The tempature was coming up and the road was starting to get muddy so rather than lose favor with the rancher I headed back out to the highway. I tucked the Tacoma in below a cut-bank and worked my way up the ridge. I set the Fury and Jack Attack decoy about 200 yards below the rim. I moved 80 yards down below the caller into the edge of the brush but with a good view of the hillside this time. Fourteen minutes into the set a coyote comes around the hill from the north and stops to check Jack out. I pivot slightly to line up with it and he continues down the hill straight for Jack. He checks up again at 147 yards and that's close enough. My consolation coyote hits the ground! Not a huge coyote but a nice mature male.

As a side note, the 35 grain Berger exited out his back behind his shoulder. I seem to have a few more exits than normal going on with my pelt load. Suppose the bullets are slightly tougher in this lot of bullets or just bad luck? Anyone else have some variable results with the same laoding?
Anyway, nice day. Only had time for the five stands but it was nice to break the little dry spell I seemed to have been having.
Good luck out there.
