Dog Vertebrate Carnivore Dog breed Mammal
Hunting Deer hunting Vertebrate Hat Fedora


So stoked I finally got my first hare and rabbit on the same night of spotlighting. The hare was huge as it made the fully grown cotton tail look like a baby. I would guess it was around 6-7 kg (12-15 pounds). Unfortunately I had to quickly finish off the rabbit as the ball hit low in its cheek, missing the brain or neck. Interestingly though the hare dropped like a rock with no nerves at all but I'm assuming that was due to better shot placement. The shots were 11 and 7 metres respectively. Please ignore the "stylish" socks and thongs combo in the photo as well.

Thanks for reading.

Das erinnert mich an einen Artikel, den ich mal in einer Jagdzeitschrift gelesen habe. Man hat die Strecke von Treibjagden untersucht. Dabei stellte sich heraus, dass bei den meisten Hasen und Kaninchen das Schrot nicht ins Gewebe eingedrungen war oder nur knapp unter der Haut steckte: Die Viecher sind einfach durch den Schock tot umgefallen.... Also sind Hasen und Kaninchen optimal für die Jagt mit der Sling!
