Could come in handy for our coyote problem! (All puns and inuendo intended)

Yep. It could get you into the real hard back country to photograph them
before they disapear, eh.

By the way Cody, I was thinking that even if you get a new Motorcycle,
You would be pleased in twenty five years or so if you hung onto the 81
model also and kept it in an original and working order ?

My first road legal bike was a 49 model 500cc AJS. Loved that bike.
I sold it for 20 pounds in 1957 so I could buy an engagement ring ! Shoulda
borrowed the money and kept it. Like to still have it.
Cheers.

Cody,
I have two mounted coyote's in my living room. Both shot from my porch. One a 80 yard shot to the neck with a 22 and the other a 200 yd shot with my SKS - 47.

Had the first one mounted because few people around here have seen a coyote up close. Had the second one mounted because it was such a phenominal shot. $550 to mount the last one.

I thought only sheephearders "mounted" animals? And you had to pay?

actually one of the best investments you can make are rare books
not only that ...you get to read them

I wouldn't want the old Ajay for an investment Rob, but purely for nostalgia
and it would be a talking point also. I could find one and buy it but it would
not be the same as it would not have been mine !

Have to agree about owning books tho. I am an insatiable reader and rarely
get to bed before 1 or 2 am every night because I have my nose in a book.
Books come alive and can take you to the ends of the universe and back.
Not only that but they awaken you to the presence of the little people
down the bottom of the garden including the wild life.
I've never spoken to a Coyote but I would very much like to swap yarns with him !
I believe that when he is, sportingly killed, a little bit of us die too.
Cheers.
