Farmer Lost 3 Baby Goats (coyote hunting)

[JamieZ]

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 my shit together and made it out to the farm a couple of days later.

Once we were setup I tried 3 different calls with no luck until I decided to try a standard Foxpro call, called Baby Goat or something like that.
Within a minute, 2 of them popped out of the woods but only my buddy could see the 2nd one. I popped the one I saw, my caller instantly switched to MFK Poundtown because I had Foxbang calibrated on my caller. I let that play for about a minute and switched back to Baby Goat and within another minute the second coyote made its appearance. We both shot and we both missed. I blame my miss on pulling the trigger a half second slower than he pulled his.

Ha I’ve even offered to pay for the ammunition… lazy bastards.
They couldn’t gut a squirrel without throwing up .
I brought three rifles popping woodchucks in the soybeans and they all got hot today… coyote bait

Came home the other day as the Adirondack tourist train was blowing it's horns about a mile or so away, and boy o boy did a pack of yotes start singing back to it and this was 4 or 5 in the afternoon. When I go out back on the tractor I carry my Ruger single six with 22 magnums.

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. They fuck us every way they can in this state.

After some 35 years of defending people against "Laws"
My Opinion should have some veracity

Hunting ..
Shut Down ?!
Are You a Fudd ?
Gov may not restrain you from Lawfull actions
Obviously.....
You do not realize that " Hunting"
Is a REGULATED Commercial ACTIVITY. ... just like ," Fishing," .....Performed by Licensure Go study Law sonny...
I have already had a go around with LCSO About the fine points they did not understand...Education can be expensive ...Especially when I sued the Domestic Partner.who does not have " Qualified Immunity"

As an esteemed lawyer, you should also know that NY is a guilty before being proven innocent state.
Unless you have the honorable Bruce_Sloane there hunting with you to explain that to the totally docile and even tempered armed ECO(s) if confronted while hunting nuisance coyote out of season at night with loaded rifles, you should make every effort to go above and beyond what's needed to curtail said officer(s) from detaining you in handcuff's for their safety while they investigate the situation to make sure your not poachers.
Maybe reminding them that you pay their salary would help educate them ?

I’ve had woodchuck cooked in dutch oven cook offs and they are actually quite tasty, being only grass fed and all. Shows how much you know, oh great wizard of knowledge.
Crow on the other hand IS gamey and greasy.
