FINALLY
So i woke up this morning about an hour before sunrise. I walked about a half mile behind my house and sat where i seen coyote tracks and scat. So i sat down and had the call going and no lie it wqas probably 30 seconds and this coyote comes running at me. I was shaking bad and i put my .22 pump in ready position within seconds this coyote was 12 yards away. BOOM i shot he ran i thought i missed then BOOM i took another shot missed then all of sudden THUMP she dropped. I was so happy i called everyone haha all excited and i just stood up and she took off i was in shock so i started shooting remember this is a .22 pump iron sights. I hit her again in her neck then she stood up like nothing was wrong and ran i couldnt believe this so i followed her and found her laying in between two rocks(1st picture) but she wasnt done she tried running but i put a shot right in her head she was done now i sat down because i chased her a good 200 yards and i just relaxed and stared at her in shock that i just killed a freaking coyote i was so pumped. She is big i think so anyways. I carried her forever my ams are killing me . I want to get her mounted but dont know where to go can anyone help me at all? I will have more pics later my ma needs to help me with them but these are from my phone. By the way i called her in with a johnny stewart electronic call.

Re: FINALLY
Congratulations:
Sounds like you worked your call pretty good if the dog came running.
Did you skin her out?
Keep it up

Re: FINALLY
Good job. Is this your first coyote? There ain't nothing like your first one.
I still remember mine and it was 38 years ago.
You are hooked now and live in a great place to be a caller.
Even the pro's have a hard time calling one this time of year.
Try it come next Sept. and watch 'em come running.
Oh and get a bigger gun, coyotes can take a lot of killin.

Re: FINALLY

Re: FINALLY
Congrats! Ya its probaly a good idea to get a more powerful gun so you have less runners.
