Track Soup

Went out early this morning and watched a water hole. With the drought animals are concentrating at water. I was hoping to catch another hog. Instead I got to shoot at a coyote.

Don’t you hate it when you know it was the loose nut behind the trigger that messed up? I know the gun is accurate and we’ll sighted in. I’ve spent time at the range this summer making sure.

The coyote came in without seeing me. I had a good broadside opportunity at about 70 yards. No one to blame but me. It was still exciting. And that’s the way hunting works, right?

Charlie Maggard always says it's the jerk on the trigger.

That works too, lol. FYI that’s the actual track of the dog I missed.

Don't feel too bad. A 70 yard coyote isn't a very big target.
