Title: First Coyote for my son and he gets 2.
Post by: bikenut64 on March 29, 2010, 10:15:26 AM: Well Saturday took my son out coyote hunting. Maybe 100 yards from truck we come out of woods to a clearing. See a coyote 200 yards up the line. Had my son get in position as coyote went into some thick bushes. Couple minutes later before I even called he comes back out in open. Trotting across the line and I woof at him. Totally ignores me so I woof really long and loud. He stops broadside and my boy shoots. So he's down and I start ki ying on a call and about 5 minutes later his girlfriend comes into clearing. So I woof at her and nothing. So I did a long siren howl and she stops and he shoots. Long story short was a good day for us. Paced the shots and the male was 176 and the female was 165 yards. Male was a very big old one and the female about 1/2 his size and very small.

We own 2 handi rifles and a partner shotgun. Really like them all. My daughter is ordering the 22.250 bull barrel so she can hunt with us this summer during college break. I only paid 170.00 for the 204 Ruger at Sportsmans Warehouse when they had a sale. It has been worth it for sure.

Congrats to your son.

Young eyes and steady nerves with great instruction from Dad is a sure recipe for a good shooter. My kid always amazed me when he was little. He still shoots great at 30 yrs old now.

GunsAmerica has one with thumbhole stock 24" 22-250 bull barrel for 319.00. I bought a laminated thumbhole stock from Boyds and we are putting it on this weekend and camo painting the gun and scope up. I really like the feel of the thumbhole stock.

I taught her to shoot when she was little but she has never hunted so we'll see how she likes it.
