Steve, you really should share the details of that episode. A lot of us are wondering why you were aiming at the non-traditional end of the coyote. ![[Confused]](confused.gif)

NASA, give the poor guy a break.
There's absolutely nothing wrong with a guy aiming to get some tail.

Ok heres the story, Rich was calling and i seen one about a 75yrds out. I clucked and showed him the direction. As soon as i did a coyote came bustin in at 20yrds. I woofed him and decided since i had my sights set on the firstr yote i would just shoot his tail off. Catch and release. Trust me ,Rich and I could do some serious trouble makin if i hung out down there much....When we found that tail it was one of the best moments of my life. It was so fun to hear and seee Rich Higgins laugh at me. He said and i quote," Yoyu came all the way to arizona and all you got was a piece of tail".
It was alomost the end of one of my best predator day of my life. The end was 10 minutes later when we walked a hundred yrds further in and called another one in. I missed that sona bitch completly.. We seen 9 coyotes that day and i didnt kill one. It was such a good day! A very good day....The best predator huntin day of my life. Thats the story.

Certain factors such as pressure, heat, water, and food sources at certain times will cause the coyotes to concentrate in relatively small areas. Jay Nistetter and I called 19 coyotes by 11:00 AM in August a few years ago. Cotton fields. 110+ degrees.

My best was NE, 16 called, 7 killed. And yes, it is something you remember.
Steve,
I'd just go with it man. It takes a lot of talent to shoot the tip off a coyote's tail at any distance. As far as we're concerned, you did it on purpose.
Does that make him a PAK? He oughtta get some kind of special award for that.

Shooting their a** off is the object of hunting.
Shooting off their tail is an art form. Good hit nevertheless.

Wouldn't shooting tails off fall into the 'Harrassing Wildlife' catagory, much like hitting them with paint balls??
Heck of a shot at any rate!!!

AndyL and I shot a coyote simultaneously Saturday. Shot once with a .243 and once with a .204 I think (Andy?) He was still breathing when we found him after wading across a river in our bare mosquito covered feet and Tyler .38ified him.
Sunday, Tyler shot another with his .243 (I think)! Wierd thing though, we were hunting with Tyler Higgins but the coyotes came to an electronic of Andy's with some sort of African Hare distress.

Called in my only kill on Friday with a mouth call,whacked her at 240 yards....Saturday I was in the ag fields North of camp at first light.Walking back to the truck after my first stand ,I spotted a triple crossing the railroad tracks from one field to another a good 500 yards out.a couple notes on my mouth call brought 'em in,killing one.....
.22-243 Middlested/55 grain NBT's.Very little damage to the fur on these two,of course, one was a frontal shot.No follow up shots,seldom needed.They accounted for 2 in the stack at camp.

Good going, Chad.
I don't mean to be critical, but....that looks like Nevada, and those dogs aren't as furred up as I would expect for the end of October?
Thanks for sharing. How's that 204 working out?
Good hunting. LB

Leonard,
You are right it is Nevada.They were pretty furred up,might be because we just turned the hides fur side out for the picture.That .204 is still whacking them. My calling Partner(Brother) was using his 17 Rem. Not to bad for a couple sub-caliber callers.LOL Shot a couple more coyotes after this picture was taken but didn't take a picture.It was pretty cool in the Morning(Low 20's)but would get in the low 60's in the day.Good Hunting Chad

Hey Gary. I wish you had left your photos and story up.
You did extremely well, hunting in an area with a lot of pressure. My hat's off to you.
