Rabbits are not usually at the top of my hunt list in the fall, but come February and they are the perfect ending to a great hunting season. I grew up hunting rabbits in my youth years and learned how to swing a shotgun. Back then, I didn’t have a bird dog, so rabbits were the only predictable quarry we could find. Hunting rabbits in the snow on a sunny day, might give you some of the best hunting action all season long.
The wife and kids were out for the day and I knew the farm across the road the I hunt all year for doves, deer, and turkey had rabbits all over it. Lots of old fence rows and brush piles made this farm a perfect rabbit hunt. I just never spent the time to do this solo in the past few years. Hunting small game is always more fun with the company of friends. So, we beat the brush and were rewarded with lots of jumps and constant action. After chasing elk in high altitude country and sitting through long frozen hours in the deer stand, chasing a few rabbits seemed like the perfect way to end the 2018-2019 season.
