After the poll, it appears LBL hunt dates will be February 5th, 6th, and 7th. I will get a sign up sheet thread started Sept 1st.
I believe this subject should be brought up at the LBL. There were only 17 participants in this poll and believe when all the participants are present at the next LBL we could do another vote or at least discuss this more.
I was rather closed minded in my post under the poll thread in my statements and would like to say "I will attend the LBL whenever it is held no matter the date." I do feel these type discussions should be discussed when everyone attending is present.
As stated before the LBL hunt is not about any one individual or select group but rather everyone that attends. This even includes first timers and non FnF members because all voices that attend will be heard.
If anyone has any suggestions on topics that should be brought up at the next LBL post them here in this post.
THANKS

Whos bringing the firewood?
Is Jimmy gonna call the restaurant lady?
We need a drawing committee to help run and distribute winnings! (Richard did it all last year) :rolleye: There is considerable shipping expense.
Thats all I got for now.
:biggrin:
Oh yeah! I will be there all week, so a case per day x 7 plus 4 750 ml Dewars scotch and 5 750 ml of clear Bacardi, yep! that should hold me and Rich. What yall gonna drink?
I'll probably drink lots of water and some coffee in the mornings. Gonna have to get up extra early to get after them this year since I will be giving the other coyote hunters a week head start on me. :innocentwhistle:
Still got almost 6 months to go, so I have a lot of hunting to do between now and then. I'll start thinking more on it as it draws closer.
Can't wait until then. :wink:
Me and ol belly boat butt need a couple of beds so looking for two openings..... :biggrin:

I don't know why I missed this, but I did, so here goes. I'd be more than happy to help in anyway I can, but as you dang well know. I am in charge of entertainment. I mean c'mon already. Who makes a bigger butt of themselves there than me? :laf:
:wink:
I am looking fwd to the hunt that is coming up. I am new to coyote hunting and want to learn how to hunt them the right way. I just got back from LBL a few mins ago with no luck. I am a farley successful turkey hunter and would be willing to trade a turkey hunt in LBL if some one would like to team up with me and show me the ropes. I hope that this finds all of you doing well. Thank you.

you can hunt with me if you want...my cousin will only be able to hunt one day so the rest are open
:yoyo:
Is there going to be a meet up time before the hunt at Wranglers before the hunt and if so what time and where? Thanks.
Raven42, just stop by the 1st couple cabins on the right when you come into Wranglers and introduce yourself.
Raven42 when hunting with topdawg when you set down make sure your gun is pointed toward the direction he isn't pointed and the safety is off, the animuls don't like to take the gun off safety for ya when they get there.
OOOH! Thats cold dude :biggrin: Jimmie
i will be heading up to the lbl mon or tues if i can find some one to split the cabin or hotel with me untill i think wed when my cabin buddys show up
I did a little recon in LBL today. I sat three stands with no luck, but I’m still learning. :shrug: Anyway, there seems to be a lot of good sign in areas 7, 9 and the south part of 10. :highclap: There was quite a lot of scat and a lot of tracks. I will be back in LBL tomorrow if anyone in this area would like to join me or if any one would like me to take a look at any other area. Feel free to give me a call (270) 227-2105

