Subject: Compucaller III
Burnham Brothers continues to lead the predator calling industry by bringing more folks into the game. While Mossy Oak has partnered with Burnham Brothers since the mid 90’s with the four part EYES FRONT video series. Two years ago, Gary Roberson owner of Burnham Brothers convinced Savage Arms that this time was right to build a rifle dedicated to this sport, then came the Model 10 Predator Hunter. This past year, Roberson worked with Jon Allen and Jon LaCorte of Nikon Sport Optics to produce a riflescope specific for coyote calling. This past weekend, Mossy Oak, Savage Arms, Nikon Sport Optics and Burnham Brothers met in northeast New Mexico for a coyote hunt. While the coyotes were not responding as well as we hoped, we had a great time and visited about what we can do to help this great sport to continue to grow.
This last week, I received emails and text messages from some young hunters who had recently purchased Compucaller III’s. One of the young fellows is from Mason and had just won a calling contest in Mason with 36 gray fox taken in 24 hours. Another young gent from San Angelo won the Sonora hunt last weekend with 20 gray fox and a bobcat. I met a couple of young hunters at Cleburne and sold them a Compucaller III. They carried it to the field that evening and called up 5 coyotes, one cat and a fox on three stands. The next night he hunted again and killed eight coyotes.
It is great to see all of these young guys out there hunting instead of doing all of the things that get so many young folks in trouble. Predator control costs taxpayers over $100 million annually and these young hunters kill predators at no expense to any one.
Two weeks ago, Nikon sent Michael Engelmeyer down from St. Louis, Missouri to photograph me with some of their new products. Fortunately, we were able to accomplish our mission in one afternoon. Last week, Michael returned with Erin Gavin with Mossy Oak and we shot photos of hunting apparel for two full days. My oldest son, Clint is an archery hunter and modeled Friday morning and then left for Terrell County to do a little hunting with his brothers.I continued to work as we shot on three different ranches and with three different sets of clothes and three different hunting situations, predator, archery and deer. I am not sure how many photos were taken but no doubt over 1,000; surely one or two of them will work for something. The very best news is that I did not break the camera!
The Burnham Brothers SL-18 Shooting Light offers a stellar advantage for the best of hunters. When you have this light, no predator can hide. With this light shooting system, you can be sure that the target that you have in mind is going down.
Welcome to the future of hunting. Don’t be left behind. It does everything advertised as well as being compact and has no loose wires to get tangled up in.
