Mo season hunting
Its been on crazy long rabbit season here in missouri. In a way i'm glad its over and done with, and in another, I still wish it was rabbit season...lol None the less this has been one of the best season's we've had yet. Season total is 384 rabbits. We hunted alot of new places and alot of the usual places. We hunted with new folks and some old friends. If a person was to just sit back and think about what these beagles do for us its just amazing. They bring good times in the field with your friends and also create new friends that last a life time. I cherish all the memories and time spent in the woods with these fine little hounds. I love being out in a good briar patch with the ol browning in one hand and my camera in the other. Nothing will ever take that away from me and I hope to spend many more days out in the field with a pair of worn out hunting boots my old belgium made browning light twelve a tore up hunting vest with a pack of hounds itching to chase me another rabbit back around to the gun. If you don't already know i'm a gun hunter first and foremost but Its not always about the kill its not about how your dog is better than mine. None of that really matters. Its about spending the time out in the wild enjoying myself for what I love the most, and thats Rabbit hunting! I hope that many of you will continue reading my hunting threads that I love to share with all. So sit back, relax and enjoy this thread.

its going to be hard for me to remember all the details of every hunt so at times it will be a picture story
here is a nice set of shed's I found while out hunting with board member matt c
wounded rabbit in the hole
Yep he was still alive with a broken back leg
Bring him here leah......good leah
My guard dog daisy. She stands over the rabbit and don't let anyone near it. Helps me out sometimes. she doesn't do it all the time though
This was a hunt with board member matt c I always have a fun time hunting with you matt. We're going to run dogs soon!
My buddies and I went on a Two day hunt somewhere in Missouri. We did good. Saw 30 or so rabbits a day. We took home 41 rabbits which was dissappointing cause of our bad bad shooting. I'm talking about myself. Couldn't hit a dang thing. I missed alot but did ok at times. 4 hunters with 12 beagles.

believe it or not there was a rabbit hiding in this hole. I tried to get the camera out as fast as I could but it was to late. he ran away.
this was two rabbits shot at the same time shot by me
thats a good leah
This is Leah's son his name is Bandit. He retrieves too and often just like his momma
if you see this stuff stick the hounds in it. Rabbits love this stuff for some reason
I thought this was cool
Another great Missouri hunt
Me and the hounds on my birthday
this hunt was on Jan 28th. One of my favorite farms to hunt. Had to stop at 18 rabbits thats a 3man limit. Saw way more than that on this farm. We had a hard time catching the hounds they kept going and going.

One of the coolest hunts I was on. Just stopped and asked for permission on a tree nursery that was very thick. The guy said yes and we jumped at the chance. Even had his two young sons join us for the hunt and also help show us around the place. They went in and knocked down rows and rows of trees creating long brush piles. You don't have a clue how many rabbits were flying out from every which direction. At one point and time we saw 8 rabbits in a matter of 4 minutes or so. that was a blast. Very nice people.
heres what it looked like in the nursery Video Link - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xT0p4Puvkk4
We always try and get a youth in there when we can. he knew all the dogs by name by the end of the hunt...lol
