First stand, a big male came in and my buddy killed it. Good start. Next stand, we walked down a road that hadn't been traveled in a long time. went in about 1/2 mile and I set up on a high snow drift and he went another 200 yards downwind to a blown down tree. looked like an incredible spot with some scattered woodlots,a large cattail slough and a crp field within veiw. Seeing all the tracks on the way in, we had a feeling Started out with a lone howl, waited a bit than went to group howls. Only into the stand for maybe 3 minutes when I looked to the east and 1/2 mile away coming across a wide open dirt field came 5 coyotes all lined up abreast and coming hard. When they hit the 80 yard mark, I shot the first coming head on and it crumped face in the dirt. At the shot, the other 4 scattered and I went into auto-pilot. Can't quite but the details into words as it all became a blur but I shot 5 times and knocked down 5 coyotes. My friend down the line got to see it all and his comment was" holy . that looked like a western movie" Have killed Tripps and even a quad before but never a quint. After dragging them all out, we were so sweated up, we decided to call it a day. Got a good buddy that's a member here that's been putting up my hides this year and has been doing a great job at it. He's really liking what the 17-204 does in terms of fur damage.

It don't happen often, but it can. I sat down in the middle of six a few weeks back. Didn't call 10 seconds and had two in sight. Two more calls and had yotes coming from three directions. I got 5 of the 6. 2 with the shotgun, 3 with the 204. Don't know where the 6th one went. The land owner thought I was missing.....LOL The look on his face was worth the price of admission when he seen the five.
