This is a funny , as well as aggrivating story , LOL. I went to an area I hadn't hunted yet this year , wednesday. I set up with an open pasture downwind of me. The ground is rolling hills and valleys, with wooded draws running through the pasture . I was set up on the edge of a mixed hardwoods and pine thicket . I started doing a deer distress and immediately , four deer came out of the closest wooded hollow in the pasture. So I started fooling around with them , bad idea. But, it was fun, every time I'd hit the call ,they'd run closer . Then as soon as I'd stop , they'd start trying to see where the critter was making the squalls. I quit for a bit ,to see what they'd do. They started to come across the field ,and were almost in the thicket, I was on the edge of. So , I hit the call again , really lettin' her rip. Two of the deer ran back towards me , with the other two stopping where they were . As I was watching the two coming towards me, I caught a movement from the direction , the other two were . I turned my head, to see a big coyote ,at about 25 yards, running right between me and the closer two deer. It saw me, about the same time I figured out what it was , and started doing the coyote hop , look, thing trying to figure out what I was . I managed to get my gun up , just as it stopped on the edge of the hollow the deer originally came from . I sent a hurried , but non-lethal round its way . It responded by hopping over the edge and into the hollow. I tryed in vain to call it back . But, at that point I was laughing so hard , I couldn't of found my arse with both hands. LOL :eyebrownod: As usual , when you let your guard down ,for even a second , the buggers show up. I still consider it a great hunt , kill or not ,it was fun, as any I can recall. I'll get that one another time. Maybe with the live decoys again. LOL :eyebrownod:
Ok Jimmie , give me a hard time , I deserve it lol.
