How Not To Hunt Coyote
Yote46:
I am sure you already know this but I am going to share it only because I deserve to be ridiculed. I decided to start hunting coyote High-Tech so I purchased some electronics, caller, Mo-Jo and a GoPro to capture the kill for Youtube.
To make a long story short....I went hunting yesterday off of FS70. I was in full camouflage, using a shotgun with buck shot. Bow hunters were out so I did the 35 yard thing so I wouldn't hurt anyone with a stray bullet from my AR.
I called for about an hour and nothing was interested except crows. I gave it up and headed home. Once home I played with my new GoPro for a bit. I noticed that when recording a red light would blink. Well, I pictured myself sitting behind that log decked out in full camo with Velcro holding my GoPro on the bill of my camo hat with that stupid red light blinking. :bash:
Moral of my story is "STUPID IS AS STUPID DOES" Forest Gump

How not to hunt bears by H20hunter.
Last season was sitting on a spot I called the hub. 3 trails coming in at the end of an overgrown logging spur. All set up in my mini pop up, gun on the sticks ready to rock. Not to ling, sticks breaking like something with wide paws walking. Coming in. Game on. Gun is up, safety on, finger indexed. Out walks the bear. 35 yards. Bear stops, not a big bear, but a bear. Breathe, safety off, finger slides past the trigger guard. Next exhale brings the x to the spot. Dead on broadside. Bear takes a step, gone. Ginish my exhale, finger off, safety back on. No more action, back to the truck, drop the floor plate and palm four rounds. Moral of the story is you at least gotta chamber a round before your think of taking the shot. That is not how to hunt bears.
:tup:

Only thing worse would have been a bear charge while you trying to figure out how he got on top of you so fast. :tup:
h20hunter:
Psh....this was not a charging type boo boo.....this was a barely past kicked aside by momma 100 pounder. I still would've popped it.....or at least given it the ol "click". I still smile thinking about that hunt. Not having to hear the snap on an empty trigger makes it a fond memory. We learn more from our unsuccessful hunts sometimes eh.

I use black electric tape to cover that blinker. Taped it once and never took off.
