Nice shot and nice video too! Pretty impressive for a .17 actually.   :tup:
Make every shot count cause ya might not get another.

I know I was pretty stoked with how well it did, I was a little worried how well it would do out past 100 yards but it did wonders at 150  :chuckle:

My Cannon HF200 HD is 3 years old. It's small but has a good zoom and with a tri-pod it works great. That was our first video and with some more experience with this new video editing software, we should be able to start making some great videos. We decided to leave the "misses" and comedy in the video because it added to the realism. Im glad you guys enjoyed it.

That is one of the coolest kill shots I have seen in awhile. That 2nd yote was crazy! I have never seen a yote give that many 2nd looks back!

He kept looking around like what the hell is buzzing around my head.


Maybe we are on to something here :chuckle: Maybe he just thought it was a fly buzzing by his head :chuckle: My 223's and 7mm-08 I call with are a little louder :chuckle: So I might have to buy me a 17 and try it out :chuckle:

The little .17 did good, I think ill stick with head shots though cause im not sure what it would do to vitals?

Yeah it did. I have a buddy that has shot more then a few with them. I think head shots are a great idea with that cal past about 75 yards. At that range I am sure you will kill them but you will have a lot of runner. Those little suckers blow up pretty quick. We have shot my 22lr along with his 17hmr into a lot of yotes. I get a lot less runners at 50+ yards then him.
