Yeah baby, shot me a male yote this morning. Unfortunately, I educated his partner.
Got permission to hunt a guys property. I've been seeing them on the property, on my way to find fatwood. Sorry Brian, I got side tracked.
Anyway, I went out there this morning, staked the field out. Didn't take long, a male come walking out. Kind of small, maybe a pup. I don't have a range finder, I figure it was around 200 yds. Put the crosshairs high on his back, dropped him.
Well, then I started doing the puppy death cry with my call. I saw another run back into the trees. It must have been following the brush line, out of sight. I kept calling, hoping it would come back out. After a few minutes, I heard it coming towards me thru the brush. Well the damn thing was almost in my lap. It's amazing how they can pinpoint a sound, and find you.
It came in from the worst possible direction it could. I got my rifle up to shoot, couldn't see anything. Sun was right in my scope. Thing was 20 ft from me, I couldn't see it in the scope. Needless to say, it didn't hang around long.
I guess I should have brought a shotgun too. But I didn't expect to get one that close. That's what makes coyote hunting so exciting.
Of course I left the camera at home again,,
