this a cool post--reason i say this is because tuesday my neighbor was up around the area where i shot my deer, he shot at coyote, he said he only saw one but the traks are all over up there. he shot at it but missed, he said it was moving rite along at a good clip and that he only had two shells. Two years ago my brother shot and killed one out behind his inlaws house, in small sotwood patch when it decided to charge at him. my bro said it was about 50 ft away when he noticed it, thats just too close for a surprise like that. he said it didnt seem to be acting rite so he shot it.. srry if this seems to be so long .
