Sure felt the action happening during your hunt, Cofisher.
Thanks for taking us along and sharing the exciting second day.
Not least, congrats on the 175 lb. venison harvest!

Had backstrap steak and eggs with my son this am. He guided my hunt and got the first rewards. Have one batch of jerky ready to share. Another in the marinade. Roasts promised to family I will be visiting in Colorado soon.
One of the best parts of hunting is sharing the great food with others. Again, thank you all for your support and encouragement. You all mean a lot to me.

My new whitetail preference is my .357 BBSC too. Also with Skinner Express sights. Mines not blooded yet though. Congrats on your doe!
Here’s a very interesting link to a study on coyotes. I don’t see the need to waste a bullet on them after reading it...

Interesting, I will not hesitate to shoot a coyote.
I may consider trapping after reading that. Regardless, any hunt becomes a coyote hunt when they are evident.

Interesting article along with your perspectives about taking out coyotes. I plan to share the article with my son-in-law, who regularly shoots coyotes on his property. And especially the closer it is to opening of deer season.
Thanks for the read.

Congrats on the nice deer.
Good for you on sharing the bounty.
I never pass on the opportunity to shoot a coyote.
Even at first light on opening day of deer season.

Well, that’s up to you. There are many different philosophies in life. That’s part of what keeps it interesting.

Guess it comes from my younger days, when my brother and I raised cattle.
You've probably never lost any livestock, to them.
They can be hard on the calves, so they were/are shot on site.
I'm no trophy hunter, and trust me we have a lot of deer.
So I take 'em when I can.
