Good times in college with .22 rat shot and flies on the wall and if enough beer was involved (which was usually the case), regular 40 grain bullets.

Miss those days.

Got a few coyote pictures to hang, but have to wait till I get back to my computer. I have no idea how to do it from my phone.

Beautiful pales TR. Any idea what they are bringing up there this year? Just curious.

For me that reason is usually because I've made some bad decisions that I need to pay for.

Good to see the Song Dog Jr. call getting some play. That call, and some old style Magnums will be our next “Special” for ‘fire members.

Ed, is that the rifle you and Miles bedded? Belonged to the long tall fellow, damn cant think of his name. IIRC, when I left, we had found a load it seemed to like, but just didn't shoot as good as it should. Miles told me yall bedded it and it shot good.

You did good!

JC, there is a story about a 12 yr old boy, a mean rooster, a genuine $1 knife, and a killing that took place one day. But, that's for another thread.

Olympic Peninsula bobcat that came to a cougar calling stand a few days ago using a mix of Rainshadow lion vocals and prey sound. My son shot it at 35 yards. I'm not sure why bobcats come to cougar vocals but we've had at least half a dozen come in to such calls. This one approached in heavy shadowed old growth forest but went straight to a spot of bright sunlight and sat up, making a sudden display of white chest and belly. It acted like it wanted other cats to see it.

This is a typical coastal Washington State cat, orange under fur and quite a bit of orange showing, with no spots on side nor back. Tom that weighed a little over 24 lbs. on a scale after losing a lot of blood.

Nice work fellow hunters. I'd love to hunt coyotes one day.
In Europe we do not have them, but we have something similar called jackal. They, together with foxes, make huge damage to small game and on roe deers.
My shot from January 1 this year.

They are know as Golden jackal. Its simular to Africans jackal but not the same. European has shorter ears and tail.
Sometimes we call them in, sometimes we are lamping, sometimes we hunt by waiting on some convenient places.

Those jackals look pretty much interchangeable with a coyote. Pretty cool.

Always amazes me how much the Golden Jackals look like our coyotes...

I thought byk is vuk or wolf. Here is the US Atlantic states we do not have wolves. Our coyotes are said to have a little wolf blood, and are bigger than western coyotes. I looked up wolves and it said they were not protected in Serbia.
My folks always told me wolves were an issue for sheep herders in Slovakia. And naturally the folk tales and Slavic symbols of the wolf are in my mind, but I never saw one in the wild.
Same for red deer, and wild boars, we don't have them here in Pennsylvania. We do have red and grey fox. Red live near field, and grey like woods.

And this will disturb you. Here in the US it is illegal to make distilled liqueur like rakia. It is legal to make wine and beer, but federal law prohibits liqueur unless you start a business. It can be bought, but not made legally.

oh вук is vuk or wolf smile just diferent leathers, cyrillic and latin alphabet.
I know it is illegal to make distilled liqueur in the US, just like in moste of EU to. In Serbia production is allowed for personal needments.
If you wish to sale rakia than you need to star business to. But no one controls us what our needs are. Ban on making rakia will caus same thing like weapons registration in US smile It would be a general rebellion.

Yes we have wolfs in Serbia and they are legal to hunt. In part of country whet I live, which is called Vojvodina (norht of river Danube), we dont have wolfs because it is a plain part of the country.
In part of the country south of the Danube river ther is wolfs. Usually they live high in the mountains, but in the winter they go down to the countryside and cause damage to livestock.
Hunting wolf is very demanding and much harder than hunting jackals, foxes and bears.
would you like to read about our law on weapons and ammunition?

Angler-
Very interesting reading about your hunting in Serbia. I was unaware of the jackels in the the Balkan states. I currently live in Germany and I would love to learn more about your hunting and gun laws in your country.

Sounds like a near perfect outfit!

I shoot a lot of different ones. My favorite for saving fur is the .222 in the picture and plain Hornady 50 grain soft points. 3x9 Hawke scope.

Second favorite is a .223AI shooting either 55 grain gold dots or 60 gr Nosler Ballistic tips...slowed down...



