I planned to go calling yesterday morning, but it was too cold and windy when I got up, so I scrapped that idea......it was a bit warmer this morning with light wind but the weather forecast said windy and warmer.....they got the windy part right! The wind was very light when I arrived at the property I wanted to call, but by the end of the first stand it had started to blow. I moved on to the next spot and set up......let the caller run less than 5 minutes and packed it up.....way too much wind at that location. I moved over the ridge about 3/8 of a mile and tried again.....still no takers, so I headed back to the truck. I decided to try a big draw in a highline right of way, I have killed several coyotes there before and thought maybe it would be out of the wind enough to make it a worthwhile stop. I called for about 15-20 minutes, with no response, and had actually started putting tapes back in the cases when I saw this one coming in. She stopped for a look at 100 yards or so and that was a fatal mistake! The 40 grain V-Max fired from the 223 Model 7 entered the center of her chest, there was no exit......
