Congrats on the deer harvest!

IMHO you screwed up big time by letting the Coyote walk! I believe that you could have killed it, quietly reloaded and still seen the turkeys and harvested the deer. Never let a coyote get past.

If you had been hunting my property or any property that my family owns or hunts, it would have been your last hunting visit.

In the last week my brother has killed 6 coyotes within 200 yards of his dairy barn. one was shot out the window of his home at midnight in the light of the calving yard. the previous night 1 calf of a set of twins was killed most likely as the cow gave birth to the second calf. the dead calf was 1/2 eaten by morning when found.

It doesn't matter to us what your hunting, Coyotes get maximum effort to Kill when seen PERIOD.
