Here are some yotes I got over the last couple weeks or so. I would have more but I keep trying to get these little fuggers with my bow and end up wasting opportunities where I could have connected easily with my shotgun, but miss or fail to get off a shot woth my bow. All I got with my bow so far is a clump of hair I shaved off ones back...
A couple of the pics are crappy I really need to start thinking about shadows, and the sun and stuff before taking pics.... Oh well enough rambling here they are...
This guy I shot earlier this month, he came into yellowhammer distress tape when I was trying to call a bobcat. He came in after about 5 minutes and I let him go thinking I still may see a cat. Never saw a cat and after about 25 minutes he showed up again this time I let him have it at about 30 yards. One of the crappy pics...
Got this bitch 2 weeks ago, she was also a victim of yellowhammer distress and came in after about 7-8 minutes of low volume. This was also in the area that I have been calling hoping to call a bobcat, this time I did not have the patience to pass it up.
Here is a pretty big male I shot last wednesday he came into a baby cottontail tape with multiple distress cries going on at the same time. The tape came with the caller and this was the first stand that I used it on. I blanked my next 3 stands with it so it is not magic just happened to work for this guy... Another crappy pic...
This is another large male I got on friday. He came in after about 5 minutes of "viddles ala Jackrabbit".... Kind of a funny story. I was on my way home from work and decided to stop and try a stand on this piece of land. I had to be back by 530 and it was 445 when I pulled onto the dirt road. That was when I realized that I did not have any camo but decided to try it anyway. I got hunkered down into some brush and hid myslef well. About 4-5 minutes into calling I shifted my leg just a little but it was enough to drive a cactus needle right into my ankle. It hurt like hell and just as I started to stand up I saw coyote ears bobbing through the brush about 200 yard away. I eased back down still with the needle stinging like hell. It seemed like 10 minutes, but was probably more like 45 seconds when I saw him come popping out at about 60 yards and start to slow down. I was in too much pain to coax him further so shot at 60 yards and dropped him in his tracks. When I finally got to pull out the cactus sticker I saw it was actually a piece of cholla and I had more like 10 stickers in me. Oh well was still fun of course.
