chinning rabbits

[Matt 160]

You will find that most professional rabbit catchers use the chinning method while the rabbit is in the net. As for Karate chops......... save it for the playground.

so long as the rabbit is killed humanily thats the main thing

 

but let me just say , a rabbit does NOT need its head through the mesh to chin you can do it whilst its balled up

 

and if your in public view , it is farm more profesional looking than either the strech or a priest, now im not saying the strech or a prist aint quik , just saying what looks best when being watched.

 

the thing is with chinning is its a real nack to doing it, and is very difficult to teach,

Id say its easier to grab under chin and pushed head backwards, but prefer stretching myself

Cant for the life of me see how that works? can you explain or put a pic up?

streching the rabbit as in holding back legs with one hand, other hand with fingers under chin, pull and twist, rather than chinning, having said that, someone has posted a link to a u tube ferreting clip, that shows "chinning" on all the rabbits, so I'll certainly be trying this method on tomorrows ferreting trip, as others have said, it certainly looks easier/better if public present

i was shown from a very young age the old karate chop

so i stuck with it untill recently

but the thing with the chop it dos not work first time every time

 

now ive been shown how to strech them

i stick to it as it works 99% of the time

The thing about karate choping them is i alway's thought it very unprofessional and often after being out with guy's who do it your skinning the rabbit and its just a mass of blood and bruising from the shoulders to the head .Far better to pick up the rabbit in the net chin it or stretch it in the net put it down in the net and set a new net over the hole

well lads tried the chinning method today and it works a treat. the rabbit had just bolted in to the net as i picked it up it started to scream just as some dog walkers were walking down the trail that goes through one of the fields, i thought please bloody work!(thank god i was not about to do the karate chop!!!!!!!!!) and it did first time i laid it on the floor and then the walkers decided to try to give me a lecture about animal cruelty etc etc so i explained to them politely that its not cruel etc then another rabbit bolted so said my goodbye's(yeah right) and proceeded to chin another one. so thanks for your advice on this method its another string to the bow in dispatching our quarry quickly and cleanly

cheers tony

I just looked on You tube, there's one on there 'ferreting the mega warren' have a look at them chinning all there catches in the nets...

I always chin in the net and stretch a dog retrieve.When chining they do scratch with the back feet if you're not careful, bloody hurts.

Tried chinning a very wet dog retrieve one night and my hand slipped sideways under the chin,left me with a deep cut and bled like a pig in the rain.One thing when chinning you must hold it tight by the throat as if to cut of the air and a quick positive push back with the chin.All takes a split second.

Hope this helps P1

Quite coincidentally i was just shown chinning today!!!! Ive always stretched them and never had a problem but ive been out all day with an absolute top lad, and i asked him about how he was necking them as i hadnt seen it before. he showed me and i tried it and found it to be much easier than stretching their necks.
