Tumble Yote - 1st Coyote of 2017

[Brian Shaffer]

Well, my first, anyway. A nice little pack came in and after fiddlefarting with the controls, picked out the guy making the biggest mess and shot him. He took off running like he was still in good shape and the 3rd shot took all the gas out of him. That he ran with 50 cent piece-sized hole in his shoulder is still a bit beyond my comprehension.

[rgilbert]

Good job Brian

 

[djones]

[BDubbs]

Great shooting!! DJ would have been in such awe that the first shot hit meat that he wouldn't have been able to pull the trigger again!

 

[JPK]

Nice! Running coyotes aren't that easy to hit! Good job

 

[gshock]

Good shot at that distance! And way to start off the New Year!

 

[Ratdog68]

Some good crash and burn there with that third shot. But, yeah, that tank was going dry quickly after shot #1.

Nice going Brian. I was able to get on this morning also. I won't be able to post anything till I get home. I still think we should keep a count of the coyotes too.

 

[Oso Grande]

Great shooting! You're tearing them up....

Brian, good shot, coyotes running are always challenge

In your opinion, was the coyote running flat out or 1/2 speed, i was doing the math on a running 35mph coyote, at 130yds , at /near 2250fps sst horandy(16"barrel assumed), lead should be around 8ft +-, appeared to be around 3 to 3 1/2ft, That figures coyote about 15mph, course he had a small wound that slowed him a bit

 

[Brian Shaffer]

LOL, in my opinion, the coyote was running as fast as he could. The following coyote that I didn't shoot was moving MUCH faster and and probably needed your 8 ft lead or more. I have probably led some bigger hogs by about 4-5 feet, but can't think of a time I tried 8-10 ft of lead.

 

[djones]

you ain't shooting far enough. hell i've led dirt clods farther than that!

let try this...

What is the groundspeed velocity of an unladen coyote?

 

[Brian Shaffer]

North American or South American?
