I passed up 5 shots on coyotes this year with my bow while hunting. I guess because I'm not sure that I would have something viable to do with the animal. What are my options and how do I go about it if I decide to do it?
What would I do with the coyote?

Shoot it, take a picture, walk away... knowing that you saved a few deer.
Or find someone that will buy the hide and drop it off. If you can kill a yote with your bow, IMO that is quite an accomplishment.

Tan the hide and hang from a nail on the wall, some have a very pretty tanned hide.

I'll kill a yote anytime of the year except when it's an obvious wet female. It makes me happy inside when I whack one.
From Oct-Feb the pelt is worth money. They're not worth a lot of $, 15-20$ for a prime coyote whole, unskinned. It helps pay for gas. I always have a few large construction grade garbage bags in the car or truck and bag them up for transport as I don't want the fleas at home or on my dogs. I have cased and put the fur up myself, but find it not worth the stink, mess, time and fleas.
My 223 wssm with Hornady 55 grn spire points is very fur friendly.

Don't kill anything you're not going to eat. Coyotes are good. They eat lambs and calves and piss off the welfare ranchers.
