First Impressions

I got a call from a landowner whose brother had two newborn calves in the pasture. Around noon, they went out and found three coyotes circling one of them. I told him I'd come out that evening and see what I could do.
I made my first stand in front of the house and took one. After that, I pulled into the driveway and met his brother and wife. He showed me where I could park by the barn, so I headed a couple hundred yards out behind it to make another stand.

I figured I'd try to make a good first impression.

Seven coyotes on one stand ought to accomplish that. That's not something you run into every day.
The FOXPRO X48 has been treating me pretty well, too. Here's the video;

That should leave a lasting impression as well! Pretty amazing as usual.

I called him to ask if it was alright to drive out and pick up the coyotes. He had been standing in the driveway listening to the whole thing and said he'd come out and help. I started walking toward the furthest downed coyote, and he met me right at the puddle of blood. He noticed my green laser shining across his pasture, tracing a line all the way back to my shooting position behind his barn.

After we gathered them up and made it back to my setup, I let him watch some of the videos through the scope. Before I headed out, he'd asked me if I was absolutely certain I could tell the difference between a calf and a coyote. By the time he watched those videos, I don't think he had any reservations left about me shooting around his cattle.

Well dang it Jeremy, new property will most likely cut way back on your overall numbers! :giggle: :giggle:

I feel a little out of whack. My muscle memory is still wired for the TX1000, and I'm having to retrain it for the layout of the TX2000. The recall and preset buttons have changed positions, so I find myself having to glance down at the screen a little more often than I'm used to.
