Very tough to find them on pubic, but like previously stated several landowners will let you you shoot does. There are even some listed on the Wyoming game and fish public access page.
It's kind of scary, seems like every time we are discussing something we may want to purchase at my house we start seeing internet ads for it when we go on the web.
I donate every time I apply for a license. On the years that I don't apply I don't donate just because I don't remember to do it. I have hunted lots of walk in areas and am very appreciative for the opportunity.
Pretty much the way I hunt everything now days. I scout the other hunters, see where I would go to get away from them if I were a deer or an elk and that's where I hunt. Works well for deer, worked the one time we did it for elk.
I lost my father when I was 17 years old. He was and still is my hero. Father's day has always been bitter sweet for me. It has been 30 years but I still think of him daily. He was an ex marine who taught all of us to shoot and hunt and how to be men. I am the youngest of 15 kids 12 boys and...
When the coyote came back to life in the back of the pickup truck it latched onto my brothers knee cap. Ruined a perfectly good pair of waders, and he broke a paddle trying to finish it off. We had many crazy stories like that which is why I now use a .22!
I've been using a stainless steal Ruger 10/22 for trapping for about 20 years. As you said I am amazed at it's reliability. During trapping season I do not take as good of care for it as I should but I have NEVER had it jam or misfire, it has never let me down. I shoot cheap ammo through it...
Thank for the information! I have not handled one of those yet. I was thinking it was bigger, I will have to check that one out too. This is why I posed the question, there are so many out there and where I live I cannot go to a single store and check them all out at one time.
I really...
When I started trapping ~10 years old we would never shoot an animal in a trap because we did not want to put a hole in it. So I would typically take the barrel off of my single shot 20 ga that I carried and use it as a club. Some coons can take quite a beating, had and interesting event with...
Thanks everyone, I am hoping to get one that will fit in a pocket. I do not want a holster as when checking traps I am in and out of the water and would like to keep it as dry as possible.
I am looking at buying a .22 semi auto pistol. I want something light that I can put in a jacket pocket when checking traps mainly for dispatching coyotes. I have been thinking about the Walther P22 and Glock 44. I know Taurus also makes one. Anyone with experience with any of these I would...
