Well I headed over to Valley View tx, My buddy told me to bring the wife and the kids over for a little get together. He also told me that there has been a lot of coyotes howling pretty close to his house. So I loaded everyone up and headed on over. After a big ole steak and taters, we decided to let the wives have the house and we would run over and make a quick stand. I manned the shotgun and I gave him my Remington 700 BDL. .223 . I only had one light that was connected to my shotgun so I was standing out in front of him.. As I was getting ready to start calling, I felt the wind finnaly start blowing, and we were in a bad spot the wind was at our backs, So I decided to move over about 100 yds and try to call back the direction that we had just came from, but a little farther down. I liked the setup and everything looked good. Semi cloudy, not a lot of moon. Ohh it felt perfect. I started out with a lone howl. Almost immediatley i heard another coyote off in the distance, upwind and about 1/4 mile away.. I waited about 3 mins, and hit my first series, with one of my open reeds, I started soft with about a medium tone I guess you could say, 10 second series, nothing... waited about a minute, did my second series, about 10 seconds after my last note, I noticed some bouncing eyes coming from against the treeline that we had just been sitting next to. I told My buddy shane to get ready, He tried to move into postion but the trees were just in the way. The Coyote hung up on the fence line.. A little lip squeak and here he came. I was the only one with a shot and he took a Hevi-shot Dead coyote load at 15 yds. Dropped in like a rock. I did a some coyote distresses but nothing came in. I have some pics but they are on his camera, I forgot mine of course. If I would have been prepared, we probably wouldn't have got anything. :biggrin: I'll have the pics in a couple of days, It was another young pup, Nice coat on him though. I hope this winters furs are gonna be good. I can't wait. Well I hope you enjoyed this long story but that's the only ones I know how to tell. lol... Aaron.
