Up at 4 o'clock my dad and I were off on the road.2 and a half hours later we met to other people up at our destination.We were going for a big walk whistling foxes.I had my bow, my dad had his 222 and the two other guys were backing me up with shot guns.
The first fox came in and got nailed by a shotgun right in the head.
I was on the other side of the hill and got this rabbit at 40 yards.

Another three foxes were shot.I got a shot of at one of them.It went just over its back at 40 yards.Your Adrenallin really gets pumping when foxes come bolting in.
Later in the afternoon I sat off about 4 rabbits.I shot this one at 50 yards.

I also broke a G5 S.G.H and lost an arrow.I hate it when that happens.

Over all it was a fantastic day.

Good shooting. Apart from the G5 that broke (from a rock jumping out I expect), how did the G5s hold up? Are you happy with them?

Great job.
My rabbit spot is exactly the same as that... COVERED in those rocks. It's a real b!tch of a place for bowhunting... neally every second shot you take breaks an arrow against a rock and every second step you take snaps one of the old dried out twigs or a pile of dried out leaves.
But i recon the chalenge is the best part.:)
