Oh yeah, my neighbor told me the best way to hunt coyotes is to grab a roadkill deer and put it as far away from cover as you feel comfortable shooting. Our cover would be our barn, the back window faces our back field. He said then put out a red spotlight and play some cards while you wait and watch. Haven't done it yet, but I am tempted to this year.

Down here some hunt pigs at night with a flouresant light. They say the glowing light doesn't bother them. Never tried it...I get sleepy!

Good shootin' Steph, 150 yrd's out with a 30-06 you got my respect. Thought I would include a pic of a Coyote I took from my house.

DreaminGreen,
It is a shame that coyotes are such bad predetors becuase looking at the pic of the one by your house my first thought as how pretty his/her coat was. Almost reminded me of a red fox. It realy was a pretty coyote. personally i could not stand the howls, it would make my skin crawl.

Rox, if you didn't already know it, coyotes yapping and howling is entirely different from wolves' howling. I kind of enjoyed listening to them when we lived 60 miles south of Dallas.

Good job for Steph!!!!

I can only shoot the Coyote's when the boss is gone. So somehow hte Coyote's have learned this and only come around when Debbie is home.

Eddie, I do not know if your 2008 list is supposed to be in any particular order. But I would move the #10 to the #1 spot. That other stuff can always wait. I remember going fishing only a few times with my dad but I remeber those days well. I also remember deer hunting many times with my dad, even if we were hundreds of yards or a mile apart. We were still doing something together.
