I have been having troublehttp://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r491/Philipgoldwing/cayotepics003.jpg with my leg being real sore but it was such a fine morning I decided to head into the woods and see if I could hobble to my treestand. If not I would hunt wherever I petered out at. Well, to my surprise I made it to the stand. I sat for about 3 hours and saw just a couple of squirrels. Finally around 9:30 I caught movement to my left. I looked and saw what looked like a brown/black dog heading my way. It was moving cautiously about 20 feet and would stop and look around then move 20' and do the same. No collar...this has got to be a coyote! Now should I shoot it or not. Hell, I was getting hungry and bored. After it got to me and went behind my stand I got up, took off the safety and got on it. I guess it was about a 30 yard shot and on the money. It stumbled about 20 yards, flopped and laid still. I stayed in the stand for another hour then went and got it. Nice looking yote! It was a female so hopefully I may have saved some fawns for next year. It was shot with my 45 cal. muzzleloader.

Congrats on the coyote. Never killed one but seen a few. You going to get it mounted?

Thanks guys. Part of me wanted to but I have 3 deer heads mounted and they just hang there collecting dust and it costs so much also. Now if I happened to shoot a bobcat, that would be a tough decision. My neighbor skinned it out and is gonna do the hide up.

I tried to post the pic again. Someone please let me know if it came up. I don't know what I'm doing wrong but it sure is aggravating.

thanks again Jeff. I have no idea what I am doing wrong. I tried to post it on KBF too and I don't think it went up. Why do they make it so difficult.
