A pile of 'yotes
« on: August 27, 2008, 08:16:45 PM »
Here are a couple of 'yote hunting pics.  In the second pic, I shot 3 out of a group of 4 yotes.  My hunting partner was little put out, so I put my rifle away.  He ended up with two of his own that day.  First pic is from a first place day of shooting 'yotes in a derby a couple years ago.  It was the first year that I shot my Cooper .204.  Best coyote gun ever!

Josh, I couldn't agree more.  I bought a Kimber Varmint 22-250 with my winnings.

I need to start playing in some tourneys.  It sure looks like fun.  JJ, those are some nice sized coyotes.  What general area were you in?

TL, we were in 139/142.

JDB, they are over the last couple of years.  I am not as good about keeping a camera around as I used to be.....  I had several 3 'yote days last year and one 4 'yote day.  I also had a double with my single shot cooper!

Rick,

It is a local derby in Eastern Washington.  Just a bunch of farm kids, but they can shoot!  The 'yotes are pretty call shy late in the year, so I just howl.  I had a lot of dogs hanging up at 500-600 hundred yards last year so I built a long range 300 Win topped with a Nightforce.  168 grain VLD's should do the trick!

I usually hunt deer in 39.  A lot of good looking 'yote country.

Rick,

It will be awhile before I hit the fields for 'yotes.  Deer and elk hunting until the end of November, then Sonora Mule deer in January.  Do you make howlers?  I might have to buy a couple calls from you this winter.  Always looking for a unique sounding open-reed.   I have shot a few 'yotes with shotguns, but usually take the Cooper or the Les Baer .204.  Hope to see some of your pics up on the sight.   I will try to post some throughout the season.  Good luck this fall.

 I use a Sceerey Howler right now and it brings them charging in!  Always looking for a new call, though.  Glad to see that business is good.  Thanks for the pics.   I have to get one of those from you!
