Coyote hit the dirt!
 

My girlfriend and I went out the other night and located some coyotes. Last night I looked at the weather and saw that by 9 am the wind will be close to 15mph so I figured I would try to make a stand or two at daylight. I headed back to the place where we located these coyotes. I sprayed myself down and walked in, with the wind coming from the ESE I had a dirt road on my down wind side so if a coyote came from the down wind side I would see it. Then I had some thick pines to the front. I was sitting where the wind was blowing from my right to my left. I started out on my diaphragm call with some lone howls after about three minutes I switched out diaphragms and started doing cottontail in distress. After the second sequence of calling I look to my left and what would you know a coyote snuck in and was 10 yards from me. This coyote happened to sneak in the small part of woods the was between us and the road. I raised my shotgun up and shot once and the coyote started running after that I let out two more shells of 4 buck and finally saw the coyote roll. First one for the year... Not to bad. Pictures below I also included some pictures of where I hunt (NW Florida).

Shotgun kill too - Congratulations !!!

Keep up the good work................and have FUN !

Thanks and it was a blast my heart was pounding just as if a big buck step out while I had my bow. All the scouting I have done over the last two months paid off. Saturday was the small game opener so today was the first day I actually got to hunt.
