Anyone want to give me any suggestions?

Keep at it shootin' rabbits on the run with a .22 is alot of fun and good practice, could always go to a .410 until your reaction time starts getting honed. Good luck

Well then i guess i can keep at it
but no ways to trap wabbits?

I tried as a kid but no luck, but then again, I was a kid and had other activities, my devotion to it was in spurts. But if your going to try I would set up on runways. Also depends on type of trap your going to use, I was using a homemade box trap, and lost my mentor before I got any knowledge of how and where to use it.

I usually hunt rabbits without a dog and mainly when there is snow on the ground. Its been my experience when you jump a rabbit he'll run a short distance and hunker down then I shoot him.

Oh I'll one more thing, Gut made me think of it, they hook back, alot of rabbits we shot as they were making the turn, been awhile since I hunted them but seems like it was always left, but then again I'm a right hander so thats a natural shot for me so could just have been coincidental, being that was ehere I watched for them.

Can't tell you how many times I've been walking through a field and spotted a rabbit froze in the grass easy shots. Has anyone here ever been walking in the snow and look down and have a rabbit staring up at you through a hole in the snow between your feet? Rabbits do one of two things freeze or flee.

If you google--box trap for rabbits it will come up then click on how to build a box trap, several will come up so click on the one Capt black and there is a youtube to click, this shows him making one just the way I made them in the semo area when I was growing up, cant put them in a paths here in Missouri used by rabbits or any other mammel but the smell of your bait will attract them. good luck.

Survival manuals have several techniques that can work. Way back in my starving student days, I used a couple types of box traps and snares with some success. The legality was dubious, but it was effective back when I was $10 from living in a cardboard box. My little patch of sweet peas,spinach, and carrots drew in rabbits like crazy, which fell victim to a 22 firing CB caps. I stress that this was survival, not sport hunting. The starting point is to spend some time studying your prey, both day and night Like deer, rabbits are creatures of habit and usually follow established trails that create bottlenecks where traps are most effective.

It's not legal to trap cottontails here, but while attempting to catch other critters in a havahart trap, it happened fairly often. Corn was the bait.
