Another one down early this morning before I headed off to work. Loving the thermal scanner for shooting coyotes ... complete game changer!

RickyBobby -
Those buggers are heavy dead weight - I remember being a kid of 16 years old, and having to haul a couple 30 plus pound raccoons a couple of miles back to the house... I ended up timing their feet together and draping them over my shoulder - I was a tired and happy kid.. what a memory.
Great pic’s... those kids will remember it forever.

Thanks all! I was stoked! I have never seen something so mad before. My life was in jeopardy getting a clean shot at him at about 15 feet. Yes, it was in Alaska.
Roundoak, the bindings are from Maine Guide Snowshoes. I have no idea if they sell them by themselves or if you have to buy their shoes too. I do like the setup though. Thanks, they do sell bindings separate, got a pair on order. Well I have been using the living hell out of these shoes and have no complaints about the shoes themselves but I did wear through one of the cordura binding straps yesterday several miles from the pickup. Luckily I wasn't far from a packed snowmachine trail as I just couldn't patch the binding strap good enough with what I had on m, and my cold hands. Maine Guides do replace those straps for free, though you have to send them an order form, and of course wait for them to ship it to you. That doesn't help me much when I want to be using them right NOW. I bandaided the tightening strap for today and hopefully will have a replacement strap by the end of the week. Just something to be aware of.

T Inman - I'd get more than just 1 replacement. A spare could be useful!

It just occurred to me, elks is prominently missing from this thread! Maybe he's waiting on his 50 BMG, for squirrels!

Maine Guides will only replace the broken straps you send back to them, which would likely be more $ in shipping than to just buy cordura straps at Walmart. No biggie, but an annoyance.

Checking the cows this morning, and saw this one running across an adjacent pasture field. Sat down, barked to stop him, and killed him. The remarkable thing is that I shot through 2 five strand barbed wire fences, without hitting the wire.

What caliber/bullet combination did you use?
