eccles Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 Our phone has been ringing non stop lately, every farm got rabbit prob. All are saying the same never seen so many rabbits on their farms. They all know i suffer with back trouble,can only do a few hours then iv'e had it. I'd rather shoot crows easier on the old back .Have asked a few local lads but are waste of time. Have given a few land and i'm still have calls off them farms, 1 for the pot is no good to me or the farms. Rant over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kennett Posted June 20, 2013 Report Share Posted June 20, 2013 Im having the same problem, nothing all spring then all of a sudden they exploded! Shooting 30/40 a week of one farm of approx 350 acres and still not making a difference! Where abouts are you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eccles Posted July 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 Send them upto north Wales! Very few on my permissions, can't remember the last time I had one! i'll put them on the bus in the morning. Serious though mate they are bloody everywhere,went at 6 this morning with the 223 for a walk,my mates farm up the lane to see if a fox was about nothing but could have shot a ruck of rabbits and iv'e shot loads there all ready. Can go to any farm in the area and shoot 20 + in a half hour no prob its moving around here no joking bud. atb Terry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those that have them are very lucky, its been a drowt of them here for nearly 2 years :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rallyrus Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 Think this season just gone I had around 35, worse season I've had on the rabbits, I don't hunt them during the summer only at winter an still there's hardly any about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beretta28g Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 Youre lucky you dont have to shoot them through the summer, we have to to keep on top of the numbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rallyrus Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 I'd love to be out in the summer months hunting, some of my best memory's from when I was younger is spending the day out stalking rabbits with the air rifle!! I don't shoot any now, hopefully numbers will increase in the future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
