I'd say you found a honey hole. Around here, the cottontails are just coming off the peak of their supposed 7 year cycle. The predators are thick and the rabbits are thinning out.

Little over the limit?
I have been hammering them around here also. Hoping to get back out this weekend. I have been looking up sausage recipes to use them all up.

Sticks and stones may break my bones but hollow points expand on impact.
I figured you had 3 or 4 guys. Using a shotgun or a rifle?
I really like hunting them around here with a shotgun there is so much sage and they jet through the openings so fast its hard to connect. I take a rimfire when I want to make sure I bring some home.

We got a few inches of snow last weekend and the first thing that came to my mind was "This is perfect bunny hunting weather!" Unfortunately that was just two days after my surgery so I was stuck on the sideline. Worse is the fact that it's been years - like over a decade - since I last went bunny hunting.

Just went by your turn off coming home from Tennessee yesterday Jim, Even not that much snow till you get up into Michigans U.P.
Would love to get my old Savage model 25 pump out for some bunny hunting up here but we have 4 feet of snow, easier to snare a dinner, haha.
Savage- "never say never".
Nice haul!
where i lived in England before, we used to buy them at the butchers for around $3/piece and only seasonal, already cleaned and ready to cook...
how do you cook 'em?
One of our favorite techniques is to walk railroads. We put one person on each side of the track as "beaters," and one, the designated "shooter" on the track itself. When flushed, the rabbits tend to hop up onto the track and sprint a few yards and then dive off into the brush on either side. After every score we change shooters so everyone gets some time in the prime location. It's proven to be a very effective way to collect some bunnies for the pot.
Where are you at? My brother-in-law in Green River says they nary a one!!
