Good job!  If you ran the DNA the heeler might show up in that one.

Just curious..does the white tip mean anything in particular or is it just a preference to some?

Does that white have anything to do with age?

I'm surprised to see that the 7mm didn't do more damage. I would have thought the whole fur would have been wasted.
Nice job. I hope you can do something good with it to remember the occasion. :)

Huntingfool7- I had winchester supreme elite line. The extended range hi density coyote load, they are 3 inch, 1 3/8 oz. blend of I'm not even sure, I had awesome results on paper out to 40 yards, then they start to spread out too much for my comfort. I shot that coyote at 15-20 yards and it was surprisingly clean and lethal, coyote dropped 5 feet from where I shot her, also within 10 seconds the cry stopped. I would recommend them for sure!

Last coyote I killed was at about 10 feet with a load of #5 pheasant load to the face. Didn't go far  :chuckle:
