    Post Coyote Hunting

    Well I am heading out this evening for my first outing this winter for coyotes. A quick trip to the range and then a favorite spot.

    Thumbs down Hunt #1 - Skunked

    I needed more of it. Called one stand for 40 mins or so with no sightings except a few mulie does and a moose. No replies to my locater howls either.

    On a higher note, my 223 Rem handloads shot great at the range sight-in, 55 gr. Sierra GameKing BTSP's over Hodgdon Benchmark, 3200 fps avg and good accuracy.

    hope to get out again this week...

    Hey Firebird, Sounds like fun. How much range you got to shoot in where you are hunting?

    Where I was hunting today, it was 386 yards to the far treeline from the blind. Shots can vary from 50 yards to as far as you feel confident to shoot. If you have the equipment and skill to shoot 500 yards, this area can present you with such a shot.

    500 hundred yards is a good poke for a coyote. Good luck!
    If you're going to find tracks you better make tracks!

    Firebird, I have never been to Vanderhoof. is that like pasture land or hay fields or natural meadows? Lakes aren't froze up yet are they?

    Farm land mainly, with small woodlots spread around in between. Pretty good coyote habitat.