Just wondering if we want to set a meeting time for this like on Thur/Friday evening at like 7PM around a campfire to discuss things. Like next years dates or whatever giveaways or events one might think would be fun to have. It would be nice if we can have as many folks there as possible for ideas.
I don't think we need ot worry about the dates. We are getting to be legend in two states. Every one knows it is hte first weekend in febraury. The folks at the restaraunt were asked about iut back in hte fall and the fellows mentioned coming back for it.
What worries me is hte numbers are growing to a point that we may have to be much more organized than we have been.It's a rough guess but 70 may be possible this year. Just not sure because not all let me knwo one way or the other. Plus we have had a potload that just heard about it and are planning on showing up from the local area. I don't see the drawing as being able to handle this.
Chet Bop and I dreamed of this way back when. But the reality is a bit overwhelming tha tsuch a get together of friends could atract so many. Jimmie
Would 60-70 people be the biggest turnout to date? If so we can just see how things are gonna go this time around. Heck it might just go smoother than ever. I think Chet, Bop, & yourself,, the Founding Father of the LBL :biggrin: ,, should set the guidelines for this to follow. For example it cannot be later than the 1st FULL weekend in February. It cannot be in January ever. I can't promise I will be at every one but after having been to Redbird I think this is a great get together & would like to see it continue to be one. I also don't like big government so keeping things simple with just a few rules would be nice.
I'm thinking others have their thoughts on this too so yall might as well spill em here. :eyebrownod: :eyebrownod:

OK here's an question :rolleye:. Now that you have turned this thing into an international affair what are you going to do to control all the whacko's coming to the LBL :wo:.
Twinkies!
There are plenty of tall trees and they make new rope everyday Barry :eyebrownod: Heck I even have an old rope or two if I really don't like them :eyebrownod: And Ky Lake is thirty feet deep just off Cedar Campground :biggrin:
I am not talking about more rules. Just more to aid everyone we can in this sport. Scouting lessons and sign reading, setup ideas, We have so many totally green hunters coming this time it could benefit them greatly to take some little piece of knowledge home wiht them they can use besides how to work the latrest in calls or see the customs many of us now use. Even a drawing to put some of them with an experience hunter could be a possibility.
Our drawing of goodies is not going ot be able to keep up either. There's no way at present we can see to it that every one takes something home. We need ot find a way to expand it or drop it all together.
And the godfather to this little shindig would have to be Bopeye. It was his idea and Chet and I jumped on for the ride. There have been many others since that helped to keep this going. Weedwalker jumped in this year and helped with this at Ky hunting forum, which is where many of these newbies are coming from this year. So we have to blame this years spurt in growth on Ed. :eyebrownod: Jimmie
There are lots old homestead wells in the LBL. Add a bag of lime and .................... buh-bye
We also forgtot the old storage pits too,Semp. They are hard for me to find so I doubt anyone else would either :biggrin: Jimmie
Sorry I asked :rolleye:
I was just curious as to what caliber you all will be shooting. Also will you be carrying both rifle and and shotgun to each stand. I just go a new Rem700 .308 and really want to take something with that. I know that seems to be a little big though. Thanks and look fwd to seeing what kind of hardware you all will be packing.
QuoteI was just curious as to what caliber you all will be shooting.
40 S&W
300 Whisper
22 Mag
12Ga Rem 870
More than likely I will tote the 40S&W or 870 most of the time. I will only take 1gun in the woods at a time. It's just sometimes i change my way of setting up and I will have a gun there for it to choose from.
The 308 ill be good as long as it doesn't have like a 10x50 scope on it. low power scopes are best there for the shots aint that far in most cases.
Marlin lever 357 with 180gr'ers!! :biggrin:
QuoteMarlin lever 357 with 180gr'ers!!
Got some footage of a guy shooting one of those on stand. He said he could hit a can at 100yards consistently with his iron sights. After filming him miss a coyote at 30,60 and 80 yards I started hoping we could call a coyote in with a can strapped on it so he could hit it. :laf:
:laf: :laf: The best I can do is 1 1/2" at 100yards. It's usually about 2" but with that much lead it's gonna bleed out some time. :laf: :laf: Besides we're only gonna be shooting 50yds tops in there I think. :eyebrownod: :eyebrownod:
Thats funny Rich
I have the 44 Mag Marlin lever action and I have smoked groundhogs at 200 yards with 200 grain hollow point
The last ground hog I shot was at 80 yards and he took 2 hits in the chest and they were less then 1 inch apart He was a little hog but he was tuff :nono:
Bills Custom Calls... Bill will you be bringing any calls to sell at LBL I would like to buy one if so. :bowingsmilie:
