Thanks everyone.

I cleaned the bird at the farm and didn't get to weigh him. His spurs were just a tad over 1 1/4 and his beard was 10 inches. I called him in about 200 yards from where I killed the coyote. The yote had caused the birds near us to fly back up, so we moved to a new spot.

Brice, my dad hasn't hunted much lately but he will hunt the coyotes hard right after we mow the native grasses in early May. I let a guy trap this year and he got 5 out for me. I had one trail cam pic with six in it just before he trapped.

Redarrow, I just happened up on that shed while we were moving. It is the oldest looking one I have ever seen - definitely not from this spring. My dad loves finding sheds, so I gave it to him later that day. He was really happy. The shed came from a relative's land that borders my farm where we have permission to hunt. Even though I run cameras all year long, I don't recall seeing that particular deer.

Here are the deer that me and my son took last fall. His during ML season and mine during rifle season:

Thanks Kevin,

I haven't been around much lately. Even though I still love turkey hunting, I am now more into deer hunting and deer habitat building. I do quite a bit of posting on deer forums these days. Good to hear from you, and I will try to drop by more often.

I'd have to say dead toms are 1st on my list and dead yotes are a close 2nd?? :thumbup:

Regardless, congrats on the great pics of success and all your efforts into habitat rewarded!! :thumbup: :thumbup: :cheers:
ever wonder where the white goes when the snow melts??

Yote with fawn rsz.jpg
Was hunting with an old NWTF forum poster and your name came up regarding coyotes. We're working on one that seems to have a taste for fawns.
