It started off with a 5 hour drive south here in MT. Conditions were almost perfect. Overcast and 12 degrees with 5mph wind. Me and my good calling buddy set a goal that morning to get a few coyotes but what we really wanted was a "double"....
Which takes us to our last stand of the day. We set up above a prairie dog town just below some rim rocks. We started out with a long female howl, waited a few minutes and let out "submissive" on the foxpro. My buddy later turned and said (Pair) to our left. They were to our left alright but around mile and a half away. But, they kept coming in on a rope. Their pale fur made them appear to be albino as they ran across the dark brown terrain. As the pair disappeared, we shifted 20yards to our right to be in a better shooting position.
As they reappeared I said to my buddy, " when they get to around 200 yards I will stop them". I barked and they stopped. But in a straight line with each other. Chris said he would take the first one. As we settled our crosshairs, Chris began to count. 1.....2...... BOOM! And I have to say! What I saw in my scope at that very second was the sweetest thing I have witnessed during my 12 years of calling coyotes! I didn't see just one coyote (tense up and tip over backwards) but 2!!! Man oh man was that cool to see through my scope. By the way, they tipped over at 201 yards
We each shot one more earlier that day at just over 300 yards. Made for a fantastic hunt and one that we will be reliving for some time.
Thanks for reading and hope it wasn't too long of a story...
