Pumped the pressure in the PCP rifle too high and this is the result of not having a pressure regulated rifle. If I keep it around 1,200 psi it stacks them. SJC

This Mus would only come out after midnight and my schedule made it impossible for me to get a crack at it. This Mus didn't get the memo that I wasn't working the same schedule this week. SJC

This Mus was one tough customer, but I later confirmed that it didn't get to far away afterwards. Thermal is great, but it doesn't see through trees. SJC

It's a big male red fox. I've scared the crap out of it a couple of times with a halogen spotlight from a few feet away and am slowly turning it into a grey fox ! SJC

I suggest some type of window shutters to keep the ice and snow from building up around the outside of your shooting ports. Had a friend who had plexi windows that froze shut and made a lot of noise when opening after a storm. SJC

This little one was taking a stroll through the woods and shouldn't have stopped to smell the roses. SJC

I hunt in my backyard most of the time and my brothers place near Delhi. I don't go out till 10 pm most nights and it's pretty quiet except for the neighbors central A/C's cycling on and off, which makes good cover noise. Sometime it's fast paced action from the get go and sometimes I don't see anything. If I don't see any movement in a half hour, I go back inside and let the mosquitoes chew on something else. If i don't see anything for a couple of day's, I'll set some bait out in an area my dog can't get to. Rat's are more alert than mice are and I have a viewing spot that's in the shadows for that reason. Most of the time the Mus don't get a second chance, so they don't get to spread the word about me. I see owl's, cat's and my Fox buddy pay's a visit every once and awhile too. The more the merrier. SJC

This Mus thought it could sneak by me. Silly Mus....Splat ! SJC

Summer scouting is good to see if you have a good population of doe on a property. Doe are one of the best buck attractant's. Since doe are homebodies and will usually stay around their home turf unless really pressured, they will keep buck's on or around a property looking for a chance to breed. SJC

Nothing beat's boot's on the ground scouting. Cameras are just another tool in the shed. If you have reception, Cell cam's are a great investment. We really only use them if we're having an issue with trespassers or have a big buck pinpointed in an area. I use them a lot more during coyote season. During the deer season we see a lot of bucks that have never been seen on camera and some of the big bucks we do see on camera aren't seen till after the season ends. If we lease or get permission to hunt a new property, we use the spy high camera mounts to avoid theft. For me, It's too hot out to scout. I sit in the AC and view pics on my cell phone with a cold beverage. SJC

We have solar cell cameras set up around the areas and stands we hunt, So all we do is minimal trail maintenance and try to keep as low a profile as possible. Remember to wear treated clothing or treat your clothing for tick's, as those bloodsucking POS's have been out in full force. SJC

Got it dialed in. SJC

My condolences. They take a piece of our soul when they pass, but they leave memories for us to cherish. SJC

I like the idea, but I prefer putting the hot barreled rifle in the shade and heating up another rifle. SJC

This one wasn't so lucky, even though it took a few shots to drop it. Was having an issue with the scope having corrupted files, so I needed to reboot the scope, upload the newest firmware and re-zero it with some new RWS pro line pellets since I was running out of my old stock of RWS match grade pellet's. SJC

This Mus was in a no shoot zone. It gave me the claw and ran away to live another day. SJC

This one thought it was invisible or pellet proof. Splat SJC

Put on the bug juice and went Mus hunting. SJC

Can't leave voles out, especially when they join the dance on the killing floor ! SJC

Just do it !

I flipped a coin, it lost. SJC

Black or White hot, the Berra/Rix combo is dialed in. SJC
