A good day of calling

Recommended Posts

We went down south to visit family for a few days this past weekend. I was able to sneak away Sunday for a little coyote calling. The best part was...... My wife gave me my Christmas present early. A brand new FoxPro FX3! I went to a few of the spots I hunted as a kid, the action was awesome! We made 11 stands between 8:00am and 4:00pm. Called in 7, and killed 5. All were shotgun kills between 20 and 60 yards. We used: Remington Wingmaster HD BB Loads, Heavy Shot B Loads, Winchester #4 Buck. The #4 Buck was by far the best load we tried. I can't wait to get back down there for another trip!

Thanks a lot - now I've gotta blow a wad of cash on a fox-pro! :P

 

Seriously, great job. Looks like you guys had one heck of a day.

Well done with the scatterguns. I think callin and shooting critters with a shotgun is the most exciting way to predator hunt. I agree with you on the choice of shells. I now only shoot #4 buck in three inch with a Carlson's dead coyote choke tube.

Keep after them.

Awesome! Way to go!

 

Hey, how come we got no details on those two bull tags you all had?

Not a whole lot to tell on the bull tags. In the archery hunt they just wouldn't bugle, and were only hitting water in the dark. It was a lot of fun! I hunted hard for 9 days. Saw the bull I was after almost every day, and he would water under my treestand at 10pm some nights. I have lots of pics of him. On the rifle hunt we saw a few bulls but couldn't get it done. The only time I could get my wife in range, the wind was 40-50 miles an hour. It was brutal! We saw one really good bull opening day, but lost him in the canyons mid day. All in all it was a great time, and hope to draw again next year.

Love the NOTCAL sticker! LOL I have the same one! Good work on the dogs! Amazing how so many guys are leaving the 22-250's, and .223's at home and dusting off the shottys.
