left early this am for a quick tour before i started working on a garage i'm building 15 miles north of town. was just getting shooting light and i was talking to Dcoy on the phone while driving. seen a coyote going across a section heading to an abandon tree grove. when it was close to the grove, i drove up but it seen me comming and headed back the way it came from.i knew it was gonna head for the refuge which is a mile 1/2 away so i got over there and sure nuff, it crosses the road in front of me doing mach 8. i bailed out, slipped on the road, dropped my rifle, got the bipod down a drilled it right betwwen the lips. not the ones on its face either
at about 250 straight away
. could'nt tell if it was a male or female as the bullet took out everything where things should be
. was'nt till later when i looked more closly when i seen where the bullet went right up the.......... for a mn coyote its a beaut.tahn i was about 1 mile from my job talking to Lyonch on the phone when i seen a fox bedded next to a cottonwood tree. i thought someone had set the fox there as it was only about 70-80 off the road. i told Lyonch to "hold the line" as i got my rifle out. while looking at it through the scope i could see 1 hind leg streached out and it lokked odd but just to make sure, i barked and its head came up
the bullet hit it right behind the head
big male with a great hide. we need to talk more often on the phone guys.. your good luck
went to work and was shingling and my nailgun fell off the roof and broke a spring in the trigger. so...........
. figgered i might as well go out and see if i can kill something else. seen a fox sleeping way out. snuck up to about 60 yards. light out. a small rubbed male.went a few miles and see 2 fox out at the 3/4 mile mark. stopped and was watching them through the spotting scope and in the same field of veiw anoyher 1/2 past them was a coyote in a stubble corn field. . i decided i wanted the coyote first so i drove to a grove of trees to park and strapped on the snowshoes. was an easy sneak but long (about 1.25 miles) but worth it
a small male but another nice one. about a 200-225 yard standing broadside i called Lyonch as i was retrieving it to rub it in
and on the way back dragging the coyote, Dcoy calls.. never woulda thought a cell phone would bring such luck.......
and then there was a time i was heading to bear camp talking to Tbush.
... oh well, i miss sometimes
back roads and such. 
now they are extinct. when i was a kid i used to walk that ditch with a shotgun and killed a pile of them.. i'm afraid those days are gone 
. you'll see my ugly mugg in 3 weeks
