first you got to shoot them, which seems easy untill they start hopping/running like crazy

ive had luck with a 12 gauge and just the cheap target loads

Re: Wild Rabbits?
 

Yeah, I tried going after them with the bow last year. Got pretty close but no go. This year I am busting out the shotty

That might ruin the meat for you.

Nothing like getting a bit of bird shot in your dinner.

I always heard rabbits are best to kill and eat during times of frost, has something to do with parasites. Rabbits from May to October are unfit for eating or something like that. Someone knows what I'm talking about.

Re: Wild Rabbits?
 

#6 shot works well or .22 will get the job done
they have a parasite that looks like a slug that live under ther skin samething with squirrels.

Re: Wild Rabbits?
 

so do you see it when you are skining them? That was my big concern also was how do you know if they are safe to eat.
