[QUOTE="DSheetz, post: 1961613, member: 91783"] You meet as may interesting people as you do coyote when you do control work . I got a call one evening from a guy that told me he had found the den and took it and the female coyote but the male was hard to get . He said that he had been trying for two weeks every day and still couldn't get him but it was killing at least a lamb every night . I set up to meet him in a couple of days from the call . I got out there to his place we visited and I told him I couldn't promise him any thing but would try for him . He said he would show my where the pasture was that the coyote was killing . He had a dodge ram with a flat bed loaded down with all sorts of rattling banging stuff on it , it was bright blue and silver with duel exhaust coming up behind the cab and was a diesel to boot . I'm pretty sure that I couldn't have sneaked up on a deaf , dumb and blind coyote driving that truck but it sure looked nice . I followed him out to the pasture we got to the gate going into the pasture where he pointed to a ridge told me the den had been on the back side of it in a valley then left me to hunt . I walked over and got set up in some rocks just over the top of it . I glassed the valley there was some grease wood patches and a draw in the bottom of it . after about a half hour I let out a few lamb blats and saw movement to my left in one of the grease wood patches he moved to the edge of the patch and peeked out I did a couple more low blats . He came on a trot when he was around 75 yards out he stopped I shot he spun clockwise several times then got lined out heading for the draw . I had hit him in the right shoulder .
