Much obliged, Grand Poobah.

Neighbor called me last night and said he received a Randy Anderson Lil' Dog call for Christmas and wanted to try it out. It only took about 15 minutes this morning to work.

He called and I shot. 22-250 with a "fur friendly" Nosler 55 grain solid base bullet.

First dog of the year and my first ever blonde coyote. Saw 10 this morning, my buddy killed 1, missed 2 and I killed this one. Had a run in with her last year but couldn't seal the deal, not so today.

I slacked on our thread last year.

This morning with the kiddos.

[Linked Image]

One more on the way out.

Shrap was up to 50 rabbits by 1300 today. I'm sure he'll remind us...

Calling should be good next weekend.

Happy New Year.

I hate to blow the lid off the thread this early in the year, but we just set a record for most rabbits in a single morning. It was 3 below when we left this morning to a clear sky and no wind by Big Timber.

The snow was drifted in a couple places, but we dug and chained up, nothing will stop us from hunting rabbits. Some people think they work to get elk, we work plenty hard for rabbits, and it pays off.

[Linked Image]

The storm hit a few..

[Linked Image]

By noon, my son's wife called saying the furnace wouldn't turn on and he had to call it quits at noon with over 50 rabbits in the pot. Those that were blown too badly to keep were left for the coyotes...

New Years Day the dogs needed a bit of exercise, so we took a ride in the hills hoping to see a jack to shoot.. Not long in to the trip, I shot one with the 1911 .45, since I am not as good as Shrapnel and MacKay, I hit a bit far back.. Before I could shoot again, the chase was on.. Kate caught it and brought it in, but Maggie had to try in get in on the action:

On our way home, we spotted several jack sitting in the willows across the creek.. We potted two with the .22-250 adl, but it was too far to hike over and collect them so we left them for coyote bait.. But in the last ranch we could hunt, we spotted another just right for the S & W 4" .357.. 140 gr. Rem HP over 2400 did the job..

Today, we took another little tour.. Only saw one sitting in the shad of some old trees.. Spotted him with binocs.. Too far for my revolvers, so I tried the Marlin .30-30. 170 Horn did the job.. Kate made the retrieve.. No pics til we got home..

Wyo: I love seeing the little baby dog digging all this stuff! Likewise congrats on the 1911 shooting. Wayyyyy back in the day I qualified 'Expert' with one of those....still can't tell you how, cause if we were locked up in a phone booth together I couldn't hit you with a 1911.....

RWE- that's hilarious. I quit believing in camo when I was teenager. Don't own a single piece of it. I have found is you sit still and STFU you are just as successful.

Ingwe. We have a ton of cats around here. At least where I'm
At. I call more cats than coyotes and fox. Just the kind of country it is I reckon. We are only allowed 5 a year which is 3 by gun, 2 by trap.

Had a great day Sunday. Snuck up on 5, but managed to get only one. Not sure if it's me or the gun, probably me. Ended up seeing a total of 21, some where probably the same, but I know for sure at least 11 were different. It's amazing how far away you can see'em in the snow. Makes a guy wonder how many he walks by when there is no snow.

that one is neat. red on both sides but has a dark black mane that runs from the back of the ears to the base of the tail. I may save and tan that one. We kill quite a few redish ones around here.

I saw another blonde this morning close to where I killed her last week, maybe 150 yards apart. Must be in their blood.

'flave, what flavor rifle is that? is the mag aftermarket?


They say everything happens for a reason.
For me that reason is usually because I've made some bad decisions that I need to pay for.

I did catch him in a snare. I had three other snares set up in that little area and snagged two coyotes too so maybe I saved my bacon. To bad cat prices are rough this year.

It's a Howa Mini. It comes with that mag from the factory.

MtnBoomer trimmed the factory stock for me. I can't not love that rifle. It's awesome.

ingwe, Thanks, it is the dreaded 1-14.. I have had it for 36 years.. It is about 8000 rds. old.. I never had a problem getting that 63 grain to shoot in any 1-14 twist rifle.. I have used them in the .222 through the Swift..

Good luck on the pigs.. We are going down the second week in Feb. if all works out.. I am going to take some bigger rifles, maybe my .22-250, but have a couple I want to use..

Woke up to a fresh skiff of snow Sunday. Took the oldest boy out for his first real coyote hunt. I was on a different part of the property when he shot his, so I'm a little disappointed I didn't get to share it with him.
I ended up shooting one by myself, the second one he could see me, but didn't see what I was shooting at. We both missed another one each.

I kinda went after them last year but this year I really have and have gotten lucky and got two. My normal areas that I have found cat sign in the past have no sign at all this year so I had to find some new ground and it's paying off. Just set it first part of this year and have caught a cat each week.

