RE: coyote and arrows
You just cat trust those dang coyotes! Down here we have fireants and if you don't get down right away the arrow will be covered with the little @%%$@@'s. Then there are these real big "carpenter" ants that could very well haul off an arrow. We stuck some empty .25 cal. brass into one of their holes and about an hour or so later they had removed both of them and hauled them off somewhere.
