February 17, 2024 "Rabbit Hunt"

Kitty Fork Outdoors hosted the 3rd Annual
Veteran/First Responder/Disabled Parent-Kid Rabbit Hunt today. Six organizations came together to make this event possible (North Carolina Handicapped Sportsmen, Battle-Scarred Outdoors, Veteran's Creed Outdoors Eastern Region Trips & Events, The Fallen Outdoors East Coast All Veteran Community Page, North Carolina Veterans Outdoor Official Page, and Kitty Fork Outdoors). They started the morning with breakfast, a safety briefing and a hay ride to the hunting spot. Rayden was all set in his track chair. Action started right away with the beagles jumping rabbits. One even ran out of the brush, around my feet, and back into the brush. I'm glad no one tried to take the shot! The wind picked up, making it harder for the dogs to pick up the scent but they still managed to get seven rabbits. Rayden never took a shot, but Alex killed one, nice sized rabbit. Everyone enjoyed a wild game lunch before shooting Michael's new rabbit skeet thrower. They rounded out the evening with some rifle training on the shooting table. Everyone had an absolute blast! 🐇
