You found my alter ego.      Kind of like that name but not as fitting over here as it is there.

Two more for can't hit shat.

The first one may have been one of the two I missed on tuesday. It was in the exact same place but wasn't so lucky today. I put a great stalk on it and got to 319 and slammed it. Actually had to hit it 3 times though. First shot was perfect but the bullet blew up on the shoulder. It was trying to get away and the second hit it back a bit but the 3rd ended it. I love those long shots!!! 


Called in this guy at my second to last set. It was a beautiful thing!! I howled a bit and noticed some deer get spooked out of there beds. They were looking at something and I figured it was a yote. About a minute passed and this guy came up onto the horizon. He sat for a bit so I did some squeeks and he closed a bit then stopped. Did some more squeeks and he started coming slowly. He started to downwind me and stopped in a snow bank at 135. Done deal. I'm loving this swift!!!!!! Can you say MANGE!! Yuk.

Nope, a 220 swift. He's a nasty bugger aint he?

New to the site and love it.  Gutpile told me about it so I'd like to add the yote I got last sat to his group. Having a little trouble loading the pic on so if it doesn't show up, some directions would be helpful. I am computer illiterate but I know how to use my guns. I shot this brainless pup at 200yds just high of the boiler room and got him to stop again at 330 by barking at him. I got a headshot that put him down. I don't know why he stopped after he was already hit. I thought the first was a miss till I skun him. Trying to learn to tan them but this one didn't work. I salted it and stretched it, then found it split while drying. I was using a stevens 22-250.

Welcome aboard S E D. Nice looking yote!

[boneaddict]

He sure is light colored.....  WELCOME to the site.

Missed one this morning at 208yds. After I found the front mount of my scope was loose.

I shot four 'yotes yesterday.  I only got pictures of two.  A buddy of mine was hunting in a coyote derby and stole my two morning coyotes before I could get a picture.  I started off the morning checking two dead cows - no coyotes!  I couldn't believe it?  I cruised back home and was going to do some calling in our canyons. but they were fogged in!  Damn it.  Jumped in the pickup and drove the the family farm.  I managed to knock two coyotes down in the seeded ground (walking sucked).   The first was running 200 yards straight away and the second was a 305 running left to right.  I missed one running straight away at 350.  After I bs'ed my buddies awhile (and they took my 'yotes), I headed back down to the river.  It had snowed about 1" and cleared up.  My brother and I spotted two coyotes on the top of the ridge and he ranged the back one at 425.  He stopped for a split second and I sent him to 'yote heaven.  The second coyote was about 1 mile down the canyon and was mousing at 416 yards.  Almost the same shot I had 1/2 hour before.  I gave him a 10" hold over, touched one off, and sent him into a 5o yard death run.  4 coyotes was not too bad for a slow, slow start.  Here are the two river dogs:
