As I get better with my bow, I want to get out in the woods and hunt. I know rabbits are tough to hunt. Are there many areas around Houston that I could hunt rabbits before it gets too warm and green? Sam Houston NF maybe? I figure that rabbits would be fun to hunt.

We went to the SHNF to go chase rabbits and never found any, however we did come across some hogs. I kinda felt the same way I like to eat rabbits and they are fun to hunt with a recurve, but hogs are just as fun. Maybe we could get another group hog hunt together and go to the SHNF. Krissopp and I found a pretty good place to hunt hogs, very open, but it is a bit of a walk down a pipeline. HMMMMM...........

This would be fun, another TBH hog stalk. It is bound to be a hoot!

That sounds fun to me. I have been thinking about SHNF because besides the required licenses/permits, it is free. I don't mind the long walk either. That is what I have heard about public land anyway. It is worth it if you put the effort in and go a little farther. Isn't that why we are shooting traditional, for the challenge? I am gonna have to change the title to Hog hunting SHNF!

Rabbit Hunting
I have been playing with the traditional gear on and off for a long time. I always fall back to my compound though. Last week I got my first traditional kill. I shot two cotton tail rabbits. Here is one. If you walk slow and act like you aren't after them, you can easily get to with 15 yards. I found it to be best hunting the sides of a private road druing first and last light.
