Thought I'd share a couple picture's of my nephew Isaac, my Dad, and me from a hunt over Christmas. It was his 2nd time shooting a gun with the 1st time being only an hour before at an old tree stump just for practice. I don't know who was more excited, Isaac, my Dad, or me. There was high fives all around and a bunch of cheesy grins. It wasn't an easy shot either, that rabbit was moving to stay ahead of the dogs, Rocket, Huckleberry, and Dolly. Needless to say I was very proud of him and hope to get him over here more often for more hunts as he lives 4 hrs. away. Why is it Dogs never realize their getting their picture took.

because they are dogs!

Great pic and even better story.

congrats on his first rabbit. good story. hope you can get him hooked on the outdoors. by the way i like your black and tans from what i can see

Congrats to your nephew.

Good deal, Rich!

Congrats to your nephew,good to see people take time for kids.

How exciting! Congrats to you Isaac, you're hooked now! It is kind of hard to tell who is more excited lol. K

Congrats on your first rabbit! Good to see young kids getting involved. I can still remember that first one I shot. Thanks for bringing back many fond memories for me. Again, congrats.

Thats too cool, great story and pictures. Those dogs are hiding thier faces like they are afraid of getting recoginized. That young man will never forget his 1st rabbit, and his time with an uncle who cares.

Thanks for the comments guys, and I still remember my 1st rabbit with my Dad and Grandpa right there with me like it was yesterday. With my 2 girls to young to go on an actual hunt this sure was a treat for me. To see the excitment in a youngman's face as he enjoys the outdoors is priceless. Now I just need to talk my little sister into letting him have a hound of his own. As for the dogs we ran that day, the males are Blueback and Bigtime bred and the female is Rush Hollow Maverick/New city.

I know how ya feel my son got his first one on Saturday. It puts everything else in prospective.

congrats..nice to see you teach him the geart outdoors .hope to get my grandson his frist rabbit soon .Want it to be Hare
