i had an employee who had a pet coyote, he had raised it from before its eyes were open. it was one of the most people loving critters you could imagine.
nothing came within its space in the back yard and survived. one day it actually jump 10 feet into the air and grab a bird in mid flight.
the only reason i mention this was a friend was harassing me, telling me how much smarter and better a coyote hunter he was than i. arrangements were made to spend a little time in the back yard with the coyote. the dogs owner videotaped me sitting in a bush calling, all of a sudden this coyote shows up with a rubber ducky in its mouth and keeps poking me with it trying to get me to take it and play ball with it. i promptly took the rubber ducky and pitched it away, going back to calling like nothing had happened. the coyote promptly returned and began poking me with the rubber ducky again. finally, disgusted with the whole set up i collected my things. turning to the camera and muttered something to the effect of " how is a man supposed to call a fox if these darn coyotes won't leave you alone.
i mailed a copy of the tape to my friend, i got an immediate call. something to what the f&$k was that and how did i pull that off? to this day i have never explained how and he has never told me he's a better hunter.

Now that would be priceless. LOL I always thought it would be funny to put a few coyote carcasses behind a Chinese restaurant and then call the health department. He he.
Good hunting.

Last year I took my Deer 3-D target and cut out two round pieces of reflective tape and put on his eyes.......... I placed it on the 4-wheeler trail....... well when he came around the corner after a evening hunt and had a big ole suprise.............
While bowhunting a few years back .......I was bout 500 yards from a friend....... evening hunt....... I got down a little early.... when dark came and my buddy was coming out....... when he got about 50 yards from me I started grunting , rattling kicking leaves..... Well he had dat light doing some straining to "see" WHAT TWO buck were fighting ...........
Took a leg off a deer dat I killed and made one of the biggest "fresh" scrapes you ever seen right under a friends stands........ tracks and all......... hooked a few trees too with a file too.........
Anyone want to come hunt with me ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif)

I put a few pebbles in a can, once. Rattled it, in the dark, at the back of a tent, where I knew somebody was sleeping. When I didn't get any response there, I snuck around to the front and brushed against the flap. That's all it took, he stood up in a tent that wasn't tall enough to stand in, and clawed his way through the door. He was so excited that at first I was reluctant to admit anything. But when he and others pulled their trucks into a circle looking for that snake, I had to calm things down. I thought it was funny, but for some reason, it pissed them off? Actually, it was not a very polite thing to do.
Good hunting. LB

Before we lost most of our fox to the mange 11 years ago, people used to take blown up ones or sampson fox and curl them up and leave them on a hill. If you looked at them from a 1/4 mile away it looked like a sleeping fox. So when the rest of us spot-stalkers would drive by we would think it was a sleeping fox. Then sneak out and shoot the frozen piece of junk!T.20

I was retro-fitting some new windows in a old widows house, the same time two heating and air conditioning guys were there installing a new gas heater. This sweet old lady had just took the last piece of cheese cake out of the pan, poored herself a glass of milk and had just put it on the table when the phone rang in the other room. Just then a third heating and air guy (really a kid out of high school) shows up to help out. The other two told him that he was just in time, for we had all just finished a piece of cheese cake and and a glass of milk and that his was waiting for him in the kitchen. So the guy went to work on what he thought was his peace of cake, he was already late so he didn't wast anytime polishing off the cake, and just before finishing the glass of milk that sweet old lady walks in. Well you could imagine the look on her face.

No way, I'd never do something like that. But Bruce, Jay and Vic have no morals, they do it all of the time.

Heck, if old Buck Snort does it then I'll tell you one. Three of us camped out one night up in the high country at about 7,000 feet. One of the guys went to sleep as the other guy and I drank some beer. The other guy got this idea, though it would be funny if he put some cow pies in the other guys down jacket arms. When the guy woke up in the morning and put on his jacket, we were on the ground laughing. Talking about a dirty trick, I'm bad, but not that bad lol. It was the other guys idea, Good hunting.

