Went out this morning with my buddy Casey, he just acquired a Foxpro Scorpion and he still hasn't been able to get his new AR bloody. I got one on the first stand, she came in at 6 min. I guess she cruised right by Casey at like 40 yards, but it was too thick for a shot. He whooped at her a few times but she kept moving. Casey's whoops were right in pitch with the foxpro, sounded kind of like that little beep you get with walkie talkies, y'all know that electronic blip sound I'm talking about??? Anyway, at the six minute mark that's what I thought was happening, and was seriously thinking "oh I bet Casey's pissed that his caller is making that racket"...and a dog popped out between me and the caller, maybe 12 yards from me. She saw me get my rifle up so she turned and started leaving straight away. She couldn't outrun a bullet though It wasn't until she was all piled up that I realized what the sound really was.
Next 4-5 stands were dry.
Last stand was perfect. We were set up in open stuff at about 9am by now. There was a thick brushy draw, and we sat on either side. At about 8 minutes I could see a cow looking hard into the draw, but I couldn't see in. Sure enough a minute later it was on my side of the hill, focused on the sound. Sneaking in, turns out he could see the truck shining behind us, but was coming right to me. He even put his head down for a minute for me to get my rifle on him, so he never even saw me. I waited a small while hoping Casey would see him but he was a little behind the rise and I had a picture perfect shot...so he died. Couldn't have been more perfect. Maybe 50 yards. Sure as shootin'.
The dog in my left hand was a big male, way bigger than the female.
Anyway it was a good time, hopefully we saved some calves and fawns. Clark, if you're reading we'll have to hit 'em hard over the break. You still need to get one, and you're due!
