I have spent more 2oz #5 turkey shells on coyotes than turkey in the last few years. Blitzed one at day break on Sunday. Surprisingly, less than 20 minutes after the shot and death howls, two big gobblers came racing to my calls.
My daughter didnt' get a shot off, but it was the first time she's seen one called in and the first bird in put on the full show strutting straight towards us, spitting and drumming every 2 or three steps. So close to success, she moved just before he went behind a large poplar, and he was not going to tolerate that!
She seemed to have as much, or more, fun poking around the 40's plymouth and 1919 Dodge we were sitting amoungst after the birds skee- daddled - it was a great morning.
P.S.> good for you guys for still getting out there... I am still sitting on the ground- actually back to sitting on the ground as my children have my typical pads and cushions...
