Where to start

[Roundman]

A neighbor of mine called week before last and told me coyote had killed one of her sheep. So last week I drive around fence and find a new slide under. Now why these coyote dig under the fence instead of going up the hill to the barb wire I don't know. Any hoo, I put up a snare and guarantee her a catch in two weeks. (this keeps her happy) Well before I hit the deer woods this afternoon I check the snare and sure enough I catch a small female.

Now I'm setting in the woods sending Bop a pic message. I'm waiting for a deer to walk under me and I look to my left and see movement. It's too small to be a deer, but I see fur, I thinks it's a coyote. I pull out the sceery ap9 and hit it very softly. The dog turns and comes to a downed log and he's just on the other side of it looking around. Now I can see his head and back only. As I'm thinking the only way I will have a shot is if he jumps up on the log....and all of the sudden he jumps up on the log.

I pull back the bow and let the string drop, the lumenok disappeared into his chest. A perfect 25 yard shot.


What a good day.

Luck does not even play a role in situations like this. When your good, your good. Thanks for sharing that with us.

Nice shot.  Won't be as good to eat as venison, but getting two will help make up the difference.

Wow I missed this and am sorry I did as that's a great story and the pics are wonderful too .  When snaring I find more good spots for a snare in the worst locations than in the "easy" ones.  That should get you a lamb chop for your troubles

[GunDog]

Yep....what they said  Congrats to you on both the mutts
