First yote
 

I finally called a coyote in today. I've been tryin for the last year and after takin some of ur guys advice i finally got one. I wanted to go this mornin but i didn't get much sleep last night so when i did wake up and got all the chores and thjings around the house done it was the whole day for huntin. I got out there at about 2:20 and waited for ten minutes before i started calling. i started with a lone coyote/wolf. after doin that a few times i hit the cottontail destress twice. About half way through the third sequence i looked up and saw him comin right for me about 30 yrds out( mind u this is michigan and 60 yrds would be a long way to see). I wistled for him to stop when he got in an opening but he never stopped and dissappeared behind a tree. A couple seconds later he popped back out in the same opening and i gave him a 55 grain 30 06 through the lungs. He dropped right there but got back up and stumbled 10 more yrds before expireing. It was a little male that had mange from his tail to his shoulders( not a pretty site) but i didn't care. I've hunted alot of different things and that's got to be up with the top hunts. It was awesome!

Yote
 

Glad ya got him.. Saved him a really miserable death...and got you all excited about huntin them yotes again. Get some more of 'em...way too many yotes out there :D

Congratulations!

Getting the occasional mangy coyote out of the population does the individual and the rest of them a favor.

One of the keys to good coyote calling is having real faith that it works. Your whole approach to it will be more effective if you know they *will* come if they hear it and you have been undetected. You now have that advantage.

I find calling a very exciting way to hunt. We have tried to encorporate it into all our big game hunting too.

Congrats on the hunt. Where you located in Michigan? Just carious ;)

Varmintsniper I'm just northwest of grand Rapids in the hure town of conklin.... Population about 20. lol

Is there somewhere near Marne (sp) I think Marne is more east? I bought one of my dirtbikes up there in the spring. I need to get out and start calling.

Cangrats on your first yote. I have only killed one and that was with my muzzleloader. But lately ive been trying to stick with my bow or shoot em with my pellet gun which is a gamo shadow 1000. Keep killin em.
