This coyote was the first one I have ever wanted to keep for myself as a hide. He was a good sized yote with a lot of black on his back. He is also one of the fluffiest coyotes I have ever killed.
The local handy man just pulled up and was going to do some work on the dryer vent. I walked out to meet him and saw a coyote out in the front pasture moving along. I slammed the door and ran back in side and grabbed the closest gun. One of my older night hunting rigs. I went fly out the door and he said what are you doing. I think he thought I was going to shoot him :chuckle: I said I am going to shoot a coyote.
I found the coyote and he was just over 400 yards. Most of the time I won't shoot at them that far because I hate educating them. Close to my hose is where I make the exception. There are better choices for 400 yard coyote shots then the 223. So I get settled into a rest on the fence. Right when I get ready to shoot the guy comes walking up from behind me and says you ain't going to hit him, he is to far. I get lined up and wiff him but just a little high.
The guys laughs and the coyote runs a little closer not knowing where the shot came from. He stops at 370 and I get lined in. Bang center punch and he goes to spinning. The guy says wholly "bad word" you got him. He spins for a few seconds then stops and I punch him threw the shoulders. I look back at the guy and his jaw is hanging.
He said I don't want to piss you off. I said then you better do a good job on the dryer vent :chuckle: We both busted up laughing. So with the story and as pretty as his coat is I decided he can hang around here for awhile.
