Default How do you handle coyotes while deer hunting.

Do you guys always shoot a coyote no matter what? Or does it depend on how the deer hunting is going? I was out today for our opening day of muzzle loader season. I had been seeing deer all morning. I also saw four coyotes. I know there were at least two as I saw them running together the last time. Not sure if exactly how many but I saw two separate coyotes early and then two running together later on. Two of them walked under my stand and I wanted to shoot them but I had already seen 3 bucks following a doe across the field in my direction. About 5 minutes after the coyotes went by I saw two of the bucks in a thicket about 20 yards from my stand. I didn't get a shot but at the time I was glad I didn't shoot the coyotes.
So what do you all do when you see a coyote while deer hunting?
