Well If you've been through here, I live behind the cotton gin. When you go down 111 from We2 turn right in front of the Boy's Store. I had 4 at the corn last night. So if you want some coons let me know.

hey slapout hunter have you tried just sitting and waiting in the evening and morning times,I dont coon hunt,but I have killed several with my bow on corn piles during deer season,and they usually come in well before dark and after daylight,and also as howler said coon sounds will draw them in,day or night,but be ready they can come down a tree very fast and be on your pants leg even faster,I'd take a shotgun for calling,and a rifle for sitting.Hope you kill all of them corn theives.

Naw I haven't yet. I have thought about doing that but just haven't. I don't have a E-caller but I get pictures of them everyday. So they come in on a regular basis.

take your 22 and kill them corn theives,you dont need a real bright light,a regular 6Volt light is plenty and you can hold it under you rifle fomearm when you get ready to shoot.And if you have a mouth call coons will sometimes come to distress sounds also they like bird sounds.I have called them in while bobcat calling with bird sounds.

I know how you feel Slapout.I started trapping them last year just to trim the herd a little.
