I see some trouble is brewing in the Foxpro contest. Seems that Little Stevie Wonder is calling in a technicality on the poses with the animals.
I have been watching in awe of Vic and Kelly and the tremendous year they have had. Kudos to both of you. And to some of the others that have racked up some numbers on there.
Its going to be interesting to see how this plays out. It will be a shame if all these kills are disqualified.
On the other hand, rules are rules in a contest. No matter how it works out, you fellers had a hell of a year and it was fun to follow along.

Sounds like somebody didn't cheat hard enough this year?

Hey i went over there and took a look around.I have been a fan of Jackson for a while now.A dude that knows where Davis Oklahoma is can't be all bad.Vic,well what can i say the man has SKIlLS!
The one thing that stands out to me about these two predator callers is how layed back they are.
They both apear to be observers not bloaters.
Perhaps thats the key ingredient of there sucess.

Texas is in the Midwest?
Indiana is in the East?
I know a fella that would've been tough in both regions this year. What's it pay?
Good work Kelly & Vic!

Thanks guys, but I am not in the same league as Vic.
I just like calling coyotes.
Catch you later
Kelly
Posted by Leonard (Member # 2) on March 30, 2009, 09:18 AM:
Maybe someone could explain the technicality?
By the way, Robb Krause is a total jerk and isn't qualified to carry those other guy's water.
Good hunting. LB
Posted by R.Shaw (Member # 73) on March 30, 2009, 09:45 AM:
I totally agree Leonard. Robb Krause reminds me that some people are just like slinkies. Neither one is worth very much, but they both bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs. LOL
Great job Kelly and Vic.
Randy

