This was a feature in the last Deer & Deer Hunting magazine. Happened in souther OK. Little, scrawny coyotes at that. We get 50lb+ coyotes regularly in PA. I've seen one weighed in at 68lbs at the local coyote tournament that the fire dept holds. I've lost two archery deer to coyotes and my 9 year old son just lost a big 8-pointer this year to them.

I would shoot as many as I could if I would ever see them when I'm out hunting. They start howling around quitting time and start moving after dark. I've tried calling them in at night but it's so thick where we hunt that they always manage to circle downwind before we see them.
