Had a great morning a few weeks ago! After working out of state for the last 5 months I was itching to break out the calls again. Headed up to a spot that usually produces a couple this time of year. 1st stand at about the 4 minute mark had a double circling 100 yards out from the decoy. I put the crosshairs on the first and dropped him and never saw the 2nd again. Kept calling and at about the 7 minute mark had a hard charger that I stopped 5 yards from the decoy with a shot from my 6x68. Kept on calling and about 2 minutes later had one sneak in from upwind of the decoy and dropped it about 10 yards from the decoy. I was pretty excited at that point but kept calling. I decided to pull up my binos to see if I could spot any checking out the carnage from a distance when I caught movement by the decoy again. It was a 5th coyote responding to the call. It was on the retreat as I'm sure it smelled my scent at the decoy. I raised my rifle, got the crosshairs on him and was about the bark to get him to stop when he turned around about 25 yards out from the decoy and started barking up a fit. He must have been mad to see all his buddies laying around the decoy... One more shot and I had my 4th coyote down on the 1st stand of the day!
2nd stand was a blank
3rd stand I called in a pair from almost a mile away. The male came in first and I dropped him at 40 yards. About 5 minutes later his mate finally crept in but sat down at a distance and I let one sail to her as she trotted off only to send her into hyperdrive.
Overall one of my best solo trips to date and my first quad on a single stand!
