The ruger vt needs another notch in the stock. 40 grain nosler this time. I used a tally-ho call on this dandy pale pooch. Stopped him about 80 yards, before he had a chance to boogie.Don

huntsman22-- That is a fine looking coyote. Silky and pale--that would be a nice fur to start a coyote coat out of. Now all you need is what, about 8 or 10 more!!
Did you make a head shot on that one? I see blood up on the head above the ear in the photo.
