I see a point here. Coyotes litters are controlled by there population, habitat and amount of food. A ***** has a litter of 4 pups in the spring, you blow up 6 guess how many in the next spring? 6-8.
Now dont get me wrong, I like blowing up coyotes also and I just called my buddy the other night saying I am wanting to go hunt them.
The reason I like to hunt them are, Challenging, Fast paced hunting, setup, call and blow up, next spot!
Coyotes are over abundant in Utah as well. Do an internet search on "Utah coyote bounty"
I'm thinking about picking up another varmint rig. A POF with a good tactical scope. Heavy, but rugged and reliable.
Dont worry about the rattlesnakes....... Me and my son killed about 8 last year. I dont hunt coyotes just to kill something, I like others enjoy the hunt....very crafty animals and very hard to hunt especially here in arizona.
You see, the problem is that I worry about everything. I mean, brother, I am worried about this post you made the effort it took..
Just clowning around. If you manage to preserve some snake skins from your rattlesnake kills, let a fella know, I want to make a wallet from one.
I got a nice 3.5 diamond back skin in my garage as we speak. The rattlesnake hunting is more for preventative measures. My friend and his family live out in the desert north of phoenix and we try and eradicate any snakes that might be around his house that could potentially harm him or his family. Next summer lemme know and ill keep some more skins if you want. I mostly just harvest the meat.
I live out in the sticks on some prime hunting land but I dont hunt, I"ve killed one deer in my life. dragging those stinking vermen out of the woods and gutting and cutting um up just aint my idea of fun, So what do ya do with the cyotes after ya kill em? coudnt ya fry um up and feed um to your dogs or some thing My ole man told me when i was a kid, if ya kill it eat it.
one hollow i hunted this bow season had 6 dens of coyotes, thats allot of yotes, and when you’re on the stand at dusk and they start yipping and howling it will make the hair on the back of your neck stand up. love the new rifles fast08, i have a heavy barrel Winchester mod 70 .243 i use for hunting varmints such as ground hogs and coyotes
Just saw in our local paper that a cougar has been spotted just a few miles from where I live; extremely rare to have them in this area...here kitty kitty kitty...
that is, here in Missouri there have been several sightings of Mountain Lions, I believe some have trail cams that have them caught on pictures, the conservation department has been denying that they are here till recent pictures, foot prints and one hit by a car I believe, it’s cool they are migrating back this way east from Colorado, these cats have been known to take down a human too, so it adds a little something different to your hunt around here
But, it's just a kitty! I sure hope I don't see the cougar...I love cats, but that's a little too scary while walking to my house in the woods at night :Oo:
um yeah, thats why i started carrying a sidearm with me when bow hunting, you just never know
