FoxPro X24 howls, fights and prey distress
Several packs heard

Michael killed a male on poundtown at about the 26 minute mark on the first stand. He shot another one on the 4th stand but we didn’t find it.

I killed a male on the 3rd stand that came to rabbit about 3-4 minutes in and Ken missed one.

We could have had a 4 dog night but it was still fun !

Hunted 3 stands with my cousin helping me scan. Called a male in on 3rd stand to rabbit at just under the 5 minute mark.

Had a pack response a few minutes after shooting him but they never showed up.

He came in a gave me an easy 84 yard shot.

While we were having a heated discussion about whether the cat head we saw in brush behind us belonged to a bobcat or a feral cat, Mr. Wiley came into the field right where we expected him to come from and listened in on our convo. When we finally did see him he was well on his way to the other side of the county. We mouth howled him to a stop and triggerman David Strickland did a good job of aerating his chest cavity with an 87gr Vmax out of his 6 creed. MFK Cot-tail sauce was the jam. Guess that will teach us to turn our backs to the kill zone.‍

A neighbor called me about dusk dark, said one of my fields beside the road was full of hogs. I got my rifle with a thermal scope and me and my wife took off. The hogs were gone from the field when we got there so we went to check another one. I stoped in the field road and scanned the field no hogs. While I was scanning a group of coyotes started howling about a 1/4 mile off. Then one howled real close. I told my wife to get one of my calls out of the center console. I did a few rabbit in distress calls and then made a couple of howls. He came around the edge of the field at a run. I barked and he stopped at 150yrds. Nailed him. No pictures to wet to get to him.

Called a pair in Text Book style. Set up and had them answerer the Roo Invite howl they started to come to kittens in distress and hung up at about 300 yards. Pound Town was more than they could resist and in they came on in I was on the left and that yote never broke cover, the one on the right was out in the pasture and fixing to come to a stop so I knew he was fixing to catch a 22-250 round https://rumble.com/v4izeec-right-side.html

First called in coyote. Was checking an alternate pivot after seeing no hogs at my primary pivot. Saw two coyotes at approx 550 yards. They ran to the left a couple hundred yards as if they caught my scent. They stopped at the field's edge. Pulled out a coyote call and squeaked on it a few times. Danged if they didn't start running my way. Shot the closest one at 135 yards. Missed the second one when it was hauling butt outta there. That wasn't unexpected.

Good job Keith. Is that female with pups? Or is it a female?