I haven’t been following it, but that sucks for Vic. Too bad that someone didn’t pick up on it early on. Either way it shakes out everyone will know who killed more animals in the end.
Good job guys.
Posted by Andy L (Member # 642) on March 30, 2009, 10:51 AM:
LB, go look at LSVs posts of his kills. After one pic, he edited to say to please disqualify that kill as he didnt pose with the Foxpro in one hand and a finger in the air with the other hand as the rules stated. Then goes on about how he wants to stay within the rules.
A lot of Vic and Kellys pics have the call and extended finger on the same hand. Some have the call laying by the animals.
Sucks.
Posted by Jrbhunter (Member # 459) on March 30, 2009, 11:17 AM:
That's what you get for hunting against posers...
(Someone had to say it)
Posted by Rich (Member # 112) on March 30, 2009, 11:24 AM:
If a guy calls in and kills X number of animals, are they less dead if he didn't pose for the photos correctly?
Posted by Jrbhunter (Member # 459) on March 30, 2009, 11:43 AM:
I think the pose is meant to "time stamp" the kills so hunters don't submit photos from years past.
What they didn't see coming was Kelly's 5 year bout with a stiff thumb. I think he's still fighting with Viagra over that deal.
Posted by Leonard (Member # 2) on March 30, 2009, 01:10 PM:
Okay, thanks. I thought that was a cigar?
Whatever? Vic's my hero. Kelly too. So's AR.
Robb, however, can S.M.D! Oh wait!
Scratch that idea.
He'd like that, but I ain't that way and never been in prison, either.
Good hunting. LB
Posted by Andy L (Member # 642) on March 31, 2009, 06:38 AM:
This is going to be interesting to see how Dillons handle this.
I have no love for Little Stevie. Never met the guy, but have heard a plenty from sources I trust. Appearantly he kills alot of coyotes.
Vic is in compettition with him. Vic had one hell of a year. (A year a guy like me could only dream about, due to location and talent combined.) It appears that the pose is against the rules, but like someone else said, thats just a timestamp to avoid multi year cheating.
What do you do if your the Dillons? Your kinda damned if you do and damned if you dont?
Posted by Leonard (Member # 2) on March 31, 2009, 09:22 AM:
I can't imagine any grown man cheating on something such as this contest? Except for Robb, of course...and Higgins taught him everything he knows. (about predator hunting) Real smart, Rich! Brilliant!
To consider Vic or Kelly as cheating on a trivial thing like this is stupidity. I don't think the Dillons are stupid, so they should ignore the alleged infraction. That's what I'd tell them, if they were to ask me. Anything else makes them look bad. Robb already looks bad.
Posted by Andy L (Member # 642) on March 31, 2009, 10:09 AM:
Just to be perfectly clear, Im in no way shape or form accusing anyone of cheating.
Just an interesting situation.
Posted by R.Shaw (Member # 73) on March 31, 2009, 10:32 AM:
It really doesn't make any difference now. In his typical chicken-shit fashion, LSW has posted a total of 98 coyotes at the possible moment.
Vic and Kelly are still the winners in my book.
Randy
Posted by Paul Melching (Member # 885) on March 31, 2009, 10:42 AM:
Im my book too! To bad Im not in charge and have no awards , I'd send LSW a gold plated turd or better a turd plated turd.
Posted by Leonard (Member # 2) on March 31, 2009, 11:22 AM:
One thing I find amusing. LSW posts no photos of skylines and very little vegetation, this year. All shots are tight and downward because he doesn't want anyone to know where he is hunting. (takes one to know one)
Good hunting. LB
Posted by Lonny (Member # 19) on March 31, 2009, 01:09 PM:
I just went and browsed through the contest for the first time... Is it just me, or do some of those single coyote pics in LSW's posts look like the same damn coyote just put in a different pose and maybe grab a different jacket for the photo? Especially towards the end of LSW's pics.
As far as not holding your fingers correctly in the pic, and LSW saying to disqualify his one coyote that isn't held right, gimme a fuckin' break that is just a chicken shit way to weasel into something if you ask me.
Posted by Leonard (Member # 2) on March 31, 2009, 03:51 PM:
Lonny, several people have suggested the same thing. Move the animals around, take the photo from the other side of the road, etc.
It just doesn't make any sense.....but Robb is a queer bird, so with him, it kinda does make sense.
Higgins asked him once; "why do you do the shit you do?" His answer was: "Because I can" If you think about it, that explains a lot.
Good hunting. LB
Posted by UTcaller (Member # 8) on March 31, 2009, 04:31 PM:
What I find interesting is that the only pose he did incorrectly was his very first picture.Then it was edited on the 27th of March just a couple days after Juicebox talked about disqualifying pictures on Predator Monster.Then amazingly everyone of his remaining pictures had the correct pose,with the date of the hunt.lol
Good Hunting Chad
Posted by Rich (Member # 112) on April 01, 2009, 06:31 PM:
Leonard,
Did Robb come down with a case of the giggles lately? Just curious.
Posted by Kelly Jackson (Member # 977) on April 06, 2009, 11:57 AM:
Well the results are posted and the FoxPro guys played it right.
Mike Dillon and company have always treated me better than they had to.
Easy to do business with folks like that.
Vic and I placed second in our divisions with no qualms on the pose.
Congrats to the winners and all that participated.
Regards
Kelly
Posted by Az-Hunter (Member # 17) on April 06, 2009, 12:09 PM:
Ditto what Kelly had to say, I never doubted any other outcome. Fine company, honest guys, solid product. Congrats Kelly, you hammered them good this year.
Posted by Leonard (Member # 2) on April 06, 2009, 12:24 PM:
Hmmm? Well, I've won a lot of contests, and I just found out they are meaningless.......and, I'm serious.
Vic's about the best predator hunter in Arizona. Especially on running shots. Awesome, to tell you the truth!
And, if wonderboy killed more animals, he still ain't shit.
Good hunting. LB
Posted by Leonard (Member # 2) on April 06, 2009, 12:27 PM:
edit: by the way, Congratulations on a fine season, Gentlemen!
Posted by Andy L (Member # 642) on April 06, 2009, 02:32 PM:
Yeah, congrats guys. That was a hell of a showing by both of you. Im glad it turned out the way it did. I was afraid dipshit was going to stir the pot and try to get you guys thrown out. That would have been a real shame.
Posted by DAA (Member # 11) on April 06, 2009, 05:49 PM:
Congrats on a helluva season Kelley and Vic! You guys are, as they say, "The Real Deal".

Posted by TRnCO (Member # 690) on April 07, 2009, 05:20 PM:
Yip, gotta agree, Congrats to the both of you. Dang strong showing any where for anyone.
With that said though, I was reading an article in an out door mag. at work, while sitting on the thrown of all places, about a guy in Canada, not the Frogman, that shot 225 coyotes last year. And here I thought anything near 100 was damn impressive. Don't remember the guys name off the top of my head, BUT 225 in one season by calling alone
. Shit!! Seems like his first name was Bret. Anyone here of such a feat!

It's been a while since I've visited that site. I did try to find the thread of forum topic, whatever. Can some some post a link or tell me the forum and topic name?
Muchas Garcias.

Danny, do a search on "FoxPro contest" and you'll find it.
