Another Good Day
Posted: Sun Jan 03, 2010 8:36 pm
Today Optimax, CooperAI and I got an early start.
First stand as we were getting settled CooperAI spotted a coyote coming over the hill around 600Yds out(PERFECT)
Couple minutes later Optimax sent a 55Gr V-Max @ 3580 FPS home for a good shot on this nice female.
Picture was taken after the last stand....
We made six stands total here are the highlights.
Coyotes were spotted on every stand but one !
We walked in snowshoes to within 250YDS and 100YDS of sleeping coyotes. The wind was blowing but not that hard.
The 100YD Coyote was a female that poped out of a slough right in front of us during the first series. She gave me a good angle and I sent a 50Gr V-Max into her chest @ 3850FPS She was yawning and stretching so I guess coyotes sleep pretty deeply.....
The 250YD coyote came out of a hole we didn't see until I started the first series. (we don't have a picture of that one)
The day started out with light snow and 5 deg. wind out of the SE @ 10 to 15
Last stand wind had almost stopped still flurries and 8 deg.
Another good day!!
