Fox at dusk; 449 yds261 viewsI first spotted this lassie at 329 yds while patrolling for foxes. By the time I'd gotten my camera set up and the rifle ready, she'd moved off to 449 where she stopped to have a pee. Wind was, fortunately, very calm but it was cold enough that I froze a small part of my nose that day.

300 yard coyote473 viewsI let the first of this pair pass by expecting that my partner would be able to shoot it while I focussed on the second. But he couldn't see it from where he was sitting. After I shot the second coyote, I ran to the top of a small hill and shot the first coyote at 300 yards as it was running away.

Almost too close272 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.

One of each from the same stand.273 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.

Evening fox.491 viewsWhen this fox came in to the call, the colour of the fur was so close to the colour of the field stubble that it was almost invisible. It took me quite a few seconds to see it after JohnS spotted it. It was our last stand of the day and a great way to end a hunt.

The season just ended. The season just began.272 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.

246 viewsSome areas where I hunt are very flat for miles and a fox/coyote can easily spot you from a long ways away. I made this deer shield out of cardboard to help me get closer. It worked well. Ken

Two Crows, Five Easy Pieces174 viewsThis morning I shot two crows with the .204 Ruger. The first at 111 yards easily separated into two pieces (wing and body/wing). The second at 174 yards separated into three pieces (head, wing, body/wing). These are the first of the 2009 season for me. (KenC, eat your heart out...)Apr 06, 2009

A shot across the lake.197 viewsFrom the shooting bench I had a good shot at an 1100 yd coyote standing across the lake--and I almost made it! Boy, would making that shot have given me bragging rights...KenMar 31, 2009

Stalked fox.188 viewsI spotted this fox in an almost ideal location; there was low land to sneak through and a bit of brush at the fence line where I shot from. I was able to get to within 161 yards--and I got the stalk and shot on video (for my next DVD)!Mar 21, 2009

Ground blind236 viewsI put together this ground blind to help me remain hidden longer as I try to film and shoot. At this spot I had 3 coyotes respond but they were downwind and picked up my scent at about 700 yds.Feb 05, 2009

15 second coyote192 viewsI had only just got the electronic call going and hadn't even time to put on my mitts before this guy's buddy showed up...and left. A few seconds later this one showed up and I was able to get the kill on film. Minutes later a third was spotted out in the field but it never came close enough.Dec 13, 2008

First of season238 viewsThis was the second of two separate coyotes that responded; the first came and left without giving me time to get the camera on it before leaving so I let it pass. This one paused at about 150 yards after crossing the field behind so I had enough time to track its approach. The ice is broken!Nov 19, 2008
