Been having a pretty solid season compared to last year in the predator calling. We’re up to like 11 fox and 2 coyotes between my calling partner and I. Some have been with my 20practical I built and the others were shot gunned with a 20gauge and 3 buck, both coyotes so far were downed with a 20gauge. 

 

 

Shotgunning coyotes. Nice. Most people I know down here use rifles for predator hunting. Good job!

My buddy loves to shot gun them and get them close this year he’s made a challenge for himself to shoot all his predators with his 20gauge because everyone says you need a 12ga for just about everything so we use the 20 for ducks geese and now fox and coyotes. 

Shot gunned another tonight. Big brute of a red. 

 

Nice pelts Clayton

Nice! I hit em with an AR. Does this trick.

Depends on the spot but I usually run my AR that I built in 20 practical. Been mixed results on fur. One I blew a base ball sized hole in the other about 1” hole others were no exit to small tears of the jacket exiting in several places. 

 

That last big red I got with the shotgun came out great he was big enough that he’s on a coyote board being stretched and dried right now. Wish I had the money he would have been a great one to mount. I’m gonna tan it and hang it with a coyote and gray I got a few years ago that I had tanned. I’ve been considering making a blanket if I ever get enough coyotes. 

Yeah I don't keep them or the fur. I give them to a buddy of mine who does whatever with them. I just get rid of them when they become a nuisance. Around here they'll take pets in a heartbeat. 

Got two more last night. I got this one and my buddy shot gunned one as well. This is the “good” side as my 20practical did a number on the exit. Think I’m gonna Get a 17 hornet for next season and put my night vision on it and thermal on the 20p one for foxy stands one for coyotes only. 

 

Awesome stuff!!

Contest this weekend we did ok had some technical difficulties on the first night...at least that’s what I’m saying the issue was. Called in 11 coyotes on night 1 killed 1, called 4 fox killed 1. Night two Called 2 coyote killed 2 called 2 fox killed 1.
