Here in Missouri we are currently in the last part of our annual deer hunting season. It is now called Alternate Methods portion. That is still with muzzleloader for me. It closes each day shortly after 5pm. On this particular day about 4pm a couple of Coyotes crossed the open right-of-way where I was hunting. I shot this one as he hesitated briefly while crossing. I realized that it would probably mean no deer for that day, but was a price I was willing to pay. I figure my doing this saved a few young fawns and possibly a turkey or two. I do have a nice covey of quail here on the place too. I just wish I could get a chance at the bobcat I have seen a couple of times when I was not hunting. I used my TC Encore ProHunter 50 caliber for this. No big thing as it was an easy 35 yard shot.
