i shot a fawn::He seems to have either left the area or ran into a farmer with his rifle handy.
About the only excitement came later in the afternoon.
I managed to kick up a coyote during the heat of the day.
I only caught a glimpse of him as he disappeared into the tall grass.
I rushed to go set up where i thought he would come out.
He came out of the grass right where i thought he would, about 200 yards away from me.
I paused long enough to confirm that is was indeed a coyote, he paused long enough to confirm that i indeed was going to shoot at him.
He started running and i started shooting.
The first round went over the top of his head and between his ears.
He promptly changed direction, i adjusted my lead and shot again.
This shot went over his back, my partner said that it was damn close, an inch or less, but a miss is a miss.
He changed direction again and picked up the pace.
I led him by eight body lengths and figured his distance at 350 to 400 yards.
The shot went behind him.
One day i will make that shot, and never have a problem with it again.
Hindsight tells me that i need to quit shooting at the whole coyote and pick a spot.
