Out with Daz on Friday night just gone,

 

After shooting 86 two weeks before on this golf course you wouldn't think there would be much around, :yay: we have shot over 600 rabbits on this course in 9 trips and 86 2 weeks ago was our best to date, started off in the last bit of light got off to a good start 20 yards from the cars and a crow sat on a old bit of bunny 35yards pop down it went!! ;) Then into the bunnies Daz shooting first both of us still with 22rim started filling the box on the back in no time, we got to a little bit of wood on the course and rabbits running up the bank in front of us shot 3 with one head shot one bouncing around!! And just like a hawk a magpie dropped over the trees and pinned the rabbit down and started pecking it!!! :good: Wrong move as we where ready so magpie got it as well :P rest of the night was just rabbit after rabbit we both where amazed at the numbers still out there, we knew we had done the 100 but when we counted up 132 we were made up top nights shooting 164 shots fired. :yay:

I had some time to kill last night so went back up to sit on the 10th with the 17hmr as the 10th is the one that the green keeper tells us he has the most problems with, so sat there for 2hours ended up with 28 good fun with some shots taken at 165yards missed 2 but a good night

Blooming Heck Mate! I've heard of breeding like rabbits but they must be kicking the back side out of it, (Maybe they are at it so much that they just haven't got any energy left to run away with) where the heck are they all coming from?

Great shooting mate, keep us updated on the tally from this "well stocked" golf course please.

Thanks for all the comments chaps...

 

to be honest , if we had done another round, it would have been 150 easy...but we will leave it for two weeks...give the bolters a chance to fatten up..

 

i think 150 is on the cards one night ,,,maybe we will do an alnighter al? in a few weeks time?...thing is ,its alright getting those numbers...but then we have to paunch em..and that is a pain at 3am in morning...

 

As for where they come from...who knows..but there are tons of em...and even now we dont seem to be touching the population..!

 

will keep you updated...

 

oh and a parting thought....Alex lined up on two rabbits...sat one behind the other...and took them both with the one shot...great bit of shooting!
