[QUOTE="Reemty J, post: 2091975, member: 113694"] Went out yesterday and HE blessed me better than I deserve.... saw 10 coyotes, of that 8 of them were in a stubble field that is rife with canals, topography, and deer/ mice. Tried calling a coyote early on, with some challenge howls, no luck. Slowly drove to the large field and saw one coyote running from the road 500 yards away, that was second one spotted. Sat and glassed the field, keep in mind it is 2 sections and it joins other fields and rolling hill. Saw one coyote about a mile out, got my gear and headed up the same canal as Monday. Always run across coyotes when ever I stalk this area. As I got to where that coyote was could not locate but 600 yards away straight north a pair was laying just over a rise and the wind was out of the southeast, no idea how I walked past them without them smelling me. Close to a mile northwest I glassed a pair and they had a single East of them 100 yards....I spend a long time glassing and making a stalk plan. A mile and a little more west I could see another loner laying in the neighbors stubble, potential stalk later in the day. Moved north to get at the pair that was 600 yards away, got within 200 yards was glassing looking for them and got busted they took off heading East. So I glassed the three that were northwest keep in. Mind I am 600 yards closer and the female winded me her and the male went west and the single sat and watched them for a while and then started heading my way😳 it was nip and tuck if it would hit the wind but it kept coming, at 307 yards it started going east and stood broadside, ka-Pow, DRT..was a young male real white....walked back got pickup drove out got coyote and started up the east side of the large field, 200 to 300 deer out there and just north of them I spot that pair I bumped first 700 yards off road in a stubble crease, keep driving north get behind a hill 1/2 mile away and work back on top of them.

So I have 3 coyotes and think all of sudden I am smart😳😳😔 well HE has a way to keep us humble ..... that lone coyote that was better than a mile away to the west, well I drove all around to the west side and it was beautiful, wind out of the southeast a canal within possibly 200 to 300 yards so I walked 500-600 yards East in the canal, glassing every 50-75 yards and what the heck I see that coyote laying in the stubbling fast asleep head on the ground......I get with 100-120 yards and climb out prone with bipod and lip squeak that coyote lifts it head and looks at me, put the cross hairs under its chin a little tho the right, bang coyote runs away over a rise😳😳 I go look at its bed thinking what the heck, I find a handful of long fur, and that coyote was laying in a depression I shot over its ribs or back and sheered it some......lesson here, WAIT till they stand up😔😔 there you have it was still a great day for me......... in that 5 mile by 3-4 mile area I have 20 killed so far........tons of kill pits and great habitat [/QUOTE]
