If you do not know the difference between "quite" and "quiet" please get off of the world
wide web.
Thank you,

That's quiet a statement there young man....
Loose and lose always get me.... I hate to loose a Lapua case in the snow. The scope mounts worked lose and caused me to miss.
"Prolly" is another strange one I've seen. I'll prolly try a different bullet before I load up anymore ammo.
Your welcome,
Internet Police Second in Command.

BTW... It's silly, but "set" bothers me. It's a STAND gawdamit. STAND. Trappers make "sets". We callers make STANDS.
Got it?!
Usually someone from back east making a couple sets for dogs. Then they come back all excited because they got "responses" from more than one "pack". And want to know the best "sequences" to get them to come in. And how best to make "sets" on the lousy little postage stamp of ground they are calling every fucking night of the week and wondering why they are getting lots of "responses" but nothing ever comes in.

Oh, and as long as we got away from misapplication of similar sounding words; the worst is 'yote and "song dog" , etc., instead of "coyote". However, in our group, (and don't forget, we invented this shit) we always used the words, "Cat" and "Dog". Some people think that they are purists, and they think the use of the word "dog" could be confused with feral dogs, but WE never had that problem. And we always knew the difference. So, while I am a stickler on "coyote" instead of colorful names, the use of the word "dog" has always been acceptable among people in the know.
Good hunting. El Bee

Suppose I shouldn't give a shit how anyone uses or misuses words, but I do notice it right off in conversations or reading.
Then/than, is one I see often, as well the usual their/they're, there is a boatload, many of which can't be noticed unless in written form.
Mispronunciation of names/places/things always interest me in how they morph from correct to accepted? How many times do you hear the brand name of the rifle Sako, pronounced "say-co" instead of the correct "Sock-o", or scope company Leupold, pronounced "Leo-pold". Silly I know, but when your talking with gun guys, you'd think they would know the correct name of things "gunny"?
Language is a funny thing for sure.

I basically stopped reading PM altogether, after being banned. As a consequence (read: BONUS), I haven't read much in the way of that nonsense...
But, I have seen it in the flesh! Case in point, a few years back...
I came across a fella running hounds on the same land I have permission to call. His crew had their dogs behind one when I drove past. As the bullshit session progressed, he allowed that he'd been trying to call coyotes for the last 10 years, but had never had any success. Only thing he ever called were red & grey fox...
So, I dropped my tailgate and showed him a pretty female I just called in & shot, that morning. He asked "how'd ya get that???" Told him I called it in & shot it, right before sunrise. Even though he was looking right at that dead coyote, he had a hard time wrapping his head around the idea that you could kill a coyote here without a pack a dogs, and bunch a gunners...
P.S....told him the coyote came in to "Lightning Jack"... ![[Wink]](wink.gif)

Fred, I had an experience along those lines..back in the late 90's there was a guy that came into the store where I worked, a few times a week. One day he asked what my weekend was like and I mentioned I was out calling coyotes all weekend..he laughed and said NO WAY. He did not believe calling worked, and he had a "crew" that hunted coyotes by running them down in pickups and then shooting them. This guy was a cocky blowhard, and he had like 5 or 6 buddies and they all had Ford Ranger 4x4's (have no idea why). I was so intrigued by this that I rode along with him one morning and I swear to GOD that as the stupidest thing I ever saw. Tearing around the countryside, trespassing, mowing over shit...just to get close to a coyote.
Later on he got into calling, asked me to go a few times but fuck that.
It was quiet the deal.
See what I did there?

I've never heard deer hunters referring to a deer "set" it is always stand. Likewise I've never heard a turkey hunter refer to making a "set" or "stand" for turkeys.
It's funny what is acceptable and what is not. One makes a stand for coyotes with the set up being very important. Not the "stand" up. Kind of funny when you think about it.