Me and 3 buddies went deer hunting one year. It was freezing cold, so we had a really nice fire going. One of my friends backed his truck up to the fire and a couple of us sat there to warm up and the others were huddled as close to the fire as they could get, sitting in their lawn chairs. I reached inside of my coveralls, and pulled out some old spent bullets I had from the year before. They were on one of those plastic belt holsters that come with Federal bullets. I always pick up my hulls and put them back in the carrier so as not to litter.
Well, as I'm sitting on the tailgate, I tell the other guys, "Hey yall watch this..." and made sure they all had a good look at the bullet holster, with only the tops showing of course. Anyway, I proceeded to drop the "Bullets" into the fire, and told them if they were smart they'd find some cover to keep from getting shot. They turned so white I could see them in the dark. Immediately every one of'em jumped up and headed for the hills, as fast as their scrawny legs could carry them. That was the last time I ever hunted with those guys... ![[Confused]](confused.gif)
My ribs still hurt from laughing so hard that night, and that was better than 10 yrs. ago.... LOL

I can just picture that one, stretch. (hilarious)

Hey Bucksnort,
What would you call dropping a Cherry bomb outside of a pup tent while a man and a dog slept inside?
Posted by Jay Nistetter (Member # 140) on February 09, 2004, 12:22 PM:
I take hunting too serious to pull any shennanigans on someone toting a gun.

Lordy Lordy... it is time to bring out the hip boots here Jay...
By the way; I am still blowing on that call i bought from you... Is it suppose to make some kind of noise or actually be silent like a dog whistle?? For some reason nothing to seems to be responding to the quiet tones coming out the end of the wood tube...

I was just laughing at my old hunting buddies again and strolling down memory lane....
I had forgot about this one, and it wasn't really a trick or joke pulled on anyone, but I'm sure you guys will find the humor in it nonetheless...
I was deer hunting alone a few years ago and had decided to rough it. Went in and camped for a week without going to town or back to "civilization" the whole time I was there. I arrived a couple of days before season actually opened and pitched camp. I was thouroughly enjoying the alone time, just me and nature. Or so I thought....
I was camped on the banks of the Toledo Bend lake in far east Texas. One morning at daybreak I was awakened by gunfire. It was close and who ever was shooting was shooting at me!! I grabbed my gun and literally rolled out of my tent and got out of the tent and rolled for cover. I found good cover in the form of a downed tree that I had been pulling branches from for my fire. As I lay there wide-eyed and scared shitless trying to figure out who was shooting at me and why. I scanned the horizon looking for the person(s) so I could at least shoot back. I wouldn't go out without a good fight...
When all the sudden more shots ranged out. But they weren't coming from the woods. Whoever it was had come in by water!!! The sneaky bastids, no wonder they were able to sneak up on me, but what did I do wrong, I kept thinking. And there gun sounded much larger than my own, not to mention they were shooting 2-3 times everytime they shot. So that told me they had a semi-auto or a pump.
All I had was my T/C contender in .45-70, I never imagined I would need more than one shot at a time for anything. I hurriedly jumped over the tree, landing my large ass with a big "hmmph!!" as I hit the ground, nearly knocking the wind out of me. I slowly peeked above the tree and saw the culprits who were shooting at me...
About the same time I heard some quacks coming from their duck calls and then BOOM BOOM BOOM!!! I was relieved to find it was a couple of duck hunters, and they weren't shooting at me, they were shooting at ducks, that morning was opener for ducks... That shotgun was so LOUD it could've been a bomb and I'd never known the difference. Normally I can tell the difference between shotgun blasts and rifle or handgun fire. But they obviously surprised me and had me so shook up that I couldn't distinguish a fart from a car wreck... I'm just glad I didn't shoot back... ![[Wink]](wink.gif)
I still get chills down my spine when I think of the feeling that someone was shooting at me... LMAO

Tim, absolutely HILARIOUS! Three Airdorks, one dork, one M-80 in a one man pup tent. If only I had 6 sticks of dynamite. WOW! The absolute good I could have done.

A few years ago my hunting partner was tricking me several times a year.After a while revenge was sweet.He always carried 3 shells to every stand.I loaded 3 shells without powder or primers.At just daylight he did see what had happened.I called a cat and he tried to shoot it 3 times.After being told of my dirty deed.He called me everything but a child of god.Now no more tricks we just hunt.
