Grainery coyote.289 viewsJohnS was calling as we looked over this field while sitting against a couple of graineries. Suddenly two coyotes came running around the edge of a bush about 200 yards to our right. JohnS filmed them as they stopped, looked us over, and then ran in as a pair. It's one of my all-time favourite scenes. His video comes out in October of 2006.

Winter face mask21 viewsI was calling on the way home from work one bitterly cold day last week. I put on my warm home-made face mask but condensation quickly fogged my glasses so I had to take it off. I had a fox into the call within two minutes but came downwind so quickly that I couldn't get off a shot--and mostly filmed the tail end as he beat it back to the bush.

Longest shot ever on a fox.331 viewsThis fox was spotted near a dried-out slough. We were far enough away that it wasn't alarmed although it did run further into the field. The wind was very gentle and straight-on from the fox. A bit on the long side, but I couldn't resist. I knocked it down at 453 yards. Darn satisfying!

First Coon327 viewsThis was one of my first hunts with my .17 HMR . I hit this coon in the back of it's butt (you can see the little blood spot on it's left cheek) as it was running away from me at about 30yds. There was enough power in the load to flip the racoon and deliver a fatal wound. I was hunting with Ken Erickson.

Marc's first varmint389 viewsI was calling with my son Marc. We were facing downwind when this coyote shot up from behind us. Really startled Marc. He stood up and shot it at around 75yards. He was using my .17HMR.

Fox from a rock pile.28 viewsIn the background and to the right you can see a rockpile. It was from here that this fox was shot after being spotted from the roadway. A successful stalk and a successful shot. Very satisfying. The third of five animals that day.

The season just ended. The season just began.10 viewsI put away the predator stuff about two weeks ago and am now out pursuing crows and beavers. This crow was busy picking at something to eat in a stubble field and waited too long to take wing.

One of each from the same stand.25 viewsOn the first stand of the morning in early March I Crit'Rcalled in a fox from the left and a coyote from the right. Bill did the shooting while I did the calling and filming.Mar 11, 2008

A fox and two coyotes46 viewsI had just sniped a fox when about 10 minutes later I spotted a coyote in the field. I snuck in an Crit'RCalled. One of these circled downwind before I shot. I turned around and this other one appeared. A good hunt.Feb 05, 2008

Almost too close53 viewsWent out today solely with the intention to try some stalking. This fellow wandered off before I could get set up but came to the Crit'R Call within a minute. Sooo close that I was afraid to move; had to wait until he'd wandered off about 100 yds before I felt comfortable moving away from the video camera and getting behind the rifle.

Called In and Put to Sleep45 viewsI sat out with two buddies one day and we called in this second fox (the first came, saw, and left before it could be cross-haired). It bounced across the field about 150 yds out before being dropped. I caught the hunt on the video camera.Jan 16, 2008

A Five Beaver Lodge172 viewsThis is the place where we got the five beavers. The pond is much smaller than you normally see, and the lodge wasn't much to brag about, but it was a 'full-house' that night!Mar 11, 2007
