I'm such a killjoy...Where’s the fun in that?
Funny you should say that.........Right? I thought the op bought a new truck at first, then realized I was in the hunting section.

Congrats on the yote. Did your son get a turkey?Not a note..a yote but i cant edit the title..
My son was calling for turkeys and I always hunt with him with my Ruger Ranch rifle in .223 in case we are overran by hogs or any critters.
This big male came in sneaking after hearing the hen calls.
He clearly violated the stay at home order and I deemed him non essential
I feel good because he was walking a a good pace when I dusted him

The first time I saw a coyote we were hunting near Mexia on my grandfather's place. I was about 10 years old and it came running out of the woods not five yards from me, froze in its tracks, and just stared at me. I thought it was one of the neighbors dogs so I didn't shoot it and actually said, "hey, boy". It took off running like greased lightning.
When my dad came by to pick me up, I told him about it. He looked at me and said, "you dumbass, that was a coyote!"
I've let a lot of them walk past me over the years, simply because I thought it would ruin my chances at deer for that particular hunt if I shot them.
In all my years in the woods, I've seen dozens of coyotes, three bobcats, and about four foxes.
Hogs never get a pass.
That is correct sirI'm sure he wouldn't have hesitated on a bobcat or fox either.

No turkey.Congrats on the yote. Did your son get a turkey?
I went this morning, heard on gobble on the roost and never heard him again.
I did punish a hog though for gathering with more than 5 friends. There were 40 or so and the wind was just right. Closed the distance to about 25 yards before dropping one. The guy whose property I hunted took some photos, just waiting for him to send over.
