Unreal! !!!

Unread postby Killtree » Wed Oct 18, 2017 1:05 am

Went still hunting/ scouting this morning.
Sat down in a thicket to wait for it to get good and daylight. A doe wandered in and I put an arrow in her at 8:08.
Checked for blood and it was a geyser.
Took up blood trail immediately.
Found her at 8:29 and the coyotes had already ate a whole shoulder, one of the hams, and part of a tenderloin! !! :shock:

Wow that's unfortunate man. I read something similar earlier in the year. Except the doe went down in site and the hunter was able to put an arrow in the yote. That has to be a punch to the gut!

Most of the meat is salvageable I just can't believe they got on her that quick.

I'm surprised you couldn't hear them. Time to shoot some coyotes.

That is just bad luck, or good luck if you are a yote.

:shock: :shock: :shock: That is a bit of a yote problem. I heard Dan's story the other day about them getting onto the gut pile when they werent even 100yds away. Last season I arrowed a buck early Oct and they were already by my stand at closing time! Maybe its all bc of being in a core area for the coyotes?

This year has been especially bad it seems. My brother shot a nice buck last Monday. High entry with no pass through made the blood trail a bit tricky. Found the deer about 4 hours after the shot and coyotes had gotten into both hindquarters.

My dad shot a doe Saturday. Fell within sight. Had a pair of coyotes come after the deer within 20 minutes. . . they were within bow range so it didn't turn out so well for one of them. They must have nose for blood like no other.

I'd set up over that deer and go on a coyote killing mission.
