I would like to take exception to Dean Bortz’s comments in the “State Roundup” of the last issue that “young hunters can have a ton of fun at night by easily shooting coyotes with thermal and night vision optics.”
I have been calling and shooting coyotes at night for almost 50 years. I can tell you, “easily” is about the last word to describe the practice, even with some of the advanced optics of today.
