PatrickJr Report post Posted January 6, 2015 I was able to get out for a couple stands after a couple days of helping a buddy with his deer and pig tags. Now, you must understand that I normally do 12-14 minute stands, hardly ever do I stay longer. I do this because a mentor of mine is a very accomplished caller and recommended this to me. On my first stand, I set the caller up just 3 yards to my side of a good sized ditch. I figured if anything came in from the other side of the ditch that when it entered (hopefully i saw it enter) the ditch is when I could raise my shotgun. I was once again solo. Well I played 2 sounds for 7 minutes each then I switched to my mentor's favorite sound of all time. I did this because I loved my setup and couldn't believe nothing had come in... At the 18 minute mark I saw a coyote just come screamin in! He was quickly behind some trees, and dropped into the ditch. My shotgun was now shouldered and ready. He jumped up out of the ditch right next to the caller, and once he cleared the call, he hit the snow. Male ~20 yards Later in the day with my dad, who was kicking himself for not coming out with me. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
