after the shot I asked "did I hit it, where is it,where did it go and what are you laughing at?" :confused: :confused:. Then we walked over there towards where the coyote had been standing.  Within 35yds a magpie flew up,  which i took as a good sign. :biggrin: :biggrin:  Then after a few more steps I saw

Donny, I am most pleased that you are now officially hooked on predator hunting.  The longer you hunt the ultimate trickster, the more you'll like it.  Great looking coyote, great story.  Kudos to you young feller.  I'd share a stand with ya anytime.  :congrats: :congrats:

I'm assuming the laughing was Dad behind you, completely overwhelmed with pride :wink:

Thanks for sharing that story. I hope this is the first of many for you fella.

Donny,

FANTASTIC!  I am really glad to have been a part of your hunt, but I am sure that everyone will agree that it is not the call, but the caller that makes the game come in.  The images look great and if you ever need a new cameraman just let me know, I would be proud to take some shots like these.

Jerry