Hunting season better get here quick!
You boys are running out of things to bitch about.
Yes Mary Alice I did kill 2 dogs and 1 cat on my last stand but I was sitting down the hole time ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif)
Now Fred you no good and well that if Kelly told you to use lighting jack you would have wore that sucker out. Hell he got me to using Baa Bee cottontail for cats along time ago. Still use it today.
Oh I can't spell a lick so be a little easy on a old Okie.

That's a good one, Dan!
Used to drive me nuts. Still does. Not nearly as sophisticated, (and knowledgeable) as Victor and his SAKO's. Me? I've never owned one.
Good hunting. El Bee
Posted by Locohead (Member # 15) on September 15, 2018, 10:07 PM:
I don't care what Vic says, (well I really do a lot, but not about this) In America, it's pronounced, Sayco!!🙂
Posted by Kokopelli (Member # 633) on September 16, 2018, 05:51 AM:
I always thought that down on the boarder it was pronounced 'See-Co'.
Posted by Leonard (Member # 2) on September 16, 2018, 07:38 AM:
Nothing flushes him out anymore!
Posted by DanS (Member # 316) on September 16, 2018, 01:22 PM:
I thought SAKO was an acronym. If so, how can it be said wrong? I pronounce it Say-ko also, but then I don't have a Finish (Finland?) accent to pronounce it as sock-o.
Posted by Az-Hunter (Member # 17) on September 16, 2018, 05:38 PM:
So; when your down at your local meskin eatery, can I assume you all ask for a half dozen "tay-cos"?
Posted by Az-Hunter (Member # 17) on September 16, 2018, 06:15 PM:
Was "unplugged" for last three weeks Leonard, had my son out to my tiny house in Az, for two weeks of putting a dent in the local dove population.
We knocked the hell out of them, son kept tally of rounds fired, over 800 shots fired in anger, had an amazing time and hunt.....big fun. If I could shoot doves as many days as I can shoot coyotes, not sure which would be my favorite? For simply pleasure, test of shotgun skills and the social aspect, pretty tough not to like dove hunting.
Posted by Leonard (Member # 2) on September 17, 2018, 10:43 AM:
You can't decide because, 800 rounds fired, at doves or coyotes per day, is gull durned exciting!
Posted by Az-Hunter (Member # 17) on September 17, 2018, 12:22 PM:
It was exciting Leonard, I remembered you always enjoyed dove shooting too, always big fun! Plus, I love eating them, my son does too, so we are stock piled with enough to have many dove breakfasts, fried dove, gravy and biscuits, good stuff.
That dog of mine you liked to make fun of, the Australian cattle dog that likes coyote hunting. This is his second year hunting birds with me, and the sonofabitch is a bonified retriever, found most every bird lost in tall grass or mesquite thickets, and swam the stock tanks half a dozen times to retrieve birds.
Was a good Sept in southern Arizona, not as many birds as in the past, but still heads above most other locals and usual populations. Mornings were good, but the evening hunts were action packed the last 45 minutes of the day.
Posted by Leonard (Member # 2) on September 17, 2018, 01:26 PM:
That sounds very good. Yes, I also like doves, morning shoots and afternoons are completely different.
I like to grill dove breasts on alum foil with cubed steak and fahita vegetables like bell peppers and onions and serve on tortillas. I have a lifelong quandary between corn and flour, can never make up my mind, always have both.
My favorite areas are south and east of Yuma. They now have inspection stations on the CA side similar to what they have leaving Utah and entering AZ checking deer tags.
I guess we have one more year reprieve in using lead shot for dove only, in CA. The lead question is such a fraud. I can't believe the control freaks get away with it!
Good hunting. El Bee

We just wrap a strip of bacon around the breast and grill them.
Posted by DanS (Member # 316) on September 29, 2018, 07:42 AM:
Vic, I don't say Taycos when I eat those shelled things. But I do say tomayto (sic) and thought of a Mako shark, pronounced like MAYco. ![[Smile]](smile.gif)
But I suppose no one really cares.
