Nice one Thanks for sharing... He probably saved a couple deer in the area he harvested this.  That coyote ain't going to eat any fawns this year!!!!Keep up the good work Predator 94's Dad!!!!

It was acctually my dad just p94 knows how to put the pics up and i don't lol. I think he shot it at 6:30 or something but it was real early in morning. he and a friend were calllin and then the coyote came in through some high grass comin towards my dad. then his friend called and it turned broadside at 20 yards for him and it spun twice and dropped.

Coonreaper well then pass on the congrats to your dad!!!!Did he call constant or did he have periods with breaks of silence? did he use food sounds or did he also use coyote vocalization?

I think they did a flydown cackle like the birds were flying down off the roost and then some light clucking and yelping. When we were in wv we had a coyote come in also 25 yards from my dad but he was just calling for my brother and didnt take his gun. so im thinkin that these turkey sounds work on the coyotes pretty well rite now. We have also come to the conclusion that in places where there are high coyote populations the turkeys arent as vocal because they are  probably attracting attention from the coyotes.
