I think I get the reasoning behind your post, and you make some good points, but on the other hand, I've never aspired to be like "most shooters", and I hope most here don't either. That bar is way too low. That thinking makes sense I guess if you're guiding hunts for people of unknown skill, but hunting for yourself? Take the shot, that's why us loonies think about such things as flat shooting cartridges, wind drift, drop, etc.

I do see your point that maybe the hide/stand wasn't good enough, even if the hunt is successful. I'm certainly interested in tips on calling coyotes in better.
