Now that Missouri firearms deer season has ended I decided to close the shop about 4PM and take off to do a little coyote calling.
Went up to a neighbors place a little over a mile North, he has a great hedge row that I like to set in and do some calling.
Got to my favorite spot and started to set up when South of me about 300 yards four does take off across a bean field and run past me heading Northwest.
I was not all the way set up yet so I just kneel in place wondering what might have spooked them.
In about a minute I find out, this coyote bounds out into the bean field, stops broadside to me at what I estimated to be 300 yards and watches the deer exit the Northwest corner of the bean field.
Even though the winds in my favor and I have good cover from the hedge row I decide not to move other then to bring my rifle to my shoulder.
I squeeze off the shot from my 223 and the coyote drops like a rock, I get out my range finder and range him, 302 yards.
It sure feels good to get back to hunting coyotes.
Best Regards
