Last one for 2008

Did two stands this morning before the guys arrived for the Deerhunt, had fox on both but the first got away by an inch. But this one came in straight from 6 or 700 yards over a field and then the frosen lake, he didn´t stop so the first shot missed then i threw away the second when he ran 100 yards out hitting him were he tumbled and dropped......

The call this time was my homemade "PeeWee" sounds like a dream meal to the foxes, a light but longrange scream......

Take it easy on the fireworks tonight.......lets hope 2009 brings in more "Reds"

Santa came early!!

Phew!!.... now the weekends are almost over, that means that the calling season will peak more and more out to the last of March. On Monday the 22:nd there was a package in the mail bundle from the creator of Nordik Predator (P-A Åhlén) it was his new baby the "Nordik Crying Bird" distress call for predators, so far i can only say it has a different sound to what im used to but when i hear it i feel that the sound will attract small predators such as fox and martens i also belive this call will work in Lynx populated area..... Im up for 4 days of hunting starting tomorrow so i´ll be back with the field test result on the call (pics will be added).

I must say we have been blessed with the great weather over xmas, me and my buddies have been out hunting for Roedeer almost every day we have been off work, and i actually shot a small buck last friday.... too bad i wasn´t carrying the camera..

Happy New Year!!!

One European Hare in the bag....

Today we had an insane huntingday as for Roedeer, we hunted four areas and had a total of 33 Roedeer up and running 24 in the first area 3 in the next and 7 in the last....one area was empty, too bad we didn´t get any of them in range for the shooters but now we know we can tax this population this year without doing it much damage. My friend Björn shot a European hare in the last area and i forgot the camera at home so for those of you who want to see what they look like i have pasted a link below....

Happy hunting!

Found a funny lumberhideout!

I spent this Saturday tracking our area for game but the heavy snowfall made the game pretty slow and they were not moving around so i tracked for several hours without findng anything but this little truckcabin that was fitted with a small stove and a bench + table, guess lumbers use it too eat lunch and have coffebreaks on during badweather days.

On Sunday we hunted Roedeer with dog again and i almost got the shot this time, i made a bummer and answered the cellphone just as the Deers came running past me "##%¤&#%!!

We are going for it nex weekend again WITHOUT phone :)
