The only time I called in a coyote was when I was doing hen clucks on a turkey call. He was too fast and I never even got a shot. No turkey either.About 30 years ago I was visiting family on some very remote property outside of Nevada City. About 300 acres, with maybe 5 or so tree stands. One afternoon my BIL was going to town for supplies while I took a nap. I gave him $20 to get some chicken legs. When he got back, I chummed those legs about 30-40 yards from the sturdiest stand. Finished my nap, got up a couple hours later and took my AR and Kimber and went to calling.
I got no response for about 15 minutes. Then, all the birds quit chirping and I started hearing the sound of something heavy crunching on the forest floor. I gave a couple more toots on the coyote call as I slowly turned towards the sound. The footsteps got faster, then stopped.
A few seconds later I saw a long tan/brown tail twitching. Never saw the body, just about 6" of the tail.
Exactly what I was thinking! Empty that clip and reload. That cat's not afraid of people, and he won't have to walk backwards for the rest of the hike.Should’ve shot to empty.
sounds like police training.....Should’ve shot to empty.
It is actually concealed carry training.sounds like police training.....
right.....never ever was trained to spray and pray in any CCW class I've been involved in....It is actually concealed carry training.
And I hope police do fire until empty, saves us taxpayers housing criminals at 100k plus a year.
Who said spray and pray?right.....never ever was trained to spray and pray in any CCW class I've been involved in....
I would have fired all my bullets except for one. That way when he starts eating me I can shoot myself in the head!
