Went deer hunting this morning (monday nov.5). Was late and didnt get to the stand until sunrise. Walked in quick. Put out 3 tinks 69 sent bombs and climbed into my ladder stand. Was not setup more than 10 min and I could hear a yote comming in. All of a sudden I could here alot. there were 4 maybe 5 yotes around me. Its thick where my stand is so they have to be within 20yrds for me to get a shot. I could see a big male sneaking around trying to find out where the scent was comming from. I hit my bleat can and they all came in closer. They started to circle my stand trying to find the hot doe. Finaly the male stepped out right under one of the scent bombs. I shot him broadside. He rolled around screaming. Another smaller female ran up to him. I knocked another arrow and shot her. She rolled. Another yote ran up to her. I knocked another arrow, shot, and it moved so i bearly missed. It ran off. That was my 3rd and last arrow. Just then a Huge female that was an awesome red color ran under my stand. She grabbed the small female by the neck and drug here about 5 feet. stood there about 2 minits then ran off. This is the coyote that I wanted to kill but I was out of arrows.
After that I got down. got my arrows. drug the two yotes out to my truck. snapped a few pics. didnt bother hunting anymore because i stunk of coyotes and had blood all over my boots. was not in the woods more than an hour total.
this is the first animal I have hit with my new rage 2 blade broadheads. Man they do the job. The entry hole must have been 3 inches wide. Im very impressed with them.

I wouldn't lay my bow on those nasty things. You'll never get that stench off it. :(

Congrats, You've done something few have the oportunity to do with a bow. And you just saved a good number of deer in your area. It is obvious from the description of what you saw, they were pack hunting and have been quite succesful at it. As long as coyote's act normal they are not that bad to have around. But animals like these will not only take deer they will soon turn to livestock. You just broke up the party by killing that male. Kill that red female and it will be done for this year. Jimmie

Thanks guys.

Yeah, I am going to have to do some serious cleaning and scent killing on my bow. It was already contaminated with blood so i just set it on them for the pic. I already have my camo in the washer as I type. Next is my rubber boots. I dont care, the cleanup is worth it.

The yotes are bad on our farm. I have already killed 3 this year. one with my rifle. and that was not even me trying. that was them coming around at the wrong time. plan on hunting them more when deer season is over. They have already killed some calfs on the farm. Also found some fawn skulls around from last year. So im always trying to thin them out.

I'm sure Uncle Ted would talk about eating the succulent backstrap of the beast. I, personally, will pass on yote backstraps. :D
