The Lonely Hunter

[atchman2]

I'm finding it hard to locate game in new lands.  I found cuttings all over the place.  Tomorrow if it is nice, I'll go after I drop my daughter off at school.  This time I'm going to take my Whisper for scouting!  That 350 wears me out!

Jim nothing like getting out in the woods by yourself and being on the prowl looking for game.

Nice photos of those unfortunate victims. You're getting close......soon you'll have a shot. Lucky for you to be right next to some open/wooded land.

Those photos are cool. It's rare to come across a sight like that.

Jim,
If it's Yotes in the area, you'll see only four toes in the print and it's smaller for the stride and less round with more gap between the toes than a dogs. Rear print will be slightly smaller than front. Good pictures here.

More lonely hours in the woods - time well spent. Though the temps came up into the 20s still not game. Lots of fresh tracks though. I wandered through the kill zone I described earlier to find the three carcasses dug up and picked clean. I guess they coyotes were just saving the rest for later. I was going to try to get out at night this weekend but with temps down below zero I thought it would be a suffering waste of time... so I stayed home.
