Hey, just a new guy here. I see some familiar names around this joint. Hope Y'all are having a productive year. I've knocked a few down myself.

Welcome, after looking at your album I would say you could teach us a few things about trapping, very impressive. Tell me about the pet bobcat. [Smile]

No doubt this guy knows what he's doing; he's wearing a Stormy Kromer. [Cool]

Dad brought the bobcat home from the furbuyers house. I think he came up short on money. He actually brought two of them home. One died. They hardley had their eyes open. He lived in the house and around the ranchfor a year till we tried to nueter him. My dad had done hundreds of barn cats. When that bobcat woke up he was pissed off. The next morning he went outside and wouldn't come back in. He started tom cattin around (wich is why we cut his balls out to begin with) and killed about forty of the neighbors chickens in a couple of nights. He found him in a tree early one morning and shot him. First one he'd killed with a flee collar on. [Confused]

Yeah I've taken up trapping a little more than calling lately. But my heart is always were it all started for me.

Damn good job on the videos, this aint your first rodeo is it.

I haven't watched all the videos but "Rexs revenge" was some good video work and of course I had to chuckle about a similar experience I had a couple weeks ago.....it was just cool to watch that coyote change course with every missed shot. [Smile]

That was a fun hunt JD. My uncle Rex missed a coyote at that same spot in the summer at about thirty yards. Thats why I named it "Rex's Revenge". Check out the three hundred yard head shot video. Thats the most hit on video I have.

I have hunted Oregon a little bit, south eastern. I like it. It looks like you fellas have some prime country.

Oh, I totally forgot the standard welcome!

Welcome to the New HuntmastersBBS.com, EO Caller. Glad to have you on board.

Good hunting. LB

edit: I don't know where you are, but for sure you are east of the Cascades.

I'm in the columbia basin. 150 miles east of Portland, 70 miles west of Pendelton. Thanks for the warm welcome.

I spent a Long weekend at Prineville Reservoir a couple summers ago, enjoyed the trip home through the back country eventually winding up in Altoris. (edit; apparently I can't spell the name of the town) Saw a lot of very huntable country.

Good hunting. LB

Smithers;
I used to have a red & black one back about a hundred years ago when I lived in Three Rivers. A Kromer was like a badge of honor for us kids on our first deer hunts.

EO Caller;
You ever get down around French Glenn or Fields???
 
Posted by JD (Member # 768) on January 01, 2012, 08:29 AM:
 
Man, you guys and your kromers, I must not be "in the know" on hunting fashion.

EO....that headshot video is very cool. Is it just me or is the sound of a rifle and the thud of a bullet even cooler on video, not as much fun as the real thing but it just sounds awesome. on the other hand distress sounds are awesome in person but on video they wreck my nerves. [Smile] Anyway those are some very good videos.

Thanks JD. We had a ball making them.
Kokopelli, I have been throught that country hauling cows but never to hunt. I have some really good family friends that live out there. Fields anyway. If your from around there you probly know them too.

There's some fine folks there at Fields. They make a pretty good milk shake at the cafe, too. I pulled in one time and there was a plane at the gas pump. The pilot had landed on the highway and taxied in to get gas. At one time the area was a bird hunting hot spot.

I used to run into a long-liner name of Ray Driscol south of French Glenn. I believe he's also a fur buyer. Had some great calling stands in that country, to the point that I was naming the stands.
