Rabbit Hunting

"To stand along high on a stump and hear the hounds screaming at the top of their lungs. To see months of training culminate in a spectacular run, and finally see the rabbit coming full throttle straight for you. And to see him almost frozen in an instant of time as the shot connects and he tumbles into three inches of fresh snow; that is what rabbit hunting is all about." It's hard not to agree. Written by one of the country's most renowned cottontail hunters, this guide will give you all the necessary strategies and cottontail facts you need to get out there and experience this fun for yourself.

If you’re looking for a hobby that will get you “off the grid,” out of the house and back to nature, there are few out there that can top hunting. It doesn’t matter whether you intend to become the next Daniel Boone or you just relish the idea of getting back to the basics, this sport will provide you with plenty of challenges while testing your resolve and even your mental prowess and physical stamina. The reality is there is nothing quite like sitting in the woods or on the edge of a serene lake waiting for the right game to approach. The peacefulness, tranquility and sheer exhilaration of being in the wild make hunting a sport worth pursuing. If game is spotted, the excitement level climbs even higher. For many hunters, it doesn’t necessarily matter if game is caught or not; the act of hunting is a reward in and of itself. To actually bring home game at the end of the day, however, hunters do need to hone certain skills. When all is said and done, the success or failure of a hunt often comes down to having the right skills (and perhaps a little luck) to put up against the natural, and often well-developed, defenses of the animal in question.

For many Southern men living in or close to rural landscapes, hunting is a passion. But it is not a timeless activity in a cultural void. Whether pursuers of fox or raccoon, deer or rabbits, quail or dove, Southern hunters reveal for Stuart Marks complex patterns of male bonding, social status, and relationships with nature. Marks, who has written two outstanding books on hunting in Africa, was born and has long lived in the South. Examining Southern hunting from frontier times through the antebellum era to the present day, he shows it to be a litmus test of rural identity. "Drawing on the latest anthropological theory, statistical sources, extensive interviews, and historical research, [Marks] has crafted a multifaceted account of Southern hunting. Relations of race, property, gender, and region appear in fresh guises in this innovative and intriguing study. The portrayal of the contemporary state of hunting is especially interesting, revealing both the continuities with the past and the new pressures on the sport."--Virginia Quarterly Review
