2 out of 3 ain't bad
« on: June 30, 2015, 11:46:28 AM »
Caught these dogs in a hay field this morning. Knocked the 1st down with a shot to the noggin when he peaked out of a circle wheel line track. Moved to the next one that was looping away and as I was lined up in my scope and squeezing the trigger I caught movement with my off eye of a third running the opposite way. It was just enough of a momentary lapse in concentration that I hit the 2nd in the hips. Saw he wasn't going anywhere so tried to get on the 3rd but couldn't cast a shot before he made it to the sage brush. I picked up the 2 I did save a few deer and pheasant from and went about my rounds.

Good shooting.  Cute little buggers, but a good coyote is a dead coyote.  Good job!  :tup:
May I always be the kind of person my dog thinks I am.

Some would argue that pics like these give hunting a bad name.    I would agree.

who said he was hunting?  Maybe he was working a ranch or farm.  Ever seen the damage to equipment from coyotes digging holes?

Not the point  It's fuel for the non-hunters.  Plain and simple.

I own a large ranch and farm, and deal with coyotes every day.  I have never damaged a tractor or other equipment on a coyote den.

You're lucky.   Do you tip toe around the farm hoping not to offend anyone?

Luck has nothing to do with it.  We know what we are doing.  We respect wildlife on the farm.  Not sure what your point is.  Perhaps there is not one.

No, it's not.   Posting pics like those have nothing to do with managing coyotes.

Getting ready, looks like this might get good!!
It is better to be consistently incorrect than inconsistently correct...

Sarcasm: The ability to insult stupid people without them realizing it. 

My level of sarcasm depends on your level of stupidity...

Sarcasm makes smart people laugh and stupid people mad.
