well its that time of year and my schedule is getting closer to opening up, to where i can actually get out!! finally! i am gonna make this my little post to see what i end up with this year...bow, rifle season. a good friend of mine/hunting partner had been busting his butt and me helping when i could, on some food plots. well the inevitable came up, he went into back surgery last week. he still told me to hunt away and get what i could on his time down. so i feel a little bad cause he did most of the work, so i decided this year not to press the deers too hard and just see what shows and if see a yote, their the first on the list to go.
well i went out last week on thursday and did some calling and got to overlooking my line of site and a yote snuck in about 30ydrs from me (tall grass), it took off when we both seen each other. so i hung out in the spot quiet for awhile and started calling again and this young pup was too curious to maybe leave well enough alone. so with thanks to OKHUNTER (Scott) with the calling seminar and tips and MR. THE MAN (Daniel) for the shooting sticks and lanyard which holds my Primos Lil' Dog hand calls, i bagged her up. she fell where she stood @ 52paces from me, bullet entered into upper left shoulder (she was looking at me quatered away a little) and exit out lower right ab side. she looked to be about a 1yr--1.5yr old female and a beautiful coat (which i am tanning now . this was my first time to skin a yote so i was not too sure what to do, but i was happy with the turn out)
weapon of choice---.223 winchester model 70 bolt action, heavy barrell, srgt. major plaster stock, simmons glass, my new hand loads by Jack Branson useing a ballistic tip 55grain bullet (i will get more bullet info in here later).
