Havent been out much but this happened last night which was worse than the hunt previous to this one. At least I hit the fucker on the previous hunt but it was still a runner. That first one I shot at ran to the right. When the shooting was all done and I was out of ammo,,, that fucker came...
If you havent already,,,, give it a try tonight and let us know if you are happy with your purchase.
Plus,,, did it come with a mount so you can attach it to your scope?
Hodgons just had it and Powder Valley just had it.
Hodgons wanted a arm and a leg for Hazmat fees.
Prices were way to high to get me to bite but others did and its sold out.
Its been out of stock everywhere since the beginning of covid
The issue you tend to have with night vision scopes is that you kinda need a thermal mono to spot your prey.
Yeah you could scan with your scope but it wont be ideal and you would miss a bunch of stuff that was coming in,,, the same would go with having a night vision mono.
You just dont miss...
Guess the coyotes still wrinkle my feathers. Anxiety got the best of me.
Started out with a pair howl and they lit up real close to me, real close. From my left and from my right.
So that started my blood pumping because I knew I could get them to come in.
2nd call I played a rabbit distress...
Its a good time with friends. Just laying around, shooting the shit till you see something way off in the distance. We have a guided wood duck hunt setup in October in the Montezuma National Wildlife Refuge. It was cheap, cost us 250 each. It kills my time while I wait for yote hunting to go...
All of us have layout blinds, one is in the picture. We have more than enough decoys but you dont use many during non-migration. More cut fields would help us. Only one farmer has sweet corn that he harvested, every other field, is field corn and its not cut.
For some reason Ive been terrible about taking pics this year.
Anyways,thought I would at least post one.
We have made only like 3 hunts. Scored 0, 5 and 13.
The day we got zero was opening day and we were in the flight path but other hunters about 300 yds away were 1st in line. They scored...
One thing you should be aware of. Your starting magnification will always be your best clarity when viewing. As soon as you up the magnification, which is done digitally, you cut your sensor in half. So your 384 sensor would now have the clarity of a 192 by just adjusting the magnification.
This...
No you cant rifle mount the mono you have and you dont want to be scanning with anything that you have to quickly mount to your gun. Plus you dont want to scan with a scope that is mounted to your gun,,,, huge pain in the ass
My true feelings? lol
I believe you wasted your money on that mono. The sensor resolution is to low, way to low for any kind of identification.
Im going to say max 50yds you might know its a dog and not a deer and 50yds might be pushing it.
Please dont be upset with what Im saying because Ive...
What are you using for a scope?
Is your Taipan a 384?
Great sounds are made by MFK. A great tutorial on how to use them is by watching Torry Cook the owner, when he is being interviewed on the foxpro podcast.
Another thing that will help you,,, use bait piles. Dead anything, cows, pigs...
I prefer to obey the law,,,, it keeps all the Karen's of the world happy. Obeying the law also keeps us from getting hunting shut down.
Remember, this is NY,,,,, where everything and anything is made into some form of regulation or law to keep those of us who enjoy certain things, from doing so...

Buddy of mine called me a week or so ago and asked me if I was legally able to go help protect a friends farm.
I said yes as long as he gives me written permission, with a reason why I was hunting out of season.
He told me the coyotes have killed 3 of his baby goats in the last 2 weeks.
I got...
Built a carbon fiber barreled 204 for yote hunting, with a low mass bolt carrier. It seemed light as hell,,,, till I stuck the Iray Bolt thermal scope on it. Now it feels like I didn't go far enough with the weight reduction. Still somewhat satisfied with it though. Im really satisfied that I...
Ive used the one he linked to for 30 years,,, cant say I ever had a problem and it always works well.
I only load for hunting purposes,,, I'm not a range guy
Im having coyote hunting withdrawals already but lucky for me,,, I just got my full mount back. It was quite expensive at $1500 but I would have another one made. The guy did an excellent job, dont ya think?
:tearsofjoy::tearsofjoy::tearsofjoy::tearsofjoy:
Sorry bud lol. I wasn't even thinking about your injury till I saw the reactions to my post.
I just think you did a nice job. Didn't even think about your thumb when I stated thumbs up.
Went by last night around 930pm. Decided not to slow down to look because of the Sheriff that was keeping watch, sitting in his SUV in the parking lot. Didnt want him to be suspicious and have him thinking we were looking for Christmas presents.
Buddy just text me and told me the Firing Pin is burning to the ground. I could take 5 mins and go see how bad it is but I will drive by it tonight on the way to yote hunt,,, I will check it out then.
Den Raid, Newborn Pups, Broke Pecker, Birthday Pups 1 and 2,,,, those are denning sounds.
If you are speaking of the Lil B sounds that you turned a coyote on a dime, those are breeding calls. Lil B Hott, Lil B Sexy, Lil B lonely and I cant remember the fourth one of the top of my head. The Lil...
Last weekend Keith wasn't with Machine Gun Adam and I. We used denning calls with no luck.
This weekend Keith was with us and I asked him what he planned on using for calls and he said Denning sounds. I said I think we should go back to breeding sounds because last weekend Adam and I used...
Did a bunch of sets last night and saw pretty much nothing.
One set that we walked back to, buddie thought there was a deer on the side of the trail but it was coyote. It ran off, it must of smelled us or heard us
Yeah, I dont think I hunt 10 hours either. Our longest nights go from 730pm till 230am.
The 18650 battery in my Fusion lasts the whole night but is pretty close to dead.
The Super Hogster with the double 16650's last the entire night and then some. Still have like half to 3/4 battery life.
I...
I saw a review on the Super Yoter LRF by Korey Kirschman and he said he was a tad annoyed because of the amount of times he had to adjust the focus. Between that and the fact it uses double A batteries and only gets indoor burn of 4hrs and only 3hrs of burn using the LRF,,, I said screw that...
Sooner or later when the whole crew is not going out, I will have you back down.
I just scored 2 more properties and Keith just scored 2 more.
Right now we have 3 hunters going out and to me, anything over 2 is one to many.
Just so you and Shoots100 know,,,, ummmm,,, I said fuck the new couches...
