I posted this over in the Night Hunting Section, but even though I know this is the baiting thread, you guys love pics and video too.


My hunting buddy was too tired to go last night so I went by myself.  Called in front of the local prison where I killed one earlier in the fall.  Had a pair that responded to coyote vocals.  I killed the first one at 85 yds. but the second one didn't stop until about 300+ yds.  I had a good hold on the shot, but apparently shot just under her.  The first one turned out to be a black male. 


Here's a couple of pics.

Here is the video.  The place where I was calling has a lot of backscatter light from the prison, so I had to use my Night Stalker tripod from a sitting position to not be so lit up.  Had I been able to call standing, I think I could have made the double because I wouldn't have had to keep moving the tripod.  Also after reviewing the video, if I had been more patient, I think the female might have come back and given me a closer shot.  I was trying too hard to make the double and with the adrenaline pumping it was too much temptation to take the long standing shot.  At least I got the black one, but didn't know until I went to retrieve him.
