    Daughter's first rabbit.



    My 9 year old's first rabbit. She has been dying to get out since the season opened last week. We didn't get any boars this spring in Texas, and she was most disheartened by that. So I got home early today and we set up in the paddock with her little Crickett. Eventually the rabbits settled down and came out into the open. The first shot went just over it's head, but the dumb bunny just sat there and looked at us over it's shoulder. The second shot hit it in the shoulder just below the skull, and came out through the front of the neck. It dropped like a rock, and it was all over except for the twitching. Her 6 year old sister is extremely jealous, and has decided that going to the range to practice may be worth while after all.

    That's great. I am a target shooter but my son is 14 and wants to go hunting. Guess it is time for both of us to get our licenses.

      The test is pretty simple. She needed a little clarification on some of the words on it, but she got a 91% on it. Sitting through the class with her was a tad tedious for me, but she enjoyed it. Even the movie of them gutting an elk with a leatherman tool.

        Why would someone rate this thread "one" star?

        I'm going to go ahead and give it "five" just to cancel it out.


        Cheers and I hope the rabbit tasted good.

            awesome! My 9yr old daughter wants to go shooting with me. So, I just got all her gear that's needed, and i'll probably take her out next weekend.

                She's got me beat by one! I haven't been able to get me a rabbit yet, maybe I'll make friends with some farmers this summer and fulfill my quota. Congrats to your daughter!

                  Good, have here encourage her friends to join her. I have wild bunnies in my back yard. Kinda fun to watch as they play "tag" with each other.
