Sunday Night Again


Hunted Friday evening, all day Saturday, and Sunday morning. The hogs were busy on some other ranch rooting up a nice new winter wheat patch no doubt but I could not find any on our place.

But coyotes make good target practice too!

And rabbits.

It is a 470 NE. The load was 106 gr. of IMR 4831 with a Woodleigh 500 gr. soft.

There were two of them trotting across an opening I was watching. They stopped just as they entered the brush and were listening at some cows that were making noise in the woods. They were about 50 yards away when I shot.

He is a "best looking coyote" cause he is a dead yote! They like my quail too much. Looking at one as I type this out my office window. Sneaky little bugger. Pooped on my sidewalk.
