Less than 2 minutes later BOOM! I hear the roar of a shotgun followed by the scream of a fox. I tell Weev to get ready and then I start calling. Nice big furred out female coyote, too.Ī few stands later we had crawl into a deep canyon and I just knew that a fox was going to come in. He shoots and misses, but then makes up for it when he dumps her running away at about 70 yards. Lesson Re-Learned: hit 'em until they stop moving.Ī few stands later another coyote comes in, full steam ahead, and then comes to a halt about 30 feet in front of Weev. It took a second for my brain to realize that the coyote was the same one that was supposed to be dead! I jumped up and tried to head him off as I ran into the brush, and I could hear him thrashing around in the leaves, but after quite a while of searching in near impassable brush, we couldn't find him. I'm scanning the area when I catch some movement - it's a coyote running away from the stand and into the thick brush. Coyote goes down, moves around a little, and then lays there for about 5minutes, moving around a little every now and then but not really that active. On the first stand a coyote came in pretty quick and pretty fast, and I shot it with the shotgun. It's been awhile since I had some free time to get out and hunt - this season has been hard on me because I haven't hunted as much as I usually do! Finally I had the chance to go yesterday and I took a rookie named Weev along with me.
