Saw lots of coyotes out there Barry and yea, mead did take a nice bull. Next year I'll be looking for antlers AND a freezer cow! -------------------- Dawgkilla Posts: 54 | From: Sterling, CO | Registered: Jan 2003  |  IP: Logged Locohead World Famous Smoke Dancer Member # 15 posted December 15, 2003 07:11 PM                    Good Job Chris!!!! P.S. It doesn't look like you quartered it; it looks like you 1/8 & 1/8 & 5/8ified it!

Yea, we ended up halving the critters and dragging the halves about 800 yards to my truck...very painful!

(no pun intended) A buddy and I packed out a 5 x 6 bull this year about 1 1/2 - 2 miles back to camp. It took two days, 3 trips of de-boned elk. We took the head and neck whole, boned quarters, back straps and left the big chunk. I lost 32 lbs. in 2 days (I think ) Dragging big chunks like you guys did is very gruelling!!! Nice to see you around Chris!!! -------------------- I love my critters and chick!!!! :) Posts: 2219 | From: CO | Registered: Jan 2003  |  IP: Logged Dawgkilla Knows what it's all about Member # 26 posted December 17, 2003 05:46 AM                   Nice to be "Back" Loco. Been working steady since March (having to commute to Denver, but oh well...) and were getting things back in order at the house from me being unemployed for those nine months. Lookin' to do a number on coyotes this winter and have access to a bunch of ranches around the Simla area, so we'll have to get together. Maybe go down to Trinidad and see Colorado Coyotes. -------------------- Dawgkilla Posts: 54 | From: Sterling, CO | Registered: Jan 2003  |  IP: Logged Locohead World Famous Smoke Dancer Member # 15 posted December 18, 2003 03:48 PM                    Congrats on your job! Hey, going all the way to Denver takes me all of 5 minutes! Yes, I'd love doing that hunt idea of yours. I've yet to meet him. I am sad to say I've met Barry a time or two though!!!

I would love to get me a badger! ya know, they got quiet a few bobcats at Pinion Canyon...and I hear they are in season... Barry, CC let me and Loco know when you want some company!

Maybe after the first of the year. Let's set something up.
