pigeon once and Peeker got me a few times .

Great video on the sling shot guy..but did you notice a lack of vehicles in any of the shots on his road. Must be that all of his local friends know when he is roaming around weeding with his sling shot.Leave it to the country boy to get it right in such a nice way.

The guy I normally rabbit hunt with gets to pick up his new .22 pistol next saturday so we'll probably go that evening or maybe sunday.

My rifle is mine, it isn't for sale, and I only give guns to people that I really like.

I went out with my air rifle today, saw a lot of rabbits but most were too far off. As I was packing up, one stopped about 25 yards away and sat still for 10 seconds but my gun had already been emptied and I was putting stuff away. I didn't have time to get the co2 cartridge in my crosman 150 air pistol, I tried but the rabbit ran off when I was about to puncture it.

He got the swoopy looking Beretta. I think it is called the Neos. Which one did you get Johnny? Does it not shoot as good as you had hoped? Eventually I want to get a longer barreled Browning or Ruger that will wear a scope.

I got the sig misguito it is ok it's not a target pistol. It is picky on ammo I have to shoot federal 40 gr or cci mini mags. If I go to a 36gr hp round it will not cycle the spring is to heavy I think.I can shoot good with it I have put many rounds threw it.One of our employees brought over an older Ruger 22 pistol the model that looks like a German luger.That thing has a sweet trigger and is super accurate. I want to buy it from him but it might be hot who knows so I will not take a chance.

Those .20 caliber Sheridans are deadly. My cousin had one when I was a kid and he knocked the heck out of muskrats with it. I drilled one that was swimming away at around 50 yards and the pellet penetrated all the way thru the skull lengthwise and then skipped across the water for another hundred yards. I was impressed!
