Default Rabbit Hunting

I just bought a new bow but I filled both tags and the season is now over in MI. I went rabbit hunting with it. It was a ton of exercise running after them. I took one poor shot. I am guessing that we need more snow for me to have a chance. Has anyone hunting small animals with a bow?

Sure do. It is deffenetly challenging which makes it so much fun. When you do connect with an animal it's very rewarding to say the least.

I've taken a pile of rabbits with my bow. I suggest judo points or grasshoppers behind your points. I had a slow moving beagle, no running after them, he circled them to me.
