Nice to have friends in the right places. The late Lawrence Welk and SD and pheasants- things that make our heartland great-- good luck with the winter season Roosters- about 1978 ish- after Christmas went to hunt for the week between the holidays with a USMC buddy in Manhattan, KS- balmy weather, just as we are having here now- snow, mud, lotsa milo and picked corn- bunnies, quail, some roosters (pretty spooky by then) and even had a female coyote charge me in a uncut milo field-
I thought it was a stray German Shepard at first- but my buddy who was behind me and couldn't safely shoot- yelled- "Yoteeee- shoot it- so I did (with my 12 ga. M12)- back then a female coyote was about $40 bounty, a male about $25- so our farmer host got the "dinero"-- He told us that after the bird season ended- maybe late Jan?? back then- they group hunted coyotes and foxes for the bounty money- organized drives, etc.
