With the first warm day in quite a while we went rabbit hunting. Great day, great workout and a blast. 75 year old father busting his ass jumping on brush piles, junk piles, blown down trees. I am still beat a day later. Here is how you take a rabbit picture.

I LOVE a bunny hunt with beagles. Great job.
My dad and grandpa taught me to gut a rabbit as soon as you kill it. Most people I have met don’t do that. It looks like you guys don’t.
Try this sometime. Gut them but leave a couple with guts. When it’s time to clean them, start with the gutted ones. Smell your hands.
Then clean one with guts and smell the difference.

That's awesome. You must have some solid brushpiles there. What's your favorite way to cook them up? It looks like you'll have pounds of rabbit meat for the freezer.
I don't like gutting rabbits, so I just peel back the skin and bone out the backstraps and hind legs. I had fresh rabbit and grouse nuggets last weekend. It sounds odd, but rabbit meat rolled in some shore lunch and fried up tastes great.

I will debone, no gutting. Then brown them in a pan, then into BBQ sauce in the crockpot. I have a buddy who loves them, so he usually takes a bunch too.
We did not have a dog. We hunted about 10 different woods. 2 post and 2 drive.

That is crazy without a dog. I think gutting a rabbit hours after the kill is a revolting smell. Gut them immediately and it’s no problem. You could feed this to an anti hunger and they would ask for seconds. honest-food.net/sichuan-rabbit-with-peanuts/
