Way to go Howler, that wind has been a thorn in my side for the last 2 months here in Illinois. They are calling for 15 to 25 WNW in the morning, so maybe I'll get out later in the day. I have three spots that are new to me, never been called, so I need to wait till the wind lays down, that's the problem with being a weekend warrior in this game.

Lets here it for Howler... The only one carrying this team right now... Hey just found out that I can buy a non-resident non game for Idaho... $29... done deal... We have a 12 hours contest in the morning.. will let you know how it goes... Then the game is back on girls....[8D]

Bowman, I use handcalls most of the time, cut my teeth on them and still use them most of the time, BUT I do have a Fox Pro that I use every now and then. I can see the advantage to using ecallers, BUT to me, I don't get the same experience/rush/sense of accomplishment when I am using the Fox Pro. The excitement level is much greater with the hand calls. On the first coyote that I shot yesterday, I used the Fox Pro plus hand callsand I placed the ecallernear D. On the 2nd coyote, I was using hand calls only.
MyAR is my go to calling rifle. It wasn't cheap, BUT who ever said money can't buy happiness, never used a custom built AR for a calling rifle!
Mostof the coyotes that I shoot don't come easy. I probably walked about 7 miles yesterday, for 2 coyotes.Themain reason for my success is the simple fact that I don't get out of a truck and walk 200 yards and go back to the truck. I walk, and walk, and walk, and glass and walk and walk and glass, etc.. The hardest part of calling coyotes in this country is getting into thier back yard without them seeing or hearing me coming. Most guys simply won't put that much effort into calling and killing coyotes.

Get after'em Pure!!! We got chasers close on our heals and I think they're out for blood!

Howler, your right, I woulda been there in the blink of an eye! The drive from central SD to Coloarado ain't too far................

This weekend was the coyote calling contest. Placed second!! Woo Hoo. Bad part is, only three teams joined and the third didn't show up.

Here is the what we turned in and both were shot by me.



The should haves, could haves, were...We should have killed at least 6. My partner missed three and I missed one.

Had a little fun though.



Boy were they heavy!
