Another really nice pic. bhw!! I've never called at night, I enjoy my sleep too much I guess!
I teamed up with a local friend in whats known as the Mid-west calling championship contest this weekend. We lost access to a ranch that we had intended to hunt, and hunted last year, so last weekend, it was a scramble to find places to call. Thought we'd do pretty good, but didn't have the action we had hoped for. Of course, isn't that the case so often. We did manage to see 9 coyotes, all of which came to the call. Killed 4, one with a shotgun, badly wounded one, again with the shotgun, and really should've killed 8 of the nine. Poor shooting![:@]Of the 4 we got, I got 2 and my partner got 2. We didn't even go back for check in, as we had decided that 6 was our minumum for making the long trip, figuring that it would take 6, probably 7 to place in the money. Haven't heard the results yet though. Had a stroke of unbeleivable luck, one of mine was a kill shot on a runner at a lazered 432 yards with my .204. Luck, nothing but luck[8D]. But then I had a stroke of bad luck and hit a strand of barbed wire that was between me and a standing coyote that was held up at 300 yards.[:@]Got lots of good excercise! SO, I guess, there's always next year to get in the money.