This is it on another night in Texas with 3 coyotes a fox and a bobcat...scope is SIG Whiskey 3x9

I also enjoy your stories of hunting in Serbia...keep them coming!

TerryK I work in Kosice. I have seen wolves up near the High Tatras. One of the Slovak guys tells me he hunts wolves right outside of Kosice. He has shown me some pictures. I wish I could hunt while I am there. Slovakia is a beautiful country

It was all about the pairs yesterday. Had a 4th pair coming but the fickle wind saved their hides. They were really vocal until about 1:30. After that I didn't hear or see another coyote.

Very cool to hear of the wolves in Kosice. Kosice is my father's homeland. I guess there was a village there called Kelly. My uncle was named Kelly after the village. I think the village may have been erased by war.
Both of my grandparent left after being conscripted by Austrian Hungarian army. In my childhood they talked of wolves and the hard winters. The importance of carrying an axe (valashka) for protection. Naturally those vivid thoughts stay with me.
I was out today looking for coyote sign, and did not find any. The snow is pretty crusty so I think they don't leave prints. Smaller deer left mini poop on top, but there hoof did not cut the crust like the bigger deer. I was also on a bigger mission because a farmer I know had 11 cows bust through a fence. He is still missing 4, so my buddy and I scoped out that forest hoping to find the missing heifers.

191lbs was only good enough for 2nd place in the local stink dog derby. Our biggest was 46.4lbs and we lost $300 to a 47.8 lb mutt in the big dog division. Still lots of fun and respectable for late season eastern coyotes.

That little sucker is haired up! Hair is three or four inches longer than the quills.


I may have shot it in the tail once though.....it was like 40 yards away and moving out!

got on a new ranch yesterday. Rancher told me that he counted 12 while out doing choirs about a week ago. He said he might've seen one or two twice. But I didn't get more than 2 miles from his house all day and saw 11, shot at 10, and killed 9.

Lots of people will make claims of big numbers, but when you get the clicker out and really see what your tally is, it will surprise you that you don't hit as many as you shoot at. This is the best day in recent history, 408 confirmed kills and 34 that were at least 2 and sometimes up to 5 in one shot...

Used to know a guy who would sneak up to a mound and cluster bomb it with a 12 gauge once the baby gophers started playing around.


I never did care for that.


I preferred to make them orphans so they could starve to death slowly........ frown

Just in time for calving, good work. What is your single day record?
I'm guessing this was directed to me since it doesn't matter if gophers are shot just before calving season, maybe it does in MT grin My best day to date was 13 on a solo hunt. And I didn't need a clicker to keep track. whistle Primarily because I have enough fingers and toes for countin' that high.

This is something me and Shrapnel agree wholeheartedly on...you miss more than you think and kill scores are often not near as high as you think. We quit with the counting years ago because it always averaged very close to a 65% shot to kill ratio. ( My partner is better than me....) but that being said the count in Shraps pic would be damn close to a 1,000 day...

Fun times!

TR, Great day! Were any worth pealing?

the short answer is No, none worth pealing. Only two were mange free, and one of them was rubbed pretty bad and the other had most of his guard hair broke off.

That has to be Photoshopped.

How can you hit something that small with a wood stocked rifle that does not have a free-floated barrel, has a barrel band which ruins harmonics, is equipped with a scope that does not have exposed turrets, and is chambered in some obsolete caliber? It probably does not have pillars or is even glass-bedded.

A friend, that I use to hunt pigs with, called this morning with a report. Seems he and another friend have gotten a new trap for hogs. Its the Jager Pro system. They set it up at the same spot where we built, but have since moved, a pen trap last spring. In the last 10 or so days, they have caught 32 pigs/hogs.

This same friend killed 40+ (I forget the exact number) pigs/hogs in this same area, last fall.

Total for the last 6 months or so is 70+ pigs/hogs.

Said he will send some pics.... when I get them, I'll post'em.

It really doesn't cost that much to build your own drop gate system, that will work with your phone. You just have to have a good phone connection. In some remote areas the phone connection isn't very good.

The Winchester is a 32-40, the Colt is a large frame short rifle in 40-60-260. It is the same as a Winchester 40-65, either way it’s bad medicine for gophers...
