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.

We had some success this past weekend.  My dad, my brother, and I went out Friday night before the weather moved in.  We were able to hit 6 stands and saw eyes at three of those.  Very first stand of the season, we called in a cat.  I watched it come in from about 80 yards to about 20 were it hopped up on a back and sat down and watched us.  I made me sick  ---- since I wasn't lucky enough to get a cat tag  :'(.  Forth stand called in a coyote, but it came in to about 50 yards, and got wise, didn't get a shot.  On the next stand called in a gray but wasn't able to shot because I woud have been shooting the highway and we were only about 20 yards back in.  Saturday night went out early (even gave up the chance to watch PSU beat OSU  ;D and were able to do 10 stands.  Got a coon and gray that night.  All and all a very successful weekend...I just hope the success continues!!!

While climbing in the stand this morning, a lone coyote was making some noise a few hundred yards away.  A little later I heard a rabbit squeal.  Poor little bunny.  Then at first light the yote started to howl waking up the dogs on the farm down the road.  So, guess what I'll be doing later after sitting on stand.  Wish me luck.
