2 Nights Hunting over a Dead Cow

Nice shooting!

Thank you, No, I waited until I was close to being done for the night. The coyot I shot at 288 died in some long grass and about an hour after I shot it another a coyot came down the hill and started eating it. I couldn’t get a good shot off and it got away.
I have seen them smell me at 400 yards and turn around and run. but I’ve had um straight down wind at 20 yards and nothing. Not all coyots have a great nose or have great hearing. Just like people have allergies or start loosing there hearing as they get older.

That is what I was wondering. Were any of them reacting to your scent trail where you had previously walked?

Nice shooting with that holdover
