I had a nice coyote come slinking out of the woods approx. 50 yards to my left around 3:00 opening day. I watched it walk about 100 yards out then turn around and start to head back to the woods. At about 70 yardsit spotted me and started to run back in the woods. I shotit about 50 yards out running to the woods. I hitit in the hind legs and spunit around.It got back up and started running in circles like a dog chasingits tail. I put a second slug inits side and it was down for the count. I had one walk under my stand before sun up and stop about 20 yards straight ahead of me. I lit it up with my flashlight but didn't shoot it. There sure are lots of them out there. Here is a picture of the one I shot. The landowner was happy so I guess I earned my hunting privleges for this year!
