I was just outside, I have floodlights that shine up into the field behind my grandparents house(where Im staying) and There's a possum on the porch eating the cat food.... so what do I do? Grab my bow.
He shoots off under the porch and i look up into the field and I see something up in the brushy fenceline... I figured a bedded fawn, as they were there last night.
Upon looking closer... (were talking uphill about 70yrds in the dark with a porch floodlight) Its moving.. but not scared.... I run through the house, grab my solor-powered night vision binos' and he's already moved too far for me to get a confirmed look.... But didnt "run" just moved...? But what i did see of him was pointed ears and just the overall look of a yote. I pretty much know the dogs that run around here and Ive never seen one like him and he deffinately kept his distance.
Soassume this was a yote. and You wanna put the hit on it. How would you do it. I have pics of a yote behind my house about 5 miles up the road also, so the tactics given will be used in both places. I dont even know if it's legal to bait yotes... ?? What would you guys do. And I do have neighbors "around" so I really dont wanna use anything that squals like a hungry 2 year old. Oh and I'd probably shoot him with my .17, but if it keeps my post here, You can pretend I said bow....
