 Just so I don't have to retype everything, I am going to C&P from another site. First was a single Friday night with a female invite! A female is what actually showed up though. Spotted two more later but both ran before we had time to setup and call.
Saturday morning right off the bat I called in a double. I am pretty sure I was using the Pure Predator call. First one I hit I just barely caught in the gut. Second one ran until I started playing the wounded coyote call.
Next set was crazy! Started with a challenge howl. Maybe a minute later I see two coyotes to the south of me coming in (I am facing east). I am watching them when I notice some movement from directly in front of me. Two more hauling the mail! Both sets were around 500-600 yards away when they noticed eachother and then the fight was on, or it seemed that way to me. The second group made a straight shot towards the first group and they (first group) turned and burned across the highway (south of me) with the second in hot pursuit! All of this in what had to have been less than 5 minutes. Now I have only made one call and figured after this fiasco that I should just get up and go, but being a smoker, lit one up and waited. Made another challenge howl close to 10 minutes and within another 2 or so minutes had another pair of coyotes coming in from my northeast! I did manage to get them in close enough to pop one. I'll be back in that spot next weekend!
I called three more in that day but only bagged two.
Sunday morning first set produced. Started off with some distress and saw nothing. Blew my version of the female invite and gave it the smoke test (had another cig). I was ready to get up and in fact did when I saw a coyote sneaking in. Dropped down into my hole and waited for it to show up over the hill. When it stopped on top of the hill, I gave him a little kissy kissy, but he was interested. Started to walk away when I barked and put him down. Rest of the day was a waste.

I'm a firm believer in the theory that if it bleeds, I can kill it.

Thanks, IA caller. I'm from SE Iowa, down by Mt.Pleasant. Man you just can't beat calling on the snow under a full moon. Thats where all three of these came from. One in Jan and the pair was in Febs full moon. Wish we had a little more snow to call the weekend, oh well.

.223 FP10, a double taken at 65 yds. 50 gr Vmax round. The other dog was way to messy for pics. Neck shot on her, went through and nailed the male in the hind quarters, then 2 more into him as he went running off before the 2nd shot took him in the skull.

 Forgot to put the gun in the picture, but it was my Savage Target Action in .243 AI.
