Ok i basically have the same question as the squirrel hunting one. Rabbit season opened sept. 1st for Nebraska so for my 3 day weekend im hoping to be able to go out a little and hunt both squirrels and rabbits. any suggestions? tips? thanks!

Spot and stalk. Keep a close look out for an eye, might be all you can see if it is hunkered under a bush. Also, if you run one off just sit tight. They will usually come back to where they were hiding.

Also, if you are moving slow and jump one, stop and watch him close. Often they won’t run far and stop behind cover close and sparse enough to offer a shot.

All good advice. I usually spot them in rocky areas or on the edge of brushy spots. They tend to be more active morning and evening, or all day if it's really cold. I tend to break a few arrows when I'm hunting bunnies because of where they live. Remember, that's part of the game. I keep score: If I kill more bunnies than I break arrows, I win!
We've had a string of terrible rabbit years, so I hope we're about due for a good one.

Thanks guys!!! I just gotta find the place where the rabbits are!

Well, if you find some let me know. They sure as heck aren't around here anymore.

Throw a rock into my back yard and chances are you'd hit at least one rabbit or squirrel. I've even run over several rabbits while mowing my back yard.

Rabbits… boy I sure wish I could find any rabbits. I’ve never seen bunnies where I hunt. It’s old hardwood forest lots of oak
