    big coyotes

    47.3# in central PA was my biggest. Friend just shot 49.6# this past weekend. I'd say we avg 37-40# dogs.

    What’s everyone’s go to shooting rest?

    I've been running an Innorel rt90c with the RRS Anvil but recently switched to the RRS leveling base. Not sure if you've tried a leveling base but definitely better for panning or follow up shots. Always felt the Anvil locked down good, was quick to move but if you open the throw lever 1/4" too...

    What’s everyone’s go to shooting rest?

    Day hunting I use a swagger bipod but most of my hunting is done at night. Innorel RT90C tripod with RRS Anvil 30 head but switching to the RRS TA-2U leveling base once it delivers tomorrow.

    Lithium Ion for a FoxPro?

    Looks like the Foxpro site shows the same lithium battery for a lot of their models. I run the same lithium battery I had in my shockwave in my x24, banshee being the same battery. There is no % indicator, just a standard 120vac wall charger with a red/green light. I do charge my call after...

    Best Commuter Car

    I drive a 2003 tdi 5 speed to work. The worst tank has been 48mpg since buying in 2014, normally avg 54-55. Sad part is the body will probably rust out before the motor ever quits. If I were too replace it I would probably look for a Civic.

    Turkey hunting with a 3 year old

    Great story! My 5yr old has gone daytime predator hunting with me a few times and keeps bugging to go out at night. I really need to buy another thermal scanner to keep him interested for night time hunting. Looking forward to when both boys (3&5) start hunting with me.

    What ATV should I buy?

    I'll agree that Suzuki KQs have been great. My Father in law & Brother in law have 2015 & 2016 KQ 750s, both with over 7k miles and no issues other than the occasional wear and tear items. Wifes cousin has a 2016 KQ 750 as well with no issues. I bought a 2019 KQ750 and only have 1400 miles on it...

    Tough coyote or bad ammo?

    I am amazed sometimes how tough coyotes are. I use to shoot a bolt 6cm and had good luck with dropping them with one shot where they stood but switched to 22 nosler in AR for follow up/doubles. I had issues with 52gr and runners but switched to 55 nbt's with much better results. Of the 17 shot...

    How much hunting does your wife let you get by with?

    I have two boys (3 & 5) and I wouldn't say having kids or my wife have limited the amount of time I hunt but I have changed what I hunt for due to my passion and ease on the family life. I was in the Navy from 2013-2019 and didn't have much time to hunt/fish but when I came home I still coyote...

    What caliber do you like for predator/ varmint hunting?

    What gr are you shooting? Friend is running 6arc. I like a 6mm but also like a flat round for night hunting.

    What caliber do you like for predator/ varmint hunting?

    About 6 months ago moved from a 6cm bolt to 22nosler AR which I've been happy with for follow up shots. Debating building a 22cm in 1:9 to shoot 60gr nbts and use for coyotes/ground hogs.

    AR vs Bolt Action for Coyotes?

    My AR is lighter than my bolt gun. I think the accuracy is true in some part. I've had far more sub 1/2 moa bolt guns than sub moa ARs. Maybe its more of a mind set change in I have 9 more follow up rounds with the AR vs having to rack another round with a bolt gun.

    Tripod for thermal

    I run an Innorel rt90c which I am extremely happy with but the best money spent was on the RRS anvil 30. Almost bought the leveling head but at the time they were only 20* I believe, now 30* is available. Either way, the RRS equipment is top notch and for hunting I think a cheaper tripod would...

    Thermal hunters, scanner or weapon mounted first?

    I think if I had to scan with a gun mounted optic only I would just wifi the scope image to my phone for viewing. This would limit movement/noise by just having to swing the gun side to side as opposed to your entire body.

    AR vs Bolt Action for Coyotes?

    I was always a bolt guy due to the accuracy, and still prefer a bolt for daytime shooting. I ran 6mm cm mainly but recently switched to an AR in 22nosler this past summer for night hunting. Shooting 52gr eldm's at 3650fps and I will say I will not go back to a bolt gun in the dark. Running...

    AGM Taipan vs. other AGM models

    Highly recommend the AGM Fuzion LRF tm35-640. I was debating upgrading my Super Hogster next summer to a 640 w/LRF but having the LRF in the scanner is sufficient. For the ~$2900 price of the Fuzion its well worth it and above others in its price range. Maybe if I wasn't using a flat shooting...

    Thermal hunters, scanner or weapon mounted first?

    I bought both at the same time but agree with the posts above, if I were to buy just one it would be a good scanner. 95% of time is using the scanner and I have hunted with a few who use a red light still to shoot. We would just use my scanner until they got well within shooting range and when...

    AGM Taipan vs. other AGM models

    I have no experience with the micro or taipan -256 but I currently have a Taipan 19-384. Really will depend how far you want to identify animals. With the 19-384 I feel plenty comfortable identifying 3-400 yards sometimes based off body language. Can be difficult to distinguish between a...
