WABBITS (my first TURBO Kill)
For the past two years since we got the TURBO NOCK to market, everyone has been having fun hunting with them except me!!
I had rotater surgery and have just recently been able to shoot my 55lb bow with some degree of confidence.
Last weekend I was the designated camera man on an elk hunt in Colorado where we were trying to get some entertaining video by taking an elk with a cowsuit getup (COWMOOFLAGE)
I took my new High Country SSR bow with an eradicator sight and some turbo arrows equipped with Muzzy springy small game adaptors. I was basically trying to get the bow tuned in for an october deer hunt in Ill. ( I was one of the lucky ones to get an out of state license)
The first night on the ranch , as soon as the sun went down there were rabbits runnin around everywhere!
I got up before sunrise and walked out into a pasture and as the sky got light I could see a lot of rabbits hoppin around. As soon as the sun rose they all disappeared! Then the hawks started flying and I could understand why they disappeared.
The next morning I got up early, put on my camo suit I use for video. It is basically a (sarape) made from some camo cloth and it totally breaks up my body shape, kind of like a gilly suit, but lightweight.
Many years ago my dad taught me to hunt rabbits in pastures , by looking for their eyes in clumps of grass. If you take your time and concentrate you can pick out the little shiny black dot of a rabbit looking at you.
I came upon one about one minute after entering the pasture,
I juged him to be about 15yds and since this was my first shot I went for a shoulder shot. WHAM!!!! nailed him!!!
That little springy muzzy really delivers a lot of shock!!!
The next morning I tried again, filled with confidence in my
equipment, and amazed that the rebuilt shoulder was working .
This time it took about a half hour of clump hunting to find another rabbit. I estimated about 20yds and decided to try a HOWARD HILL head shot. Again WHAM!! nailed him right behind the ears.
I guess I am ready for some big Ill and Pa whitetails. If I can take a wabbit at 20 I should have no problem with whitetails??????
I wonder if anyone makes anti buck fever pills???
