Trust Lowell to take this already diverse thread into the truely Bizarre! Coyotes here are a major problem. Our annual 3 day Coyote hunt, held in January, reported in the papers, soon to be written up in various predator magazines, reported over 800 sighted, and 293 killed. IN ONE COUNTY! I killed 3 with the 10 bore, 7 with a .257 Roberts....That ought to really arouse some tears and gnashing of teeth for Mr. Glenthorne...Pheasants season is over, Geese Tommorrow!
