Love it . Small question though................. Why do you use flu-flus for rabbit?  Does your hunting companion have a tendancy to tree them? :)

That's the best arrow rest I have ever seen! 

And I love your wonderful erdhund (earth hound), excellent choice for rabbit hunting.  Those dachsies always make me wonder how they can stuff so much personality into such a small package?  The legs may be short, but they reach the ground when he stands up, and that's all that counts!

Neat pictures! Thanks for sharing the St. Hubert's Rangers' website! I just finished putting together a medieval kit. I will have to get some pictures taken and submit an application!

Yeah, that is a nice size rabbit.  Nice work on the bow and the kill!
