Coyote Madness IV - (Enter Here, Ends February 28, 2012) (poll added)

FF, did you hit those last 2 in the butt?

The guy we take the coyotes to, that does taxi work says he has never seen a year like this as far as mange goes.  When he starts taking dogs beginning in early November, he figured 30% already had the bug showing up.  His only guess was the 90 degree plus weather we had in September then the quick cool down which was below freezing around here, then another warm up mid to late October.     Just know he has rejected alot of dogs this year because of no hair, or the start of losing it.  We also had some that were loaded with enough bugs you could see them crawling around in there. ( Not pretty )

Hell, I hit most of them in the butt! That's cause I usually  miss on the first round and they run off, it's the only shot I have left      


Gringo, that last dog was showing the better side, I've killed them that didn't have but maybe 4 hairs on their whole body.......That's bad mange when it get's like that, when they look like a rat terrier.

Good part is those mange dogs don't seem to run as fast.  I think it hurts em to even move....

One more for MNT. VERY slow today compared to Saturday. This one came into mice/vole squeaks but on our way into the stand we had spooked one as we came over the hilltop. It looked like such a good area that I decided to give it 15 minutes or so and try anyway. At about 10 minutes I saw one about 450 yards out and told my cousin. He glassed it and said there was 2. Got the mice going and he headed our way. Shot it at 94 yards and the other took off. I got some coyote distress going and he she came. My cousin missed at 200 yards. We saw a few but they just weren't coming in.

On the 6th set we heard one coming in behind us, we both turned to look, he stopped at about 20 ft away and gave us a very strange look. I think he was sizing us up. No shot winded us and was gone like a shot.  The next set called in this small male to within 40 yards, almost missed, low heart shot he ran about 50 yds.  Did get it on video, will post when I figure out how to do it.

Pretty sure I can still see his heart in that softball sized hole. Looks like it could have fallen out though

Long day of hunting for myself yesterday with no response to the call, but managed to get one as we were walking back to the truck spotted this guy off about 800yards away & put the sneek on him.

[FALFire]

Swag.........ya did better than I did yesterday. Seen only one dog at over 800 yards and he was heading up a big ass hill into wheat stubble, I wasn't going up that hill after him either. Wind blew all damn day long and put the Voodoo on the hunt, came home with tears in my eyes and my tail tucked up  tight..........but..... got over that real quick after a cold beer 

Great job there fellers, we are stacking these things up like cord wooooood. Hope the deer and pheasant population will appreciate all we do.

Bullelk, I think you are missing a turret cover there bud and it looks like you have the same problem I do......big ass gaping' holes in your dogs. The taxi asked me to please stop doing that! 

VarmintVentilator keeps telling me, SHOULDER, DAMN IT, AIM FOR THE SHOULDER!! 

I just never get a shoulder shot    it's always the butt that I get to see
