Another odd Cal Sportsman video. Last time it was some guy killing a pig with a spear. In this one, the range seems far too great to consistently insure a clean, humane kill. And if you simply wound, you now have a much more difficult stalk to finish the botched job. I’d save the long range shooting for prairie dogs, not deer. Yes, in my view it’s unethical.

Target practice, not hunting.

“I got two coyotes with head shots with a .22 LR at 340 yards which is the best I’ve ever done. The bullet drop was almost 36”.”

A 22 LR will drop 120” at 300 yds, you better remeasure your field.

Oh, and if it’s a coyote I’ll give it a go no matter what.

Same here, but I also include loose pit bulls in the county too.

That’s not hunting. That’s “Let’s go shoot something.”

I understand your feeling on the dogs. When we were running cattle we used to have to go shoot the dogs and it was usually golden retrievers that were the worst. Don’t know why.

Now we run bison and all we have to do is once in a while pick up the stomped-flat corpses of dogs who mistook bison for cattle.

Memo to dogs: They are NOT the same thing!
