Hey all, what beautiful weather we have been having here in California in the past several days. I wanted to share a recent trip we took into some remote locations here in the local mountains. This has been an area I have spent much time scouting and was finally able to spend several days filming here. The area has a ton of Native American history and is so vast I have not yet explored all of it. The area I had chosen for the hunt has one of the largest populations of Black Tailed Jackrabbits I have personally encountered. I will enclose several photographs of our adventure followed by a video I hope you may enjoy as well.
Area that overlooks only a small portion of huntable land
Marley and I hiked down into the rocks
Small cave painting inside
Marley taking a break in the shade
Old barn we found built in 1900's
One of the areas full of Jackrabbits,super green.
Small Jackrabbit moving about
Marley and I setting up for a shot with the EVOL
Took a shot on this guy with a ricochet hitting shoulder
Another large Jackrabbit taken with headshot
Hit so hard he did a front flip
Marley recovered
Tom making 82 yard head-shot
Took this guy running up a hill 63 yards
Hunted till late evening with total of 5
Tom watching the hillsides for movement
Nice head-shot with the .22 EVOL
Marley trying to get out of the sun
As you can see from the photographs and screen shots the place is a dream to hunt. We ended our trip with a total of 8 Jackrabbits, my cooler was packed. I can't wait to get back out and try for more when time allows for it. Here is the video that includes a look at my kit along with the footage from our two day hunt.
