Yeah, there's plenty of hares around. I helps to have a dog in the low years like this. I've been able to pick up a few every time I go out, but I got beagles. They find them for me and push em out into the open. If I was trying to push them out myself I'd be having a hard time. I think the last month there seems to have been more hunters than usual. Every time I go out I have been seeing other hunters as well. The late snow made for prime rabbit hunting conditions. On another note, the rabbits we shot yesterday were the smart ones. All the dumb ones got shot first earlier in October and early November. The ones we shot yesterday stayed tight into the cover and were hesitant to let the dogs push them out into the open. They also ran wider circles than usual. In places I go where the rabbits usually run in 200-300 yard circles, they were running in 400-500 yard circles. I even had one yesterday try to outsmart the dogs and run over the railroad tracks. My dog followed it over the tracks circled it back around and ran it back over the tracks again. One of my sons tried taking a long poke at it right after it crossed the tracks but missed. You can learn a lot from a GPS collar.
