CA Desert Coyote (pics)

[BOHNTR]

Went out this morning in Mojave desert near my house with the hopes of calling in a coyote close enough to take with my bow and arrow. Figured it would be a good tune-up for next week's Arizona archery deer trip.

At the second stand area, this male yote came trotting on in looking for an easy meal.....one arrow at 18 yards did the trick! Coat was in pretty good condition for a change. Hope you enjoy.

Arrow after it passed through.....check out the splatter from the Wac'em head:

Very cool, Roy. That looks like a great coyote for a desert dog. Congrats.

Yes, you're ready for AZ!

Very nice. Now bring on a big mule deer.

Very nice. Now bring on a big mule deer.

If anyone can fill that request, BOHNTR is THE man. Some big old buck is walking the Arizona desert and has no idea he will not see 2011.

Truly a trophy with a bow.

Very cool. I just missed one the other day at 55 yrds. shot it for 50! Just got hair! :-(

Sweet Roy! The rut is starting to swing in the lower parts of AZ, you'll have a good hunt this January!!

Nice looking coyote. Just curious, what do most of you guys do with them after the kill. Looking to try my hand at them this winter as there were quite a few in the area I have been deer hunting.

Way to go Roy. I'm heading to Az as well.

Here is what I do with them. This covers my electrical panel in my game room. Ed F
