2021 Coyote killing counter

[yetti462]

I've not had any luck, in last few outings. Did see one Friday night while walking in, warm season grass prevented shooting.

Had several howl back but no commitments to the open . keep telling myself the best is yet to come.

 

[Rookie]

Same here. I've heard a bunch in the last six times, but that's it.

 

[El Conquistador]

Same here, I am still trying to get on the board.

Heck, I'm not even hearing very many howls. I'm thinking the weather is at least partially to blame. Seems like we've been getting a wild swing about every other day, lots of rain and wind. Even the backyard deer aren't doing much.

Things really are slow this year! Hubby's been so busy building our daughter's house that he hasn't been out much but got a nice female night before last so I guess that makes 11!

He still hasn't ordered his thermal because all of the money is going into this house project, but it is still on the list. I might just have to do it for his birthday.

Putting the total here where it is easier to track. +1 = 11

 

[Rookie]

+1

FINALLY!

12

 

[johntheplinker]

I was beginning to think all the yotes done left the state.

 

[Rookie]

Saw five. Only had a shot at one. 250 yards.

It might start getting better, super bowl time always seems to be a good time for us, been letting the dog out at night and his nose is strait up sniffing into wind and hearing coyotes in the area. Don’t know if the females are in heat or not? I had a pack of coyotes try to lure my old dog out of the yard using a young coyote as bait to get him to chase it out in the field where it was dark and the rest we’re lying waiting. I spoiled that plan for them.

Was taking a short cut thru some farm lanes today No vehicles have been down em since Tuesdays snow. Found a young live one in a conifer. Called the CO, who investigated.He said nobody been around for days let alone in the last 24 hours. He put it down,and went to talk to land owner.

 

[jagee]

So, 13?

 

[mom45]

We have at least two others on the cameras. One has something weird going on with its tail so it is easy to tell from the others.

I think you may be right, should be getting close to the mating season.

Went tonight, and had a great time. Called 3 in, and watched them come to 150 yds through the thermal scanner. The second we flipped the red light on they were gone like the wind. My thermal scope cant get here fast enough. We spent another 20 minutes sitting talking in normal voices, and a pack blew up about 50 yards away, they never came in to our calls that we knew of.

All and all, it was a win.

 

[Indyplinkster]

Snow, full moon and a good set of calls. If you have money, thermal!

Dang, that must have been crazy! At least you're seeing them. I haven't heard any, much less seen one, the last 3 weeks.

It was insane. We only went for an hour, but that could have easily turned into an all night ordeal. I haven't called at night since I was a kid, and we scanned with a spotlight all night while calling (not red light) and never saw a coyote. The only reason we saw any was my handheld LSXR, but I can tell once I get my riflescope, that will be the weak point in my setup.

I really don't know what its called, but the FLIR had to much shine. The whole image would go white if I looked at the skyline. I don't know if that is an adjustment issue, or a product issue, but I'm looking now.

When did you order?

I'd waited a while. They were filling orders as stock came in.

Gotya. I about 2 weeks, which is not bad at all. I talked to the dealer today and he said they were trying to ship today, but it would probably ship monday

 

[yetti462]

I ordered a super hogster on the 15th. I got it on the 28th. Super fast from other reports I've been hearing.

This was from feral texas outdoors.
