Only 3 -4 minutes on the calls and 2 down so I continue with the rest of the 20 minute sit and it was silent for the rest. When I got up and headed to the yotes I noticed the male had only 3 legs. After skinning it I found Bird shot in under the hide.

I head straight across the road to the property owners other property and I drive back in and stop close to the last feild, park quietly get out and walk down the feild edge 500 or so yards to the end. As I walk down I see fresh tracks crossing back and forth in the area so it looks good. I move to setup out from the inside corner of the woods on both sides of the field about 150yds out. Got the caller and mojo out and I settled back along a drainage creek in the field and the wind is cross wind from the corner. I feel good, Never hunted this place this winter so maybe some uncalled coyotes here. I start calling with a distressed rabbit call for about a minute and stop. I then turn on the caller and raise the volume to a 30 for about 20 seconds and then lower it again to 23 and after a minute I stop. I scan the wood line and have to also look over my right shoulder to watch just up wind to woods and as I come back I spot a yote standing in the grassy wet swamp looking at the mojo up wind of the caller. I lift the pod and move to the right and settle on him and squeeze, Bang Down he goes.
I hit the remote fast 015 KIHI and turn it up to 40 and I jack another shell in the gun and start scaning the wod line and as I scan all the way to the right over my shoulder and coming back I spot the other running up and back towards the woods on the edge. As I swing the dog spots me and stops and I get settled perfect and squeeze and down goes number 2. I watch for a minute again with the KIHI on and I spot a running movement back in the open area of the woods going to my right up wind. I shut off the caller and wait silent watching for about 2 minutes and see nil as I scan the line. Now my hearts pumping hard and I'm totally mixed up here as to what to do, so do what ever comes to mind. I hit the recall button and on goes the cottontail dst and I run it for a minute watching and then hit it again so on comes the KIHI again and as I scan THERE he is standing back in the swamp grass looking out at the caller. I swing slow and settle on his chest and squeeze and down he goes !
A triple at set 2 I am so excited that as the caller is running i'm texting my buddy Wayne to tell him what has just happened to me.
5 coyotes down in 2 sets !!!! Unbelieveable ! what a record for me and one that I dont exspect to ever beat.
I need Ammo !
