Hi guys. I live in Oceanside. I like to hunt CNF. I am looking for anyone interested in a hunting partner they can show the ropes to. I currently hunt small game rabbits, upland bird etc. Would like to eventually get into bigger game. I have not bagged anything yet. So anything I can...

What particular method did you use for this kill? Spot and stalk etc. What time of day was it? Is this your first animal? Sorry for all the questions but I am itching to learn as much as I can. Jeremy

Nice job! Hopefully I am not too far behind you. lol. I just started hunting not too long ago and am also starting with small game. I use a longbow so it might take me longer to finally reach my success. Anyway nice hit and have fun!

I have gone rabbit hunting in several parts of CNF with no luck yet. I see lots of scat!

So far I have gone hunting for rabbits. Jack rabbits are open all year! Going after small game till I get some experience and then move up from there. I have been researching as much as I can on turkey this spring.

Very cool!! I am 34 has well got my first hunting license a few months back. I have only just recently gone hunting for rabbits with no success yet. What type of game are you wanting to hunt? Ever considered archery hunting? I am personally strictly a longbow hunter. What part of San Diego...

I am brand new to hunting. I went on my first 2 hunts for rabbit several weeks ago. I have heard that Turkey is very difficult especially with a bow and traditional longbow at that! Anyway I wanted to see if I could get some advice on things such as clothing plaid, gillie suite, ground blind...

Hi Nick! I use blunt points and also field tips with little washers behind them. I guess that is pretty standard. I wonder if flu flus would be appropriate for shots under 25 yards? Take it easy. Jeremy

Thanks guys! Are there any particular tactics, methods that work better than others? I have done a little reading. I hear "kicking them up" is a tactic many bow hunters use. I will also be paying more attention to seeking out food sources. Jeremy

I just went on my first hunt ever yesterday. I shoot a longbow. I did not see any rabbits at all? Am I too late in the season for rabbits? What about Quail? I see this type of small game everywhere around my home, well at least the rabbits. The minute I go into the true wildlife areas I...

Alright I am back! Wanted to mention that I just got back from my first hunt(rabbit) today. Definitely a learning curve with this! lol. I figured today was basically just a chance to go out and get an idea for what the terrain is like. Found out that it can be a lot tougher to get 150 yards...

Hi Tom. I just joined myself a couple days ago. I live in San Diego county as well (Oceanside). Good job on finding that private land! I shoot a bow too (longbow). Thats all I will be hunting with. Anyway, welcome and good luck with everything. Jeremy

Well I will never get the performance of a compound or even a modern reflex-deflex longbow. I have yet to shoot through a chrono, also getting some 80# spine arrows made as week speak. I will tell you this Craig at Howard Hill archery states that this bow shoots a 115 fps. plus the draw weight...

Yes those were great archers! One of the best Trick shooters today is Byron Ferguson.

Welcome Eric! I live in Oceanside at the moment I am not from California either moved here in 06'. I will be working in San Juan Capistrano shortly. Unfortunately I don't have any interest in guns. I am strictly a longbow shooter. Maybe we can help each other out though? I know what you...
