Ive heard of people using blowguns and you could use a slingshot. I guess if you could throw hard and accurate, you could just chuck a rock at them.

I use a blowgun and slingshot and trying to get more accurate using an atlatl so i can go after bigger game. So far my biggest with the blowgun was a jack rabbit and biggest with the sling was a coon.

I killed many birds,rabbits and squirrels with a slingshot as a kid,but now that I'm an adult I realize that it is illeagal to use these weapons on small game in kentucky,you should check your local game laws so you dont get in trouble.I knew some kids that lived near the railroad tracks that would sneak up on rabbits and hit them in the head with a stick about 3 foot long and 2" in diameter,I didn't beleive it until they took me with them one day,they could kill a sack full of rabbits in a days time,to this day I've never saw it done with a stick by anyone else.But that was 30 something years ago and we dont have nearly as many rabbits now.
