Default RE: Coyotes at night

Do any of you use GAME FINDER?
That is one of those flashlight like looking hunting gadgets that detects infrared heat off critters. Cabella's Mag. sells um.
Nice VCR tape comes with it showing how to find shot critters.

It is supposed to be used to find downed game after you shot it. Soon I'm sure it will be illegal to have one in possession because it works wonders finding live game.

Today's coyotes (game too) doesn't run from us. I've shot boar not 50' away. Game Finder said it was there. I kept looking and looking and looking and finally I could make out the boar for the shot.

Game Finder says coyote is on hillside as you walk along. Not 35-yds away, Hey, I swear you will have a tough time picking out the coyote from the rocks. I hate that when you can't tell so walk to it and a rock gets up and bolts off.

Good for deer too. Got my deer this year not 50 yds. away, standing still frozen in place. And it took me awhile to visualize the deer for the shot.

Setting up for coyote calling, we never see them come in as a rule. Game Finder lets you know, something is out there coming in and where.

Lights: I bought that night light for mounting on a rifle from Cabella's.
Ohhhh Gawd, with red lens in, 100 yards away and scope, piece of cake.