Was on the spotter looking for coyotes and seen a few PD's out before the blizzard hits. Ranged them from the deck, and went to work. Tried a double at 565 and only got one. The tuther one run to another mound. I waited until things lined up........grin

Wyo I've been slackin' off on cats this year, laffin'.. I've got about a dozen cat sets out so far, this time last year I had around 80 out. Plus there's way less sign. I'm going to set a few new areas in the morning, so hopefully I'll have one before long. Dad caught this one in a snare a week or so ago.. Stinks that cat prices have tanked, cause this is a dandy. Here it is put up.

A couple males.

Back in the day, some homesteader spent Oct 5, 1928 building this springbox. No house left anymore, but I've heard that once upon a time somebody had a house near this spring. I lifted the cover, reached in and cupped out enough handfuls of water to quench my thirst.

Charlie, I've been giving them to a kid who has been trying his hand at trapping and hunting them. I don't think he is doing very well catching or killing and he is happy to take them.

Normally I do when the price is worth the effort. I had a guy who bought and wanted them in the round, but I got tired of getting beat up over a few dollars and listening to him point out every flaw so I quit going to him.

Last year and this year I've been giving them all to the kid. Last year he did real well, well enough that I started to think maybe I should get a cut smile But he did all the work and is a darn good kid.

Not a bad way to end the season. Only 9 more months and I'll be after them again. Now to decide to sell local, ship to NAFA, or drive to Livingston for the Western States Sale in a couple weeks

First one night predator slam. Couldn't find a bobcat for the grand slam, but pretty happy none the less. My pup blood trailed one of the yotes through a thicket for me and did great.

Chest freezers and buyers that buy "in the round" are options.

I was hunting deer when this guy showed up.It really made a loud pop when the 165gr Nosler Ballistic Tip fired from a 30-06,mv 2940fps,made contact at 125yds.I was going to skin this guy out until I saw the massive exit wound.If you look real close near the top of the wound you can see the little green tip.

Yea.....any dog that does everything but shoot em is worth feeding eh....
I sure wish you lived closer cause your boy would have been skinning coon this afternoon....I doubt there's anyone on the planet that hates Coon's like I do yet somehow I still seem to end up with one or two every year.....oh well....at least I didn't catch a Skunk this year...

Here's a 32 pounder I caught in one of my Cat sets a few years ago.....36" from nose to base of tail...

FG, Ya'll grow'em big out there! If we lived closer he would take them! He had me pick up a fresh road kill the other day so he could add it to his fur for the year.
He's out with the dogs tonight.
The biggest one he has stretched is 28", We got one of the biggest possums I've ever seen it's 26"

Managed to kill a mangy yote this morning, didn't even walk out to it. Coyote movement really slowed down in these parts. Haven't seen anything but singles for about 2 weeks.

Lonny, I killed two and my partner one... It is a great way to spend a few days in the warm Tex. sunshine, although trip before we did find snow in some areas..

This is the third or fourth trip I have made there.. It is the Nail Ranch in Albany, Tx. Rather than hunt bait, they drive around and glass.. Lots of game there deer, turkey, quail, and of course pigs.. Not as many as there used to be, but lots.. Next trip, I am going for a nice boar.. Saw a couple this time, but my wife loves pork so we shot two eating hogs.. In Feb. it seems pretty easy to get in to hunt.. Some places I checked were booked solid for Feb. Mar. and April.. Any questions just ask..

We also lucked in to a great dinner.. The county is a dry county and Albany a rather small town.. Only one Mexican rest. there, and it doesn't agree with my wife.. Any way someone mentioned the Beehive.. It is a private club, but you can join short term for a few bucks.. They have beer and mixed drinks.. It is in an old building from Ft. Griffin that was famous during Doc. Holliday's career..
We had to sign up for a table then wait in the bar for the things to get moving.. Beer was pretty pricey, but ok..
The special was all the shrimp and salad you could eat.. Honestly they were the best i have ever eaten and lots of them.. Cost was about $25/person, but I would do it again in a heart beat.. Other fool was also available.. Next night I had a good steak, and the wife had an excellent ham dinner. Fun way to spend a few days..

Next winter I plan to be in the southwest and Texas with my travel trailer and spend a couple months.. If all goes well.

ingwe, wondered how you did.. Outstanding!!!!!! That first hog is an unusual color.. Wow what a load of grey fox, and a ringtail.. I would love to get one of those guys.. Shot a few greys when I was a kid.. Nothing like that.. Excellent.. You getting any hides tanned??

Also what bullet in the .223?? Looks like little damage to the hides..

The bullet in the .223ai was a 60 gr. Ballistic Tip, slowed down to about 2650, and hide damage on most was minimal....a bad angle would produce damage of course, but all tolled they worked great! The ringtail was a bit more loosely constructed shocked and the same load nearly took his head off ( hence the pose...)
The bluish colored gun is a .222 shooting basic 50 grain Hornady SP....it did pretty good on hides too!
No Im not getting any tanned, though I will regret one big one in particular....


The hogs got it with the AI as well, and 63 grain Sierra SMPS....
