asleep at the pump house

[LBLDOG]

 I had a good set up this afternoon (sunday) .I had a pond behind me a partly open field  with some corn at hte endand a leavy and a corn field to my right. I set a turkey decoy out with some distress going because the land owner said he had 3 guinneys killed. I was leaning against a pumphouse over looking the field. I fell asleep after setting there a little over a hour and woke up with a coyote at the very end of the field at the edge of the corn , the yote lets out like a  soft moan and a few barks and out pops a little one. I could see them for a second and could tell they were looking at the turkey and was going to wait closer to dark. I didnt move a muscle and could barely make them out at the end of the field , they where in high weeds. I had my ar- 15 across my lap and wasnt going to move a muscle and this was at 4.30 .  I guess at least a hour or more passed by and I finally re-positioned my ar on my knee . The sun started going down over the trees and sure enough here they come a momma and a little one. I guess she was going to show the little guy how to hunt.  I clicked the safety off and was ready  and as she was coming in she bolted about 50 yards from my decoy over the leavy and was gone. I really didnt want to start praying and spraying as she run of f . I was afraid I would educate them and didnt want to do that. They had no I dea I was there they spooked on the decoy .  I will give it a few weeks and try a different approach and not use the turkey.  I kind of wished I would have shot ,but a part of me is glad I didnt .

I have often found myself dozing off on stand also and wondered what it would be like to have a coyote sneak in
and wake ya up  :shck:

That had to be like having a dream I woulda been in heaven and snapping pics if I could.
It's not hard to doze off, out there away from it all.

Just don't make any setups in a tree stand. I fell out of a apple tree in my back yard a few weeks ago and made some apple sauce out of the apples laying on the ground. It Hurts.  cc
