[QUOTE="ShootnMathews, post: 875647, member: 59915"] Thought I was going to have to pull one off my buddy one day. Set up the caller on the edge of a field and we were on a little knoll in the edge of the trees. We split up wih him facing off he right side of the knoll and I was facing down the field longways. We were approx. 30 feet apart. Only called maybe 2 minutes when I saw one coming from about 350 yards. It 's path told me if I waited it would pass closer to my friend so I held my shot. My buddy was looking down at the call controller and did not see the yote cross the creek 100 yards in front of him and continue up the ridge behind us. I turned to throw a stick at my buddy to get his attention, as I was curious to why he didn't shoot. Out of the corner of my eye I saw movement, it was the yote running down the point behind us, running right at us. We were both sitting in small depressions in the snow with just our chest and up visible. The yote was running directly at my buddy. I thought it may have seen his head move and assumed it was the source of the noise. I seriously thought the yote was going to jump on his back. I leaned my rifle against a tree in front of me and started to run towards him to pull it off of him. He heard it coming when it was only a few feet away and jumped. It must have scared the yote just as much and it ran right past him and turned on the afterburners crossing the field. My buddy fired his 22-250 and missed and shot again just barely creasing it's back right above the spine only catching skin. By this time I had made it back to my rifle and had just got it in the scope as his shot creased it. The impact of his shot made the yote slip in the snow, a fatal mistake, and my 7.62x54 ballistic tip nearly cut him in half.
