I had one that I used to wear to Rendezvous and sold it. Just too warm to wear in June. Got me a nice felt hat to wear instead.

I really like the coyote hat that Les Johnson wears on his hunting show. I would like to have one of them. And it sure does look warm. Tom.

Now where would I find a coon Bronko?

(Unless maybe I checked under the corn feeder on one of my food plots. )

quake, that picture is from a Moultrie/Cabala's Outfitter 5.0. camera. It's no longer listed by Cabalas, but is exactly like the current D-50 except mine has a camo finish.

These cameras have mixed reviews on the Cabalas site, but mine has served me well for three years. I get about 700 pictures from a fresh set of six D-cell batteries. Response time is a little slow, but for the price I paid I'm well satisfied.

Here's the D-50 - http://www.cabelas.com/product/Hunti...3Bcat103867380

Here are some daytime pictures from that camera.

Semi you need to be stretching some furs. There is some coinage walking around under that feeder. Did you ever try calling in coons?? It really is a blast. And there can be some real fast action. Tom.
