Not to mention that its not really hunting...

[wizbang]

.....Shooting in sloughs and groves has been around for a long time but its a bad practice to do, sooner or later someone 's gonna get hurt..

i dont know where you get off by telling us how to hunt. We hunt all of our own ground. within the group got prolly 4000 acres of prime yote ground. So wwe always know that there is no one in there hunting. We shoot towards the ground with the bullets as well. Let me know if you would like to know more about it. The yotes always come out, we never walk.

This is why people look at me like I'm some sort of asshole when I say I hunt coyotes. People like you, kodiak. I can't even discuss it in the local cafe because people are so used to hearing of groups like yours. People that are this lazy do more to tarnish the sport in the public's eyes than PETA, etc. I'd be a dick if I didn't speak up and "tell you how to hunt," since you're giving the sport a bad name. So what if you're on your own ground? Once the ethical and legal lines get blurred in groups like yours, when does it stop? Do you ever shoot with a few beers in you? Ever shoot from a moving vehicle? Is this how you hunt deer too?? Its pretty hard to be sure of your target and beyond if you're cracking off 30 rds at a moving coyote with an AR-15-- even if that first shot is put into the ground. I hope you get caught-- for my three-year-old son's sake-- so the sport is still around for him. So our right to hunt isn't hurt by outliers like your group. Not sure about anyone else on this site, but that's what I think-- I'll be the first to speak up when crap like this puts my right to hunt at risk and gives hunting a bad name.

The more I sit here re-reading your post, the more pissed off I get, Kodiak. I contemplated editing for politeness. Nope. So what about how many coyotes you've killed-- where's the honor or sport in that??

This is also the biggest reason nobody can seem to call in coyotes in Minnesota IMO. They're run with trucks and their habitat is all shot out. Every time I leave a good stand without calling any in I first think of what more I need to learn and what I might have done wrong (setup, wind, etc). When about a mile down the road I start thinking about guys like you who have been training the coyotes to have a hair-trigger for trucks, etc. Again... ruining it for the real hunters who put the time in to work the yotes the ethical way. In my opinion, there isn't any sport (or honor) in just shooting sloughs. How is that beating nature at its own game?

When a AR is used you have to walk youre shots in...LOL

[Coyotehunter]

How big of a group are you running? I'm assuming most of the coyotes you're getting are running shots coming across the county roads (since you don't walk) that is a lot of tough shooting a guy could really get good at those running coyotes running with a crew like that.

Prarie Ghost, are crew usually varies from weekend to weekend. But usually is around 5-12 guys. Try and have about 5 trucks and suburbans. Send one out to the grove or slough or whatever, and shoot it out and get them to the road. We are very good shooters not many get by us. Most of us have DPMS AR-15's and a few mini -14's. And we only usually hunt once a week. usually on saturdays, usually a local bar or someplace holds hunts. let me know anything else you would like to know.

yeah really not that impressed.

I went back and re-read your other posts on this site. Your complete disregard for the laws of your state and the fact that you are on here bragging about it is at the height of ignorance. You have one post about how you are unable to call in coyotes in your area. You really don't know why?? Then you post this crap about chasing coyotes around in pickups. I hope everyone gets a chance to read this thread, and then takes steps to badger anyone who thinks this is in anyway acceptable. Not only do I not want this sort of thing on this site, I do not want the guys posting that stuff on this site either. Find some other site to post that sort of bullshit. What the predator hunting world does not need is one more moron with a AR15 and a 4 wheel drive truck calling himself a coyotehunter. You give all of us a bad name. Clean up your act or move on.

WELL PUT JAMIE

AMEN Jamie!

[kodiak_vs]

Just to denfend myself a little. I never once mentioned once in this forum of chasing yotes with trucks. So those of you who say we do read me posts is never said anything about that. [quoteThen you post this crap about chasing coyotes around in pickups.][/quote] coyotehunter, did i ever say that, NO. So i would appreciate those remarks to stop, we dont chase them with trucks.

So why do you need 5 trucks and suburbans, and why do you need to "shoot it out and get them to the road"

So you can shoot them out of the window or cut them off at the road with the truck or suburban??

[lyonch]

Just keep doing what your doing and sooner or later you will get caught Don't come back to the site either and be looking for sympothy either because your trucks and guns got taken away and now you need to buy them back on the auction!!!! One of two things will happen before you quit hunting this way: 1) Some one is going to get hurt period!! 2.) Your going to get caught and the consequences won't be pretty!! If you wanna keep posting the way you are and bragging about breaking laws then please go to another site and do it there!! Jamie runs a tight ship and i highly doubt he will put up with it if it continues to go on

The yotes always come out, we never walk.

So the coyotes just run up to the road and say shoot me! shoot Me! Or do you just hammer away at them till you hit them. Not all coyotes are willing to leave a section so how do you get those??? If you never walk!

I am down with wizbang,

Truth is this: Yeah, ya do chase them with trucks. You didnt have to come out and say it directly but most all of the hardcore MN coyote hunter have ran into you and your ilk before. Pedal to the medal to cut him off before he gets away right?. Maybe you have a real story to tell if you actually run him over with the truck huh? I have driven down tons of country roads and seen the hasty turn arounds and the tire roosts. You may not live anywhere near me but you fit the profile to a TEE. "Hey Larry, let one fly down into that slough, maybe we can get one going". Sound familiar? Bet it does. That is SORRY!!!!!

This does not apply to ND boys that I know of but here in MN it goes something like this: You sit in your running pick up with the heater running, gun uncased and loaded(illegal), drinking coffee waiting to hear the radio crackle and give you a direction he was spotted going, then then you race over to that side of the section and maybe get some "hammering" in. Out the window off or accross the road(illegal), on to posted land(illegal)"cause the owner aint home anyway".

There is a crew around here that runs them like that with 5 or 6 trucks and radios and all of them carry ARs and Mini 14s(Where in MN you from, Kodiak-vs, maybe its you) and they absolutly ruin it for the callers. I do know of one crew around here that I do have to give credit to tho. They run about 5 trucks but they use them to contain the coyote and then send in ONE shooter wearing orange to kill the dog. They still ruin alot of land by running the coyotes right out of the county but I see them all the time while out calling and have never seen a rifle pointed out the window of one of their trucks as the leader of that crew is not bashful about chewing someones ass for being unsafe.

Only thing worse is irresponsible dog hunters. I respect everyones different ways to hunt but until you can teach a dog to read a posted sign, it is the method of folks to are looking to get around no tresspassing signs. Sorry Kodiak-vs but if you get disrepected here for your hunting antics, you got it coming pal.
