Coyote On Call.
      #89473 - 22/11/07 07:54 AM

From this morning's jaunt up the mountain.

Took a stand just below the crest of a steep, snowy, selectively-logged north slope and called this thing in. Later I found out my nephew first saw it jog by from his position to my right. It was below him on a trail about 200 yards away and moving. He got the critter in his scope but let it go as it was moving and passing thru brush. I was about 100 yards to the left of him on the other side of a ridgeline. The thing slithered along below me to about 160 yards and then hesitated on the trail long enough for me to shoot it with my chopped Ruger 6.5x55 carbine + 140 grain Prvi Partizan bullet handload.

Good performance of the bullet as it left only about a 1-inch exit hole which on a shoulder shot yote is all I want. Fur buyer says he'll take him. Hurrah, won't even pay the gasoline to town...



And another picture along the trail.

Sounds like a fun day!

Btw, if I didn't know better (and since we don't have coyotes), I could easily have believed those pictures were taken right near where I live.

Not the first time I've heard this and from some of the pictures I've seen of Norway I have trouble telling our stomping grounds apart myself!

Not to mention the number of -sen's & -sons that inhabit these parts.

And another picture just before the critter heads to the fur buyer...

Nice song dog. They are best dead.
