Howled in 3, Got the lead one.

Been having a rough time calling lately. Just couldn't make it work. Last weekend I called behind my dad's place and didnt see a thing. Sent my hound in the same bush an hour later and he pushes 3 coyotes out the other side. That hurt even more as I know these coyotes were there the entire time. Not a large bush either.

Anyways tonight I get to the farm and see a fox crossing the field. Could have shot him but they aren't worth anything and i like foxes.

Go down the road to the next farm and set up by 5pm. Start doing female invite on the fox pro and I would answer with my hand call. 10 minutes back and forth the coyotes light up waaaaay to the north. I did male challenge call and more lit up to the south but a lot closer.

5 minutes goes by and I crank my neck around to look up wind....3 coyotes trotting across the cattle pasture. They are 400 yards at this point so I could slowly inch my way around, finally got set up and the lead coyote is at 50 yards and almost downwind. I shoot him and he drops. Foxbang goes off and the other two stopped at 250-300....miss....miss...miss...I was so out of position so I was making terrible shots.

Owell first coyote with my new gun. Male 36lbs.

Thanks guys, I'm going to try another spot tomorrow night, Got Friday off work so the hounds will be coming out. Hopefully get a few more before they start to rub bad.
