Cottontails Without Dogs

We hunt rabbits along the outside edges of woods, fence rows, brush piles, etc. Also I wear a pair of brush chaps, from Cabela's, to save my pants. The outside edge of the woods is pretty thick, but, it opens up enough inside to shoot.

With a fresh snow, I look for tracks and try and follow them up with my eyes.

I've found that rabbits usually run toward the interior of the woods. This happens often enough that when I hunt with a partner one of us stays in the woods. Normally that person is the shooter.

Rabbits usually they run about 30 to 50 yards, out from me, and stop. That's when I shoot with a scoped .22.
