Located a pair of coyotes right at dark on Wednesday night. Friday at 9:30 in the morning while checking traps I went back to the area I thought they had been and got this female to come in for a peek. Hit her at 196 yards, got her to stop before getting into the rocks.

Jamie, That is some nice looking country. Looks pretty Catty to me. Do you have your residency established yet in Wyoming? I take it this is where you shot that coyote and the picture.

Lots of cats back here. I have caught 5 out of this area with a dozen or so coyote sets. A cat trapper would clean up. There is a 60' - 80' drop off right here to the bottom of this old waterfall. pretty dry now but would have been pretty neat to see back in the day. Finally got this coyote to howl when I was close enough to get a good feel for where her and her mate have been hanging out. She looked over her shoulder once and I would have like to have waited tosee if he would come in but I did not have enough time. She was going to get into the rocks and I would not have a shot until she was on top of me. Left the shotgun at the truck. After I shot her I called for about 15 - 20 minutes longer but he never showed. He is not going any where and if I get time this week I will go see if I can get a poke at him.

Nice work buddy

And i have to agree don't just sit and dream about when deer season is over and get nothing done. Paint a gun, practice shooting, Locate on nights that its calm, build snares its endless a guy always has something he should be doing.
