yesterday me and the daughter hunted hard all day, called atleast 15 stands and had one responce i missed and another cotyote peek over a knoll 600 yards away and dissapear, it was cool and perfectly calm, a hunters nicest day usually!today started out like it was going to be the same woke up to the trees blowing, got out to the first spot and within 10 minutes had one on the ground, within 2 more had another one running a ridge, I figured it was a cat and got exited but ended up being a really mangy coyote after I walked up, no tail at all, next place got another mangy coyote,that was # 9 for the year, worst year ever I remember! Oh well had oen nice on in the truck, nexyt spot was nothign and the next spot had a single come in in the 30 mph winds,we were callign huge draws were they had to come in with the wind at there back or climb the sides and circle way around, they were not going into the wind, they would stay in the calmer draws,that was 2 good ones, next stand nothign then all of a sudden a coyote was standing 100 yards away at the edge of the trees,one shot and he was done but all of a sudden another busted right beside me I did not see come in,I barked a few times and did a wounded pup and he stopped and walkd out 40 yards from the first one, this one was hit a bit back and needed a 1/4 mile trackign to find him dead! next stand a single tried to sneek around but had to cross a openign were I dropped him at about 200 yards, next 2 were uneventfull but the last one of the night ahd one hanging back and would not coem in I finally coaxed him in a bit and was ready to shoot and boom, clean miss, I checked the gun and 1.5 high at 100, not very often i miss a coyote at less than 200 standing but I did today and it still ticks me off lol, oh well great day,just got done skinning and need a shower and bed now!long hard day!this makes 42 good hides and 9 crappy, hides in the past 6 weeks or so, headign for a record this fall!!

Re: another good one!!

alot of guys are not having luck here either,I am becouse of the howler,I am combining the howler with the distress,a greeting howl and adding a few yips in with the distress to make it sound like a coyote catching a rabbit, each time changing up a bit to,if theya re hanging back a bit I will add a few other goodies in, been my best year callign so far!! if the weather holds up till the 15 of feb and they keep prime I shoudl break 125 hopefully!
