Went to a couple of spots to call for coyotes today and I was duped. We parked the truck in the field just a few yards from the road so as not to spook any coyotes in the crick bottom. We walked about 1/2 mi to the crick and sat down …
The Commissioners met today to approve new regulations and directions for the NE Game and Parks with some really neat things happening in 2010. 1. A new venue of shooting range facilities are being developed for Platte River State Park to include a 5o yard small bore range, 50 archery range and …
I have never worked harder for coyote in my life. We walked into the section through 2-3 feet of snow for over 1/2 mile before finding our calling site. The area overlooked a large crick bottom drainage surrounded by pasture and cedar. We had seen coyotes many times here. Finally …
We recently received a grant from the Archery Trade Association to implement a new youth education program called “Explore Bowhunting” that teaches kids about hunting using a standard equipment kit, text books, etc. We will be looking for teachers in NE that may desire to start an after school club/program …

We had a chance to head out the night before this snow storm hit for a bit of coyote calling. What a debacle! The snow was pretty crunchy. Every step was as loud as a freight train. Actually that crusted over stuff is important in deep snow as predators tend …
Will be headin to Harlan in a few days to do some more predator calling and I always like to go for crows once I have finished calling for coyotes. Crows are an absolute blast. The shooting can be fast, often and always fun! I like to set out 2-5 crow decoys …
