Cranked this wolf in December, although it is a rifle kill.

Dang Pat, I can't believe you would put such an uncouth thing on the Bowsite. That's worst than a live coyote in a leg trap. lol mike (but awesome)

I cheated and used a shotgun but I also had my 11, 10 and 7 year olds with me. That coyote was obviously deaf and blind.

if all goes well in the next 2 days finishing my basement ill be heading out early next week for a weeklong coyote trapping trip, hopefully some good pictures pending...

last night I watched a special on coywolfs / coyotes on a public station ,, they were doing research in very urban areas most interesting how the coyotes does so well among humans ,, how most folks have no clue they are even around them .. It seems a losing battle to control these critters , more u kill the bigger there litters can become !! Up in Canada they showed a large coywolf just sitting there watching the kids paly ball everyday .. I bet that coywolf is just trying to figure out how he can make a kill !!!

we managed two with the bow with the help of the FoxPro ,, we didn't invest much time maybe a few hours total ,, we had a nice double come in but they were past my effective arrow range of 200 yards ...lol Southern Az is a predator hunters dream !!!!

nice......I'd take a 200 yarder at yote any day......my slider goes to 120 (vanes hit the sight past that) ....stack'em from there... they won't die if you don't shoot...I killed one last fall with a .17 HMR @ 180......probably had just as good of a chance with my bow.
I don't care what I have with me.....if I see a yote, I'm sending one his way.

MTcountryboy Im with u I have a lot of respect for the coyote!!!! natures ultimate survivor, but I love shooting at them and trying to kill them ,at the same time ,coyotes have a place in our ecosystem but its up to us to control that place !!!!!
I devote this thread in memory of the devil dog below HAHAHAHAH talk about tough !!

I killed one 297 yards with my old 6mm propped up on a rickety medal fence post. I know that might not be impressive to a hard core rifle shooter, but it was unbelievable to me. I never even practice with a gun and never in my life practice a shot like that.

I'm a huge fan of getting rid of those predators too! Haven't had much luck with the fox pro, but the trap line is active! Wish our trapping season didn't end tomorrow but I'll keep trying with the call.

Calling in a coyote to bow range is intense! (story and more pics at link)

This one was unlucky. His brother ( cousin ? ) got into the brush after I shot him, but he's dead too, 'cause I saw the buzzards fly up today.

This is an old thread, but we might as well keep it going.
Got 21 so far off the snare line, including this one missing a rear wheel.

I knew it was an old thread, but when I did a search I wasn't finding the more current one. I just decided to resurrect this one.
Any signs of why that coyote's leg was missing?

You gotta respect a predator that can survive and adapt with only three legs. Love them or hate they are a survivor.
From: sticksender
25-Jan-15
spike78, I agree they are amazingly durable animals. I don't love or hate them, I just know their numbers need to be controlled like any other species.
Greg Kush, no the leg was missing starting about halfway down the femur, and was healed up clean. Otherwise he looked healthy with a nice pelt. It's anybody's guess what might have happened. Might've been shot.
A few days later I caught yet another one with a bum leg, pic below. His left rear leg was mangled and drawn up tight to the hip.
I don't know of anybody hunting yotes around here, but I think these dogs have huge territories. They could've been shot 5-10 miles from here. Or hit on the highway.

A slick summertime Alabama yote. The 6mm loaded with 58gr blister tips will put some serious stank on em.
From: bigdog21

jtv they will move when food source gets low. sometime just a few miles but they will be back happens a lot where I live good coyote population then there gone but in a couple years seems they come back.
From: spike78

A 58 grain in a 6mm? Hows the 6 compared to 243? Looks like no pelt damage either. Nice.
From: drycreek
25-Jan-15
A6mm and a .243 are basically the same. Good coyote rounds for good coyotes !

Man I thought this was an ARCHERY SITE. you guys are killing me I've been killin em for years with a gun, come on and Man up do it with a BOW. (LOL) Heres an example.....

If you are serious about thinning them out, use a gun. You will kill a lot more. By late season here in KS, you are lucky to call them into 200 yards in some areas.

Up to 23 now on the snare line here at my farm. Much slower going lately, but that was exactly the plan.

Yes, 6mm is basically the same as 243...slightly more case, bullet the same. The 58 gr barnes hollow point and the ballistic tips worked great coming out of the barrel at 3950. I never got an exit hole even on small grey fox which are the size of a medium size house cat. Killed one coyote at 297 yards. I'm not a gun guru and would rather shoot stuff with a bow but sometimes the coyote problems make me get the 6 out and mash a couple.

Didn't do as well as had hoped, but my trapping partner and I got four.
