close range yotes

Yesterday I had one come in so fast that he got to 10 yards and did a 180 before I could get my gun up. Love them close. I've had several grab my caller decoy.

Had one at ten feet tonight. Wind shifted and I did not adjust. Came in from behind ten feet to my left. I treys to swing but it kicked in the afterburners.

had two do that this year

I've got one on video that pops out of the brush and almost has to jump over my legs to get away.  The sad part was he came in so close and was gone so fast that I couldn't get him in the scope and he got away.  Every once in a while I watch the video and laugh.  It doesn't make me all that mad because I went back a couple months later and changed the call and ended up taking him in the exact same spot.  I was glad he popped out further down because I was able to get him in the scope this time. I also have video of calling one in the thick stuff using a woodpecker distress and he pops out on old grassy logging road at about 10 yards and is looking around in the trees for the bird.  It is as funny as it gets.  I would post them up but they are on old VHS, yes VHS video tapes and would probably take to long.

Over the years I have had coyotes run into me ,Had one land in my lap after shooting and be snapping at the wound , (too close, And covered me with blood) had a pair jump right over my head once and a single come from my 6 and jump over me( sitting with rocks @ my back) . Killed several with the barrel of my gun pushing them off as they ran by . WOW this is making me remember a lot of close encounters LOL.  But I prefer to stop them at about 50 yrds if possible .

Sounds like I've got a lot more hunting to do so I can have some of those experiences that sounds like fun I usually see them around 200 yards in the first time I see them I shoot them

Shot one at about 10 yards with my .300 weatherby mag a few years ago. Litterally blew it in half. I had guts scattered for about 30 yards is all directions. That was pretty cool  I actually usually shoot them within 50 yards more times then not.

My wife walked out the front door of our Day Care Center and encountered one standing 15 feet from the front door. She chased it off onto the neighboring property.

Im thinkin we need taller fences...!
