This picture pretty much sums up a perfect 1st set up of the day -
High vantage wide open expanses - when I talk about outshooting my rifles capabilities - u can see what i mean - -its like the world largest golf coarse- -only please note in the left corner-- Cactus everywhere --
From the mountain top 270 yrds along the green line--#969 adult male summer srcuff white sable white-
The 1st shot -was at 50 yrds straight down the hill - it looked like i over shot by a foot - on trajectory angle ??- - was great to have back up gunner on board to see running shot -take down -- lucky- 2nd shot-- note back up gunner missed -high as well
Headed North into a big ranch yesterday - where i have been many times in the past -- HuGe Country-- Big Open Raw Prairie - most of this country u cannot get around in during winter -if there is any snow at all--- We did 5 set ups -Temps by late afternoon reads 32C on Tacoma -- Morning is 12C --
2nd set up -- we have 3-5 coyotes barking at us by none show up--usually this means busted but --notes the river between us might be territory ? line - but also note river is shallow -- so nots sure --
we move on - 3rd set -- we hiked to to top of saddle-- and from the top we command everything in sight -- - deep coulee running north with green timber in it-- slight wind 5 MPH- east to west- -
-i send out a series of bark bark bark - at about 15 seconds into it -- out of no where - big wht/red dog jumps up on the bank in front of me -- 100 yrd out --- he had to come from a hole in the ground - I center and do not even think about it - send a 55 gr his way ---@3760fps - - not sure why but hit him a little aft of center and punched a big bag of gut out -. I double tapped him cuz of the struggle #970 adult male- messy sable messy -
4th set up -- Hot - like standing in hair dryer 15 MPH east winds-- smokey from N Washington fires Visibility down to 5 miles - No Show-
5th set up -- Tacoma stash in a drainage -- we hiked out onto section size -hay flat and set up by large bales that where staggered throughout the mile in front of us --
I send out the bark bark bark -- then after 3 mins hit the pup in distress -- --at about 6 mins I caught movement off to my south - 500 yrds out on a hard charging run -she come-- all day I tried to get the back up gun to go off -- and so i watched him pick up movement and cradle the little big gun-in the sticks ---I could hear him barking at the coyote as it ran right past him to find his wind -- the old wise gal-she was --he never fired on her - she looped wide and for the first 100 yrds ran hard but slowed to a trot - stopping at 237 yrds to second guess catching a 55 gr square through the shoulders #971 adult alpha female- white red white sable
