Save a Turkey - Shoot a Yote

This morning I took my annual walk up the road and noticed the coyote tracks coming right out of my own property and crossing into the woods across the road so when I got back I decided to go for a hunt. We can just start to walk the fields here and after all the fun I had at the sportsmen show howling and kikiing entertaining the general public on the mouth call I thought as the day was nice and it was cool that I would try a setup or two before I get going with the day.

The first setup was the ticket, as I sat I started with howling on the mouth call and then waited for about 3-4 minutes and started a squealing as a distressed rabbit. I did that for a 4-5 segments and then stopped and waited about 10-15 minutes and did another squealing about 30 seconds and stopped. As I sat there staring out in the field thinking that maybe they are back in deep I decided to try again and out of the corner of my eye running at mach #1 comes running a yote and right at me. I waited still and she kept coming and at 40 yards locks it up and turns and heads back. I followed her with the 270wsm and as she slowed for a second look BANG and down she goes.

I was frigin excited to see a female as this may stop some of the population for sure or slow it down anyway.

Here's the setup and the yote where it dropped on the left

Song, the first yote was ok hit him in the front and the silver ballistic tips were perfect, but this second one was not good. As it was running away I hit her in the high side and it ripped her good.

I only wish there was a bounty on them here dontget1
