Took the girlfriend out for her first time coyote calling last weekend. We ended up calling in two doubles but each time they came on my side so she never did get to shoot. The first stand we called in a double and after all the action was done she told me she was hooked. We ended up seeing 11 coyotes total that day but only managed to call in two doubles. First stand of the morning. Tried barking to stop this guy but he was coming hard and nothing was slowing him down so had to drop the hammer on him at about 40 yards on a full out run towards the call and ended up hitting him to far back. The girlfriend packin the 223 ackley Last coyote of the day was a beautiful little female. Awesome fur on this one.

That's a lot of dogs to see in a day! Awesome!

Lots of dogs in that country. I was in Bowman over Christmas and the dogs were not call shy. Missed too many doubles though

Well done Laker! Bring the lady this way come May and we'll show her some slightly larger furry denizens to call in...grin

Actually mark she's from that direction. She's from the Helena area and her grandparents own a ranch over by Clyde park.
