Favorite Hunting Pic

[bowhunt32]

It's been a while since we've had a good hunting pic thread going. Being the dead part of the summer, it would be nice to retreat to cooler days and share some of our favorite pics and the stories behind them.

This first one, while not the best photo it has a lot of meaning for me. My brothers (also my hunting buddies) had moved out of the area due to military assignments. They made it home all at the same time, and we made it out on a calling trip after a short snow fall just before daylight. We drove the roads of our hunting area, cutting tracks in the new snow and calling them. Had a great day.

The second I like, simply becaus I love calling in the fog, due to close encounters and they typically scare the crap out of me, as they show up out of no where. With this particular coyote I had been on stand for about 7-8 mins. I look over my shoulder and about 30 yards away he was staring at me.

lets see and year about your favorites.

Here's one of mine. A double my dad and I pulled off on the first stand of the season.

Here was the results of a couple days of calling.

And it's not a predator pic, but it means alot. My first deer.

This is my favorite just because it was by far the most fun coyote hunting trip I have ever taken. I was with my 2 best hunting buddies and we killed 7 dogs this day(one not pictured cause it was killed on the way home). Great day with great friends.

Sorry guys you didn't say predators only. This is one of my favorite pictures because it's the largest whitetail I have shot with my bow. 168 gross.

This is one of my favorite predator pictures because it was a great weekend with my buddy TR.

While my daughter isn't quite old enough to share the hunts with me yet I have enjoyed having her in a few pictures. I hope to share alot of good memories with her in the future, and as of August the 8th I will have another to drag around with me. Pretty neat to see her grow up while being in my photos with dead stuff...

Good hunts with my kids are my favorite. I get more excited watching them make a good shot than when I do.
Jayden's first buck age 13

Kaci's first coyote that she called on her own age 10

Holy smokes Pro Hunt thats a pile of geese. I could only dream of that many. Lots of cleaning, but oh so good!

 

[trashcan]

My favorite hunting pics by far are the two I got this year with my dad. He and I both got nice bucks and had a great weekend together.

I just like this one cause it drives him crazy. I framed it and gave it to him for Christmas, geeez dad, hurry it up!! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

I also have to throw this one in there. This is the first pig killed (by me!!)on our ranch in more than 25 years.

Mine are a bunch of firsts...

Here are the first coyotes I ever called. Ended up with my first double too! Called with the tally ho.

Here is my first bobcat.

First coyote called and shot with my lovely wife by my side. She's a trooper!

First coyotes my bro-in-law has ever seen called. He's hooked now. Same place as picture above.

First coyote called with my foxpro. Took about 45 minutes but it was still exciting.

First day my buddies and I actually made money doing what we love. Ended up clearing about $5 a person. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

First coyote with my new savage .243.

First fox called and shot just a few weeks ago while trying to thin out the predators around our neighborhood.

And finally one of these coyotes was my first and only shot with my .17 HMR. Walked about 10 yds and fell over.

Couple of my favorites:

8 coons from one building, the bigger red dog retired after this hunt and it will always hold a place in my heart. I saw more heart from all 4 dogs that day than I can remember. An epic battle was the best way to describe it.

On of the many nicknames I answer to.

My best deer to date taken at 475yards.

Not a great photo, but makes me remember the Idaho bear hunt and good dogs of yesterday. Bubba the old SoDak coon hound turned bear dog. Never was the same after we got back. He was GOOD!

 

[BBsteel]

Here's the best year I've had:

My dog busting through ice after a drake mallard on a cold MN Thanksgiving morning. We shot a handful of ducks that day.

Biggest Archery Buck for me:

First Predator Kill:

My second predator kills with shotguns (1 was my bro's):

First Spring Gobbler with a bow:
