Coming to the Call

We heard coyotes in two places as we were loading the gear. Before my partner turned the call on I spotted this one headed to the sound of one set of coyotes. As soon as my partner started the call the coyote heard it and started our way. I signaled to my buddy that we had one coming. Unfortunately when he looked with his scope he was too far left and saw an owl that he thought I must have mistaken for a coyote. He never saw the coyote until after I shot. I should have woofed him to a halt, but didn't. Just as I took the shot the coyote leaped over something in the corn field and I either shot under him or hit him in the hind legs. I recovered and made the kill shot. Turned out to be a pretty big male.
