Rabbit hunting is a lot like squirrel hunting, but with a few key differences. When you go out to hunt rabbits, your primary focus is on getting close enough to blast them with a shotgun or rifle shot. Rabbit hunting isn't as much about chasing down a fleeing prey animal as it is about patiently stalking it until the perfect opportunity arises to take down a rabbit with a clean shot.
A common misconception about rabbit hunting is that you need an immense amount of luck to be successful. Although things can certainly happen in the woods that can throw a wobbling rabbit off of its course and cause you some trouble, underlying principles of good stalking and target acquisition will always deliver success over time.
