If you're a yote which would you rather eat a day old sheep/calf or a jack rabbit. I know you know why the predators are killed

do y'all know of anyone who offers jack rabbit hunts from helicopters with high powered automatic weapons?

I'd prefer to hunt over high fence rabbits of possible.

Have some friends who are interested in doing this next year. They are equipped with suppressors, thermal and night vision. Who should they contact to gain access to some property to hunt?

You know anybody that owns land in these counties? Ask them. Otherwise, I don't really see much of a way to hunt it unless you or your friends are just a hell of a talker. I know I would have reservations about complete strangers showing up from across the state to randomly ask me to hunt my land for a rabbit contest.
It said in the rules that teams were responsible for procuring their own land to hunt. If land wasn't owned by a team member, all members must have permission to be on said land.

One of my teammates shot a flowline. Glad it was the guy that owned the place and not me.

Reported to the proper authorities and repaired. Just doing our part to keep the oilfield hands employed

18 hours and 800 rabbits is about 45 rabbits and hour.
This is the kind of hunting I would want to do. Just shoot and kill until you are tired. But it would be like football two a days when you run till coach gets tired.
quote:I first read that as you have a 10 year old rabbit that you took hunting.
Took my 10 year old out rabbit hunting last night along with my neighbor and his 10 year old son. We hunted from 9:30 until 1/00 a.m. Easily killed over a hundred with kids doing most of the shooting. My buddy laughed. We circled a piece of property and it looked like we never shot anything when we made it back around to where we had started. You could have started over and done it again but way to late for the boys. My son did most of his shooting with a 20 gauge. He went through 3 1/2 boxes. His friend shot a .22. We also brought a 22-250 and a .204 for some distance shots for myself and neighbor. Great fun.
Quote of the trip (from my neighbor):
As he was laughing - "City kids just don't know what they're missing."

Seems senseless to kill all the predators then kill so much of what remains. I'm on 3 acres outside of Bandera and we have a lot of rabbits but I don't see the harm.
Although I do agree that it is self-defeating to kill predators.
If you think Bandera is pretty you have obviously never visited. It's rocks and weeds and ash juniper, mesquite and lots of wildlife!
I love being in this rocky rugged mess though, beats the manicured city neighborhood.
