    As the title says, this weekend was my very first hunting trip in AZ since moving here from CO and my brother's first trip ever holding a gun to hunt. He even got his first rabbit with a one shot down with the 9mm; so very proud of him and jealous of his luck. Wouldn't be possible without the...

    Hi! Does anyone want to go look for some wabbits up near Cordes Junction? I was looking to pet them... with my shotgun of course. Roast me all you want, I don't eat the jackrabbit from this area, they taste like cement and I've had a lot of them with parasites, which as a microbiologist...

    Don't ask me why, but for a number of years now we have made it a tradition to eat rabbit on Easter. Got this bunny a few days before Easter. To give you an idea of the size of the rabbit, we cooked it in a turkey roaster. To get into the spirit of things we also had a side dish of roasted...

    I couldn’t resist going out one last time for the season. I’m not a morning person, but that’s when I’ve been most successful hunting rabbits. I left my place at 5:30, watched the sun rise over the desert, and I decided to do some still hunting. A black tailed jack hopped within range pretty...

    I caught rabbit fever this year. I got obsessed with hunting and eating rabbits, mainly jacks, for dinner. I experimented quite a bit and thought I’d share my experience here. 1. Tularemia and Parasites. If you cook your rabbit to 160 degrees you’ll be safe. My dad was a field biologist for 30...

    Hey there everyone, I'm so glad I came across this site as the commission website really hasn't been all that useful . First off, I haven't been hunting in quite a few years but am eager to get out there now that I'm in a new terrain with new game. I'm originally from PA so I'm pretty...

    Hello im glad to join the ranks. I currently shoot a savage 17hmr with a nikon 9x for varmint. I have had poor success as of late at rail-x and in 37 b (willow springs). Maybe I am not traveling deep enough into these areas? I usually start pounding sand 3 miles in or so. Rabbit seem to respond...
