I was hunting out side of Lawton Oklahoma about 3 weeks ago. I hadn't heard a single gobble so when I saw a cyote about 150 yards away I was ready for a show. He was very curious and I could tell he wanted my decoy but he was just a little cautious. After about 10 minutes of trying to make up his mind he came charging in. That was what I was wanting until I realized that I had 3 silent toms working their way across the feild about 80 yards away from me. When the cyote made it to my decoy I shooed him away with a few leg kicks. He took off across the field to the west. I continued calling and brought the birds within about 40 yards when all off a sudden another cyote shot out across in front of me from the east. He made it all the way to my decoy before I could shoo him away. I dont' know how I was able to get rid of the cyotes with out scaring the toms but I came home with a 21 pound gobbler with a 10 inch beard. With two cyotes I still got the birds in for a 7 yard shot. I was amazed at the excitement of that morning.
