Had a good time today.

[HaMeR]

Met up with VVarmtr at 5:15 this AM & headed out to Bill's (bnccont) for some huntin & shootin. We got there  & the frost reminded us what time of year it is. Bill had the door open when we got there & Welcomed us to his humble abode. The coffee was ready & so were we. Well,,, except for James,,, he needed to get his oatmeal fix 1st. It makes him shoot straight.   We set out a little while later for our spot on the highwall overlooking a winter wheat field. The view was rather nice up there this AM. After hearing some crows yap we finally got a few to come our way. James burnt the frost off his barrel & tuned up his shootin eye on those ones.   So we sat there for a little longer when I announced there was coming in from our right. As it flew past me I got off a crippling shot slowing it down just enough for James to fold it up!! "Good" crow #1. We sat there until about 9:30 shooting several more volleys & ending up with 3 good crows for the day. The birds just weren't co-operating today. They stayed a bit too high for effective hits. But the ones that did come down were definitely smarter than when they arrived. :roflmao: :roflmao:  Then we set out on a coyote callin expedition in some very promising ground. It was quite windy & the rain just got harder as we went but we persevered & plowed thru it. No coyotes called that were seen & I think on a different day with better weather we woulda had some business to take care of for sure. I think they were just holed up for the day.

At any rate it was a rather good day for me in the field with a couple good hunters & Friends. I enjoyed it & even learned a little more. I hope my company was enjoyed as much.

Thanks for the very good dinner Chris!!   It was greatly appreciated & the hot food really hit the spot on a cold, windy & rainy day!!

[Bills Custom Calls]

The ketchup was cleaned off the walls and bread crumbs off the counter.

I only treat people like I would like to be treated

If anyone would like to know we only walked about a 1/4 of a mile from the house to do the crow hunt we seen 5 deer and a groundhog while we were on stand

Ain't the Country GREAT!!!!

[HaMeR]

[Bills Custom Calls]

Sorry I didn't post last night, but those two youngsters just plum wore me out.   And it didn't help that I still wasn't hungery.   I plopped on the couch, finished what little was in the Bushmills bottle, watched The Guns of Naverone, & woke up about 12am pinned to the couch by Coyote Kate all cuddled up to me.   
Truely, I am a man blessed of God!

I had a most wonderful time.  Got in some trigger time.    In fact the lack of crows on the ground wasn't from a lack of lead in the air.    At least on my part. 

After each coyote stand we'd take a quick moment & critque it & each other & horror of horrors we decided to be honest to each other.   It was Glens idea & I may never hunt w/ him again!      j/k  It was a good. Just don't try it w/ people you don't know that well!

BTW Bill, when you come up to hunt w/ Glen or I or both does Chris want to come along to cook?   

[DirtyDog]

Hey are you boys wantin to get out the Saturday after Thanksgiving? I am headed back up to bring the kids to see their Grandparents. I have been given the OK to hunt on Saturday. What do you fellas think? 

[HaMeR]

Bill already hit us up for that Saturday. Sorry we're booked solid DirtyDog.


:roflmao: :roflmao:

Actually he already invited us along with you guys. Just thought I would mess with ya some.   If I'm not working I'll be there. I think VV might be working tho.    Well,,, as long as he's not sick from some bad turkey from 2 days before.

[Bills Custom Calls]

Chris said she don't have a chuck wagon,and we will be on our own for vittles.Chris said when we are done hunting we should give her a call and she will meet us at hog heaven since you offered to buy 

Pimp sorry you older folks can't play as hard as you used to.

[DirtyDog]
