A guy leaves his light on and door open and look what happens...Al Morris and his dog Ted show up to kill some coyotes. I had an absolute blast hosting Al Morris, Jeff Writer, and Matt Piippo this week. We were specifically out to work the decoy dogs on as many coyotes as possible. We saw plenty of coyotes, burned through some lead, knocked down more than we missed, and laughed so much all our guts hurt today. If any of you ever get a chance to hunt with any of these "better than good old boys", do it!
Big Al with the first coyote of the trip. The trouble with hunting with Big Al is that he really is a big guy and makes every single coyote look small, it's even worse in their summer coats. This is actually a really nice mature male. Looks scrawny next to Al.
Here's a one I shot just shortly after Al killed the one above. We are quite sure she was his partner in coyote crime. She was an adult female. We did not kill any pup on the whole trip. In fact we only saw two pups, but we never fired a shot at them...mostly because they were too far away. ![[Wink]](wink.gif)

Wow, that looks like fun!
Thanks for sharing. Is that a baseball bat, in the first photo?
Good hunting. El Bee

You haven't heard about the BogGear Tactical Coyote Bat? Sheesh man, where have you been? It's the latest rage. Actually Al's just holding his BogGear Bi-pod.

That does look like fun! Have never met Al, but have hunted with other guys that have hunted with him and I hear nothing but great things.

It won't be a Foxpro episode, as I doubt it would be worthy of that type of public broadcast. Mostly because we had way too much fun. However Jeff Writer is working on editing the video as I type this and hopefully he will release it on his YouTube account very soon.

I met Al a couple of times at a few conventions if memory still serves. He is a large man. Looks like you all had a blast, kinda a perma-grin on your faces.
