Well it's been a slow year for predators this year. I had a dry spell January thru March, and hung up the calls until August. I got a bobcat in early August but haven't been out as much as I would have liked to this year. I've seen a bunch of coyotes and put my buddies on a few but today I finally shot one for myself.
My wife's family was in town for their annual Christmas party so I took two of my brothers-in-law to try and find some predators. Third stand of the morning about 5 minutes in this guy came running in. We were callin' the thick stuff but he came in so that I had plenty of time to set up and was very ready when he popped out of a ditch at about 15 yards. He was trotting right to me and I let him have a chest/neck/face full of 3" #4 buckshot. HAMMERED him, as you might imagine! I forgot my camera so this was taken from my brother-in-law's phone:
