mulie hunter Report post Posted March 22, 2011 The past two Saturdays I've been going out doing some Rabbit hunting with my New PSE X Force AXE 6 Bow. Gotta stay tuned up for the upcoming seasons! Contrary to popular belief Archery is a year round sport! Anyway the previous Saturday I arrowed a Jack @ 60 yards my personal best to date. 40 yards was my previous best Jack! This past Saturday as I was out in pursuit of yet another Jack, I approached a Wash, when I thought I heard a Rattle snake, but thought to myself, no... no snake... as I proceeding to walk into the wash the Buzzing sound got louder and sure enough 5 yards away was a Nice big old rattler... But something didnt look right... It looked like there was a ground squirrel right in the middle of this coiled up hissing wanting to strike me Rattler. I drew my bow back and let the arrow fly hitting the snake just above his tail as he tried to crawl away,but the arrow pinned him to the ground! It wasn't a ground squirrel that was gonna be Mr Snakes lunch but a little baby cottontail, who took advantage of his good fortune and hopped off! I sent another arrow into the mean ol Rattler feeling Good I had saved a cute little bunny rabbit! 60 Yard Jack Mr RattleSnake Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
