Title: vineyard dogs like shooting fish in a barrel
Post by: fullpipe77 on December 26, 2014, 11:18:56 PM: 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.

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

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?

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. :twocents:

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.
Title: Re: vineyard dogs like shooting fish in a barrel
Post by: fast1 on December 30, 2014, 07:49:43 PM: 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.

Post by: 100 grain on December 30, 2014, 08:17:59 PM: 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?
Title: Re: vineyard dogs like shooting fish in a barrel
Post by: fullpipe77 on December 31, 2014, 09:38:36 AM: 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.

Post by: Blacklab on December 31, 2014, 02:06:20 PM: 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 :tup: GL more pics please :drool:

Post by: pcal on January 01, 2015, 02:40:00 PM: :bdid: 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.

Title: Re: vineyard dogs like shooting fish in a barrel
Post by: Bob33 on January 01, 2015, 03:52:40 PM: 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. :tup:

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.

Post by: YoteSlayer61 on January 06, 2015, 09:26:00 PM: 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...

Post by: Mr.OutdoorsAJ on January 11, 2015, 05:51:32 PM: 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.
