How many use their Bows for Squirrels and Rabbits?

I use to with Recurve but haven’t with Crossbow because it shoots too hard and is noisy.

:D The Big Grin would like running Rabbits for a Bow Hunter.

I used to live in a little mining town called Superior that sat in some beautiful desert terrain and was loaded with little cottontails. I killed a truck load of those things with my compound. Haven’t shot one since I moved out though.

It was a lot of fun when it was conveniently located right outside my door, but now just never seems worth the drive .

Got quite a few squirrels around my new place though so will probably give them a try when season opens up.
Use to carry bunch of Blunt Tips but don’t see anyone having a Back Quiver anymore.

:D The Big Grin Back quivers a bunch.
I've carried a recurve for rabbits several times and have killed several with it. One think I dont like about it is that if you hit in the backend or back it puts a massive hole in the meat and wastes alot. I'm not a good enough shot to front end shoot them on the run with a recurve or even sitting still 100% of the time..
I think @Mailman does
I use to shoot them being run by Dogs.

Oh it was Rabbits let the Dogs run them by me and I would shoot them. Little fast but I would get them.
