Dad went to his blind and me to one of my stands on the side of a thick cedar bush .
When it got light enough dad took a picture of the frost inside of the blind .


At about 7:45 I caught movement out in front through the trees . It was 5 coyotes scurrying through . We had heard some when we were walking in . Well one of them happened to come out infront of me at 12 yards . I hit it and it did a couple of circles at if it had been bit by something . Yeah me !!

I cocked back the bow for the hopefully a deer .
Not 5 minutes later had another coyote come through but no shot unless I had a shotgun with buckshot . Again not 5 minutes pass and I have another one come through . It stopped at my 20 yard mark and it got bit also .


At about 8:45 I catch movement off to my left . It is a deer .



I radioed Dad once more and informed him that I was now out of arrows .


Here is the fur left behind by the second coyote .

The first coyote .


The bloodtrail from the deer right after being shot .

The buck at the end of that trail .
