Went out this morning to scout. Had no idea I was anywhere near the birds. ended up having them fall in my lap. 2 seconds later a coyote jumped out and ran through the middle of them and sent them into the next county. The coyote ended up scenting me and moving out. He stopped in the middle of the field. So I tried doing a mousy sound against my hand, He ended up coming right back to me at about 40 yards. All I had was my 22 auto pistol. I thought what the heck. 3 quick rounds, 2 hits, and one dead coyote. I went back later, saw the turks movin back in, And what happens. Midday, another coyote ran right through them. Couldnt get the second one close enough! Pesty buggers. Last year opening morning, same place the birds hit the ground out of range and a bobcat jumped out right on a big tom, the tom put up a good fight, but lost. Ya think Id pick a better spot. Oh well, we will see what tommorow brings.

Sounds like a good spot to me. double dip on varmits and a Turkey.

Sounds to me like you should be using lead BBB for turkey hunting! That would knock a yote down flat at 40 yards!

Congrats on whackin the yote, sounds like a good spot to me aswell. I dropped a yote last year opening weekend aswell. I always say a good yote is a dead yote. Good luck to ya in the AM.
