I've had a few folks ask about using open reed calls and curious about the sounds from my calls. I put together a tutorial ... give me a break this is my 1st time lol.. So I went out today around 3... you know when you won't call in a coyote. Well just in case before I started talking I did a...
Thought I'd show a little open reed call I finished up this morning. The wood is a piece of Redwood Lace burl I've had on the shelf for several years. The tone board is Hippo tooth Ivory. It is very loud (blow it in the house and you will be in trouble loud! lol) It'll do from the bunny blues to...
Got out hunting with a buddy this morning and I ended up being the dog hog! 1st stand we saw a grey fox on the way in, but we didn't call anything in on our 1st stand. (Fox aren't in season now). While pulling in to where we were going to do our 2nd stand I reminded my buddy we hadn't seen any...
I use the curs to find the coyotes if they run... they've really gotten good at it! lol (pics below) I hate going where they have pyrenees. Worry they'll get into a fight with my curs too, I do the same as you did, I head out! Seems like I forget to take pics most of the time but every once...
Thanks guys! I love watching them come in to a call, it's like their head is on a string. The terrain may go up and down but their head stay's at the same level! lol
I bought a new 22-250 a few months ago and was to lazy to work up a load specifically for it. It has a tight chamber and was showing psi signs so I worked up a new load for it. I'm using 53 sierra match kings and was really trying to stay away from high psi but wanted an effecive hunting round...
This morning me and a buddy did a little calling. Had this pretty good sized bobcat come in. One of the bigger I've called in (20+ lbs I'd guess) They aren't in season and I probably wouldn't have shot it if they were. Came in to a fawn distress. Sorry, cell phone pic... it actually sat there...
I used 50 gr vmax and found that the 50 gr nosler's were more accurate in the rifle I was shooting. now I load 50 gr noslers for my gun and 50 gr vmax for my buddy, both are 22-250's. I can't tell any difference in performance as far as the coyote is concerned. Good hit DRT, hit a bone huge...
You didn't say if you were calling them?... If you are they've figured you and anyone who tries calling them out for quite a bit of time. (more lambs than you want to loose) I don't do any trapping myself but if you can find a good trapper in your area that would be your best bet. Someone may...
