    Coyote problem, or blessing?

    Probably doing more good than harm. If things change not too hard to deal with. Pour the bong water in a bowl give it a little time, then look out your back door and watch all the happy creatures dancing on the lawn.

    Is it just me?

    Being a tunnel rat wading through brambles and vines I gave up. I took a leather gun case and sewed a strap to it. Gun in case case on my back still not perfect but better than it was. Just wish I was as tall as my gun is long.

    I finally tagged my coyote #8 but...

    Weird things happen that's hunting. Ask any bird hunter most at some point have opened their game bag and had a bird fly away. Bottom line less than perfect shot. On tape and in your mind it all looked perfect but for some reason it was not. Who knows why ? Little hint if you head shoot what...

    AF 457 first hog down

    Use to hunt Hagerman for deer years ago. Simple process back then just mail in card. If you killed a doe " had to be perfect shot" they would issue you a golden ticket and you did not need to draw for next year just register and hunt. Now since the state took over too much on line confusing...

    Joe is really angry.

    Based on nothing more than personal experience and gun show only hint. Think I know who he is talking about. Out of respect for Joe I won't mention them either. Doing so would only escalate his troubles. Hope members here will do the same. JR has worked his ass off and is honest in his...

    How much to dispatch a Skunk

    Life long trapper, lot o experience shooting skunks. I have used every type and caliber of gun made on them. A head shot is as close to a guarantee it sprays as you can get. I have vaporized the entire skull with shotguns and deer rifles. All sprayed. Been my experience most importantly don't...

    Other Scope Power/Less = OK

    If I'm hunting with a airgun I prefer a fixed 4, 6 or 8 power scope. I do carry a rangefinder so no need to dial for distance. The advantages of low power at hunting distances I'm my opinion out weigh any advantages of higher magnification. Off the bench or in a controlled setting like FT higher...

    Can a PCP be more quiet than my current .22?

    In a 22 rf the barrel length has a lot to do with how quite your sub sonic ammo is. For noise suppression the longer the better. I have a non suppressed 22 rf that is no louder than my fx 500 on low power.No real advantage stealth wise one from the other. Don't run sub sonic in a semi auto you...

    Any idea what are these tracks are from?

    Classic rabbit tracks. When those tracks were made he was just sitting there with front feet together inside the back feet. Surprising to see so many don't know that. No debate possible silly easy to see.

    Other If you were to run out of air,

    I bought into the pcp hype.I will say I think it is a better all around hunting platform than a pumper or a spring. But the cost and hassle of ultra high pressure is a deal killer for this old fool.

    Whitetail Spike Taken Christmas Eve 2023 With Benjamin Bulldog M357

    Ezana4CE I would suggest when the chance arises you do both. Soak some in salt water or milk overnight in the icebox. Don't do anything to the other. What most refer to as gamey flavor is blood. Soaking helps to remove from the meat. You will clearly see that in what ever you soak the meat in...

    Calling Starlings

    Find a nesting pair in a bird house and hange a rubber snake out the hole. Every bird of all kinds will come running to that. Don't shoot em off the bird house pick off ones on the fringe. Will get more and last longer doing that. But yeah the starlings will wise up quicker than most other birds.
