Yes I am calling myself the Old Man now as I am no longer The Boy as Robert Ruark once said. I put out a few coyotes snares for fun over the weekend, just toff a level B road and well...

Didnt tear up much at all.

Not a great color coyote but very big 40pounder I feel, as well as the best furred I ever caught (big male)

I'm no expert, but it sure looks like a good coyote to me. Good job!


Stop giving them free benefits and they will deport themselves.

Don't be knocking the colors both of those are what I am after all the time for my hat work, and the browns always sell better than the the pales do , though they are not as fluffy as our western dogs, still great colors !!
