Tyler’s 1st Rabbit
Well I had a few hours to kill before heading over to my cousins house to rock in the new year..So what else is there better to do than “RABBIT HUNT”
My new brother in-law was up from Oklahoma – where he is stationed – so we figured we would go shoot some bunnies. My son who is 10 has never been before so this was his 1st trip hunting rabbits. He has his own Ruger 10-22 so he was ready to go! The place we hunted 1st is one of our favorite places to hunt rabbits and has produced big time in the past. This time was no different.
One of the 1st brush piles we hit Tyler got his 1st shot at a rabbit and connected perfect! As any kid would be he was 
excited to get his 1st and now is hooked for life! This spot ended up producing one-a-piece for Wes, Tyler and I. I ended up getting one more, from another property we hunt (thanks to the Stevens Family), which made 4 total for the day.
It sure was nice getting back out rabbit hunting. With all this cold weather we have had the cabin fever was starting to get to me. It also was the 1st time I have got to hunt with Wes and let me tell you we had a blast!
UPDATE!
Managed to get out on Saturday with my son Tyler and Matt. Matt ended up getting his 1st rabbit ever! I have to give him props after trying to shoot his foot off when one on the rabbits ran straight at him and went between his legs..lol! The 1st part of the day was real slow, but we did end up hitting a spot that produced about 12 rabbits in about an hour! Talk about having a blast! To bad we couldn’t hit those fast little bunnies(.22′s are tough) We did end up with 3, so that’s 7 for the freezer! We were so tired from hunting 8 hours that wwe forgot to get pics.

Congratulations on a great hunt! And to Tyler, Keep Up The Good Work!
I wish the farm had turned out more Bunny’s for you guys. We have some cyotes that we’ve been trying to get rid of, so I know they have somethong to do with it.
Sounds like a lot of fun with the kids… I have never been much of a small game hunter, but with two boys that are crazy about hunting ANYTHING, I believe we are going to have to go kick some brush piles to keep them entertained now that deer season is over!
