first alberta fur down!

Got out to start the coyote calling season today! And just like last year it didn't disappoint! I killed 4 coyotes today and my buddy killed 1. Shortest shot being 50 yards and the longest was 400. The long shot is my furthest kill yet! That yote hung up out there due to a cow that was at the base o...

Called this first one just after lunch. Tried Rabbit distress, pup distress, then howls and nothing. At the 15 min mark I tried m...

Re: New Toy

I personaly love the Rem700. Everyone says they take all this work to shoot good but any rem I have had puts them in the same hole right out of the box.
Like the look of the Howa as well. Not really a fan of the CZ

Re: 4 Dawg Day!

The 35gr bergers are workign very well. Most of the dogs I shoot I cannot even find an entrance hole, They don't even bleed. Go straight up the leg and shoot them right in the shoulder DRT. I find on smaller dogs if I shoot them behind the shoulder I get a small exit. I have shot a few out in the wi...

What kind of foxpro are you using? The whole set-up with camera tripod intrigues me..
SPitfire, with an external SP-55 speaker. Works Great!
