2020 Coyotes
« on: August 11, 2020, 02:24:20 PM »
I think we need a coyote success thread similar to bear/deer/elk.  So i'll get it started here.

Note: This is NOT a contest. Just sharing success stories, photos, and videos.

Here's a video of one I shot this morning.  Shot is at 2:59.

I shot a couple this year. Trying out a thermal imaging scope. Shot one at 30 yards and the other at 113 yards. The thermal scope works great.

I provide a service to cattle ranchers year around that have problem coyotes.  I also provide guided night hunts year around. I sell Night Vision and Thermal optics. The scopes I use are the NVision Halo XRF and Pulsar Merger XL50 LRF HD Binoculars

65 yotes sounds like a very nice fur check!

Between my daughter and myself I think we are only up to 10 or 12. Been a slow year so far. Last year we hit 40 even.

The video in my first post is number 10 for me since January of this year.  In feb or April I had 3 come through in 4 days.  For the past 3 or 4 months it's been pretty regular 1 per month at my place.

I haven't made the plunge to thermal.....yet.... It looks nice.

sweet.  That definitely got the job done!  I had a coyote in the crosshairs of my 300 winmag once.  Unfortunately I didn't have a safe enough backstop and had to pass on the shot and the coyote got away.

One does not hunt in order to kill; on the contrary, one kills in order to have hunted. If one were to present the sportsman with the death of the animal as a gift he would refuse it. What he is after is having to win it, to conquer the surly brute through his own effort and skill with all the extras that this carries with it: the immersion in the countryside, the healthfulness of the exercise, the distraction from his job. ~ Jose Ortega y Gasset

Been there done that.  :chuckle:
A .22 revolver did the trick on the little guy. Rolled it. In my defense I heard him coming in and was so focused on the shot when his head and chest poked up about 10 yards away in the thick reprod. Still one less future fawn killer. Good shooting D Rock.

Maturity is when you have the power to destroy someone who did you wrong but instead you breathe, walk away, and let life take care of them.

Got this pretty boy yesterday. Missed the first time, but he came back for more, so I gave it to him.
