Good morning I had problems too. TD has called coyote before but not had much luck. Before we got rid of our goats a few years ago they started disapearing. Figured out it was coyotes The young ones would just disappear. Then they started on some of the bigger ones. Went out to feed one time and a coyote followed them in from pasture but wouldn't you know didn't have a gun so got away. You can hear them howling all the time around here.

Sorry Guys, That stuff Chuck sent is pretty interesting. Did you find anything when you panned yesterday? Rex Daryl could probably get you a ground hog from his mom's there is one over there driving her crazy. Are there only certain times you can get ground hogs?

heres a yote he did for this winter..best shot I ever made with 243.....the little bullet hit about an inch lower than what I was aiming...i took a hail mary shoot ,didn't think I would come close..the instant I touched it off, he dropped out of view of the scope.hit the deck stone cold dead..my mouth was hanging wide open ,I couldn't believe it..I have one of those wheels you roll across the ground to take measurements like a surveyor uses ..I rolled it out ...528 yards...I sent him this yote and 2 others ,he tanned it out mailed it back and said I should keep it as a trophy..soI gave him the other 2 hides..
