I called behind a farm yard I hadn’t called before. At one point I had 3 big white Pyrenees and 6 coyotes milling around me chasing each other. Shot angles into the ranchers cows and the dogs only let me shoot one coyote that stand. But it was a fun circus to be a part of. Last edited by RemingtonPeters; 01/24/24.

Cow gave me the slip and the two bulls, a 7x5 and 7x none stood around gawking like they knew season was over for them. Shot a coyote as consolation prize. Look close on the skyline and the two bulls are up there.

All just luck of the draw poking around known haunts or places guys tell me they saw pigs on recently. I don’t bait them or anything, just put my nose in the wind and creep through the cover listening for them. Then try to position myself where they have to cover some open ground to get away when the shooting starts. The bunch yesterday had about a dozen in it and I was able to drive them away from the creek bottom into a quarter section of native grass with plum thickets. After the initial mele I just kept after the escapees and jumped them again.

By then it was too dark to make them out for him so he told me to shoot. We’ll get one soon. I think he gets buck fevered up worse on pigs than deer.

Been playing cat and mouse with this guy for a couple weeks and his luck ran out today. 82 yards, 150 grain ELDX ( I know, I know it’s overkill but it’s what I had in the truck ) The ELDX opened him up pretty good. Next one was out back of my house, later today, near my range. Had time to grab the 6x6.8 loaded with 70 NBT and take the shot out the back door. Told the wife she’d better hold her ears. Lol. No exit on this one.
