Ummm... why are you waiting for this coyote?
Well it's just me in bed so a 95lb and a 65lb dog don't bother me. It's by permission only and they know if I say, 'down.' They lost their chance for the night.

Because there are now 5 of them and they are fighting my dogs for territory, they've gotten into my rabbit house and tormented my rabbits (a source of income for me), and they just started harassing the neighbors horses.

Some people just aren't too smart.

Kinda chilly this morning. 48 degrees at the moment. I'm not built for the cold any more. Was a lot easier to deal with when I had my own insulation. (aka: being 30lbs fatter) My stinkin fingers and toes are always cold. Doesn't help when I'm always packing up fruit that just came out of the cooler.

Now I'm trying to decide whether to wash the truck before work or not. I don't have to leave for another hour an a half but it's not even 9:00 yet and I use my BR600 to dry the truck off. Far easier than trying to use towels and it gets into every nook and cranny on the truck. But unfortunately it's pretty noisy. No noise ordinances here and my neighbors hate me already but I don't know if I want to irritate the ones who don't hate me yet.

Sorry to hear that Tom, seems like things always happen like that. Have you tried to see if they will still honor the warranty? They might if you complain enough since its so close to the cut off.

Tom,

LG honored mine almost a month after my year was up. Even sent them out to my house on more than one occasion to fix it. The entire "brain" was fried on mine. Good luck!

So do you have any particular ways that you coyote hunt, or just sit and wait for them in the dark till they come? Like do you use calls at all or...?
We have lots of yotes around here too, and its very rare that I can get a shot off on one. Alot of times my diesel does the hunting for me, but they can hang a right or left turn alot faster then me. I had to watch out for bales quite abit too haha.

What kind was it? Im in the market for some new tv's and have never really decided between plasma, led or lcd yet. This is one reason why! I would like the damn thing to last a little while, whatever i do get.

Haha...
I have used calls. I've used scents. I have sat in silence. I have tied up a live rabbit. I have killed a rabbit and spread its guts and blood... left the body. Nothing. It seems the only thing that consistently brings in the yotes are my dogs. And when my dogs are out I can't shoot them cuz they scrap with them.

200 yards with the 7mm mag. Woulda gone further but that is as far as the range goes.

I was a bit disappointed the pumpkin didn't explode. Ahh well. Shoulda brought the .50 cal muzzleloader.



Getting pretty good with the .44 mag, man I could qualify with that gun if I wanted to. Still having accuracy issues with the .357, can't figure it out, it's all over the place.


Sorry to hear about the TV, Tom. Hard to spend so much money on something and then have it crap out on ya after a short period of time. We have a 52"? (big) Sony Bravo LCD that we've had good luck with.

How are you feeling Sheldon?

Alicia I wonder if you can get a tape of some dogs barking, as a way to lure in the Coyotes. We had Coyotes in Grand Junction and they would prey on smaller dogs, would bark playfully to try and get the dogs to come and join them.
