For me its so great to see it work know that everything has to be just right to get it to come in. And when it all works out just right and you get it what a rush. I called in a coyote the other day was watching it come in from 1/2 mile out it was great. To be able to see how it works as I call then it hung up on a fence I was just starting to really put some call love on that guy when a little female came in to my left and I had to take her.

I don't hunt anything beside with my hounds. But I've been seeing HUGE Toms everywhere. I seen one that had a beard almost to the ground. Monster. Damn near made me want to buy a stamp. I almost run a few over driving to work everyday. I think they had/have a good year. Makes me think the Bobcats are having a good year also.

I'm sure Bobcats are having a great year. I have seen Bobcats out in spots I have never seen them. I have also had lots of nuisance calls for Bobcats this year getting into chickens and eating house cats. And everyone of the calls they have said its the first time they have had any trouble with Bobcats.
