We had a good day opening day in East TN (Maryville, TN). We had ten races and was able to shoot 6 of them. My female had one good site race. It jumped up right in front of her nose and she was about 3-4 feet behind it going across the field.

I didn't see many hunters out on opening day. It was hot and dry. I checked out a couple of WMAs on opening day, one had two trucks parked, another just one with a license tag, Pennsylvania. No one was at the other one except me. Seems like the rabbits were going almost straight to a hole. (excuse number three). I talked to another rabbit hunter from Sneedville, TN today and he has had the same problem, although, he, his hunting buddy, and their two boys killed thirteen one day.
