Coyotes have shut down here this week... must've gone to daytime movement during the break in deer seasons.

Not all is lost though;




Forgot you guys counted fox... could've had more pics! :(

It didn't start snowing where I was hunting until late morning, but then boy did it come down. Now I am back home in Pueblo and can't do much with the 3-4 inches of snow we got yesterday and last night.

RE: 07 Predator contest submission pics.
 

Yeah, the snow, and the wind really got serious about 30 minutes after I shot this coyote, and by the time I was about 2 miles from the truck, I was second guessing my decision about taking such a long walk about, plus I only called one other coyote after this one and it didn't offer me a shot. Guessing the wind and heavy snow didn't help me any, since I really thought I was in the "meat and potatoes" part of the ranch by then.

We got some good snow here too, I was really wanting to get out sunday. But saturday night around 9 pm My wife an I were on our way home from dinner and we were involved in a wreck a drunk driver outta nowhere nailed my truck. Long story short the SOB ran but my wife was able to get the plate number an color of the jeep and the cops had him about an hour later. When it was said done with the jerk was drunk and had a suspended license and no insurance and 3 warrants for domestic violence and drug charges. he'll be going away for along time he's now got felony hit and run, a dui and driving on suspended lisence and no insurance on top of it.

But now Im left with a wrecked truck and my wife an I are both pretty banged up. gotta call my insurance company in a few hours. But as soon as my shoulders and back quit hurtin I will put a new EGR valve in my other pickup and get it runnin. hopefully Ill get in the field before this snow melts.

So far I've made a bunch of unsuccessful stands around my house the last couple evenings. Between 3 gazzillion pheasants, 2 gazillion cottontails, and 1 gazillion jackrabbits, I can't get any dogs to respond. Last week while pheasant hunting we kicked a dog outta some cattails and my buddy ran him down with the pickup an shot him, it was as mangy as they come.

I am planning a few trips across the state and probably head down to Nebraska soon.
