On the right track, however 😉 I knew Gerry well and met both he and Cain thru my mentor. Cain personally handed me the Circe call I sold on here a couple weeks ago. Blair also did a lot of writing,including a good book on turkey hunting and a couple on predator hunting. He died about 5-6 years ago. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Swivelhead Report post Posted November 18, 2020 Do not recall whether or not Sam himself wrote any articles but do remember reading about his technique. Sam advocated calling softly, expecially the first few sequences IIRC. Beyond that, don't remember much. Calling in the 50's had to be insane. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is a good read about Sam. https://vault.si.com/vault/1966/11/07/conning-and-killing-cunning-coyotes I'll add more manana.

Big or Bust Report post Posted November 19, 2020 This is a weird thread. We are guessing someone's mentor? I don't get it, but that's ok.... Congrats on the right guess? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's some history about Tony's past. Great stuff as it was probably never published in a book. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

With the alliteration in the title it made me think William Safire penned the article instead of Robert Cantwell. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
