The only time I coyote hunt is when Im deer hunting and am not seeing anything and one of those buggers walk by. A couple years ago I made a great shot with my Slug gun at about 60 yards....Real nice looking coyote too, great fur and weighed around 60 lbs or so....
After carrying the coyote out of the area I was hunting I decided that I will probably never do that again since I have 2 Siberian Huskies and 1 Alaskan Malamute.....looked ALOT like one of them....

Oh, and by the way, I was told by quite a few people that lots of coyotes died this year as a result of a type of heart worm around here in central IL, and I havent seen one all season...

Here is why I cant shoot them anymore tho, notice the antler that one has in front of her.
