Dakota Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 In the bowhunting forums I made a post about a rabbit I shot with my recurve in the back yard. After some speculation, some thought that what I did was illegal considering the rabbit season doesn't start for another two weeks. And if it was illegal, I sincerely apologize and take full responsibility. However, in South Dakota, it is legal to shoot small game on your property if they are pests and/or are causing damage. So, just to clarify things, what I did was legal since they are a pain in our area. Thanks, Dakota Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BowtechTurkeyHunter Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 no problem Dakota.....really, don't let anyone get on you for stupid stuff like that Exactly watch close Dakota ... the same exact ppl that said something ... are the same ppl that either do it themselves or condone it in another thread just maybe not with rabbits or what not ... some ppl just need to get a life. Besides we would find it hard to believe it only took one shot to kill the rabbit anyhow:D:) jk buddy Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adjam5 Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 Pests are pests and if they are damaging human property, they have to go. Don't sweat the small stuff. You are hereby absolved from that rabbit:D Nice shot... with a recurve too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dakota Posted August 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 Thanks, guys! Well, the neighbors shoot them with pellet guns at ten yards, I figured I'd be more ethical and give them a chance. I just didn't realize how good a shot I am w/ my recurve! :D Dakota Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
