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

[Heredoggydoggy]

I don't think it's any surprise that the SBA team took top honors.  Congratulations to those dedicated coyote-getters!
What really surprised me is that we tied for 5TH PLACE!
Don't know about the rest of you, but I'm going to be honing my skills on the dogs that are still out there, and hopefully will be in a better trim for Coyote Madness V.  Until then--Maybe Next Time!

Was there ever a final picture of that dog pile

I'm with you. After getting skunked all winter after hitting it hard, im determined to get better. Actually had a few dogs come in the last couple weeks, but have only put one down since March 1. My goal for the next 12 months is 100 dogs.

[FALFire]

Well for me, I'll be waiting until next fall to get after them again, this time of year is good to let the mama dogs have their pups so we have more targets next season. I am totally inundated with working on my home right now, I have been working on my kitchen for the past couple of weeks and haven't given one thought about coyotes since my last trip out in February. Plus I'm still looking forward to putting a deck on the old bunkhouse during the warmer weather that's coming.

This is just by MY count. Someone else, please go threw and check the #'s

[Raul Duke]

And wile I was going threw the whole thead for a second time. I was looking at the pics. This is 1 of 2, I really liked (from page 30) . The other involed a Texas Heart Shot  . So I'd like to nominate SWAG for best pic.

I almost forgot to post this little guy, I got him coming out of the pasture next door,  the day after all of the Freezing rain.  Even after he took a serving of 168 grain A-max he still didn’t want to give the goose up.

[BOWHUNTER45]

Dang ....that awesome .... good job guys ...definately a few less yotes out there !!!!

thats an awesome shot their now !!!!

[bearpaw]

Thanks again Raul Duke.

Gringo and CamoKen, it looks like a tie, do you both agree with that count?

[VarmintVentilator]

   Man, how could I forget CamoKen.  122 coyotes between Gringo and CamoKen, dang that is alot of dogs between the two.  Amazing.      I'd like to see Gringo's reloading room.   

[Gringo31]

I'd like to see Gringo's reloading room.

 

Either that or the pallet of rounds that I buy at a time?   

I had 63 in my mind but I'm thinking those 2 that Swag posted late probably didn't count?  Even with 63 I'll catch hell from Swag as I told him my goal was 65.  You just can't please some people

Looking at the numbers this is my take:


CamoKen - 61 Total Sleeper!  We just got to get him to tell his stories of the kills a bit more.  Too much carnage not to share.
Bullelk - 48 is rockin and with video to boot!  Most impressed with the video 
Big10gauge- 43 is not too shabby for someone who hunted about half of the time.  I think he hunts half the time open sights and in hunter orange to keep it fair.
FALFire - 32 seemed like less that I would have guessed.  I know I was about to put a few ads in the paper to find you a job 
Swag - 25 Solid showing for my bud "The Professor", he puts in a lot of effort.  Oh, the nick name is due to his abilty to "educate" coyotes.   
kim204 - 21  Another sleeper and solid perfomance and I thought he had more than 21 
MtnMuley - 16 I'm still waiting for his 2nd and 3rd pic to come out.  I think SBA just didn't post them as they already beat 2nd place by 50 dogs 
VarmintVentilator - 13 has got to be a typo.  Either that or he only counted the ones he shot over 450 yards.


All in all....once again this has been a hoot.  SBA are true champs and I'm thinking I'm going to have to relish the ONE time I've seen them beaten, they get out, get after it, burn the shoe leather, can flat out shoot and have a lot of fun doing it.  I'm lucky and work to keep the dogs away from livestock and its nice for the dogs to be coming from wherever into your area.

I hunt much of the same ground and it appears that it takes 2.5-3 months to rid them from my area.  That last month the last 2 years has been brutal.  The dogs are just MIA and no more seem to want to move into the area. 

Again, I'm most impressed with the video posted this year.  That is top notch!

Congratulations guys! I joined this contest for the first time last year and ended with zero coyotes for our team so it feels good to contribute and place. I had more time this year so going from zero last year to 20 or whatever we had this year was awesome! Hopefully next year we can build on that and maybe get to 50. We figured out some stuff this year that should help a bunch next year. One other thing, I see on a lot of sites that people are saying the coyote hunting has been REAL slow this year. Well I'll tell you, I have never had a better year especially late in the season. Most of my kills were from January on to the end.
