vineyard dogs like shooting fish in a barrel

[fullpipe77]

I have a frind who manages vinyards and orchards He tells me cmon with me I see them all the time. We went to scout it out and I made a huge mistake!  I left my rifle at home.  we get to the area and he  is telling me how it is, driving about 10mph passing row after row.  There's one! He backs up and we are having a starting contest.  The thing didn't budge, we drove on and that was repeated seven more times!!!  He said you want to go back and get your rifle?  What do you think.  Went home got my rifle and Bang!  I dropped this guy about 75yrds away.  I needed to get home but I am going back there tomorrow.   Its just to easy there the darn dogs have never been shot at!  Ever coyote we drove up on sat there.

Sounds like a blast and some good practice.

[Carl]

Man, that sounds like fun!

I've yet to get my first.

[pashok23]

Thats fun

Hope your NOT shooting out of your vehicle.

[Woodchuck]

Assumption of the worst when there is no real cause to is a big reason more people don't post more success photos.

Don't see anywhere that he mentions that so why would you even bring it up. What if he has a disable permitt. I hope you whack a few more dogs sounds like you got a good spot

nice shooting, would love to give ya a hand putting some of those dogs down for a nap

Do you have a round in the chamber? Is the safety on? Looks like you are pointing that at the truck? Did you shoot from the truck? I bet you were trespassing. Is that your rifle? Did you violate the law by not registering the transfer? Did you chew your food 87 times before swallowing?

Sheesh....some people..........DID HE SAY HE WAS?

[h20hunter]

Gripe post done....

Nice looking rifle, well done, keep shoot'n and posting!

[bobcat]

I couldn't care less where you shot from, just kill more is all I ask.   

[fast1]

Wow! A guy drops a shuttle reminder of something that we are tempted to do and you jump all over them! I would say that there may be why people don't post on here more then they do. He didn't say he did, just hope your not. We all have to watch one another's backs in this sport in today's day and age.

Good job! Nice Pic!
Note: When hunting the Vineyards from a boat, all forward motion from your engine must have stopped.

Why is it grapes are toxic to my dog? (I've heard this), yet coyotes eat the heck out of them?

Looks like an orchard not a vineyard. Coyotes love apples.

[fast1]

I have a few vineyards I do some control at when I have time. They do eat grapes and the drip lines to the extent of thousands a year. But like Brody said, they love Apple's when other foods are hard to find.

[Dan-o]

Hope you DIDN'T rob a bank on your way there.

Thanks for posting fullpipe...honestly never crossed my mind to ask permission to hunt vineyards/orchards. My last piece to ar will be ordered shortly so I'll be ready soon! Is your rifle hydro dipped or factory?

[fullpipe77]

my ar has gun tape.  I like because its cheep and does the job, plus if for some reason I wanted to sell it I could remove it.  I was very tempted to dip my gun but I didn't want to spend that much for camo.  Getting permition to hunt vinyards and orchards is difficult. I am a ups driver and have known this guy for a long time with that comes trust.  A lot is going on with workers allways pruning and what not, its a big liability.  Good luck you will never know untill you ask.

Congrats on the dog. Seen FoxPro fur takers do a show on vin yards pretty fun to watch. They were saying the vin yards attract mice an rabbits which attract coyotes. They were also saying the yotes  destroy the properties to, chewing waterlines  and digging holes ect. Good times to be had  GL more pics please

yeah........ no need to cut the engine BOAT hunting an orchard.
Ive seen coyote scat loaded with the spent wine grapes also.

[JJB11B]

What you do is put a sight on a pistol and then you say its your concealed piece to get around the loaded weapon in a car

[Jerry malbeck]

WOW, Yall need to take a chill pill .
Im sure we all know its illegal to shoot from a vehicle right? NO not everyone does .
just giving a friendly heads up .


Would i prefer he used a FoxPro ? Really ? Hell yeah much more FUN to call them.

[Dan-o]

I hope you DID NOT type that while driving!!!

[Lucky1]

 

[Jerry malbeck]

Sure did used my knees to steer. 

[Dan-o]

 

Good night.     

[JJB11B]

Thread Jackers. Keep it up man! Kill them song dogs!

[pcal]

         What kind of idiot shoots the one thing that is keeping rodents from chewing the heck out of your vines or trees in orchards.Just ask yourself one question: Why are those dogs in the vineyard? Do they eat grapes or fruit when none is present? I lived in Canada and we spent a lot of money to wrap our trees and grapes because of rodents but the snow would get above the wrap and the mice could girdle them unless we had predators.  I wouldn't mess with coyotes or fox and bobcats as they kept the mice and rats from striping my trees. A good dog will keep them away from the barns and chickens and other stock.

[JJB11B]

but they're so fun to shoot

[Bob33]

I'm sure there of lots of laws we could think up that someone could break, but shooting from a vehicle wouldn't come to mind for me.

To be clear, if the engine is off, and the vehicle is not moving and not on a public road he could shoot from the bed or across the hood, and if he did I hope he killed some song dogs.   

[fast1]

We shoot them in vineyards and orchards because they chew the Heck out of drip lines. A lot more damage them mice.

your better off shooting the coyotes and ill tell you why.  more coyotes you kill the more young there will be next year. young coyotes must eat more than an adult coyote because they are growing. they also rely more on rodents than older more exp. coyotes.

Who cares if you are shooting out of the vehicle if you were on private property with the landowner and there are problem dogs I'd shoot everyone of them out of the truck.not like you're on the side of the highway shooting deer...

[Mr.OutdoorsAJ]

Any follow up...? I want to know if you ha a chance to go back out and shoot more. I have access to a huge vineyard and have been thinking yote hunting on it would be fun with a shotgun or maybe night time.
