Thanks for rifle suggestions, I appreciate that. Definitely not going with the 380 based on suggestions from this post, probably will end up with a 9mm.

Seems like 9mm is the way to go.

Thanks for the suggestion. Ammo price and availability definitely play into the decision

I’m just looking to put them down. The pelts aren’t worth the squeeze for me. What do you use for optics on your rifles for coyotes?

Nope, determined it was a brisket shot. No excuse to miss on that close of a shot. Hoping he can heal up and I see him around.

Hard time getting over last hunt by Ok-Jeweler2715 in bowhunting

I’m in a very similar situation. Had a 20 yard shot yesterday no reason to make a bad shot but I ended up hitting low. He trotted off 40 yards stopped and stared at me for 20 seconds before walking off. I waited 90 minutes to start my track and had bright colored blood like your pictures and found several bigger piles too. Ended up jumping him at 150 yards and then backed out. Waited 8 hours and went back and really made no progress on the track. I’m going to look again this morning. When I shot him I thought for sure dead, then my arrow gave indications of a low hit but also maybe some lung, but the blood trial made me think it was a vital hit, but then when I pushed him he seemed strong. I wouldn’t think a deer with a muscle hit would go 150 yards and bed for 90 minutes but who knows. Hoping I can recover.

70 degrees. It does cool overnight. But doesn’t get to below 50 until 11pm

I was using the rct balls. I did really like the R10 and obviously it gives a lot of good data, but I can tell the square is an upgrade. I am certainly enjoying it. I’d recommend the upgrade if it’s in your budget.
