I was out on saturday night.  and hunted from around 6 to midnight and not one response.  sometimes ya have nights like that.  on the flip side I have a farm of a buddys from work that hears coyotes every night so I will be hitting that this week sometime.

Haven't been out for anything other then deer.  But may be heading to NY state for yotes in the near future.  Wifes cousin has a pack on his property that keep his father stuck in a tree.  Took 4 atvs and a truck to chase them off.  It wouldn't be such a big deal, but his father is handicap and couldn't fend them off with his bow.

Dale, did not shoot the coon because it was Sunday.  Besides, I'm not in a hurry for coon yet?  I'm going to be brushin up my coon skills with the coon master (Hern) next Friday.
