Monday night we got home from a 4H meeting and saw a coyote out in the field. Turned out that it was heading for a dead goat somebody pitched out in front of our woods. We went up to the house, grabbed a shotgun, loaded it with some turkey shells, and went down there to kill it. Of course, my luck, it was completely dark outside (9:30 PM) and I could barely see a thing. All of a sudden I see the coyote going at full speed at about 40 yards away. I aimed and shot. This morning the goat was gone so I figured the coyote had come back later on and got it which means I probably didn't hit it. Though I might share my story and see if there were any good tips to kill that coyote.

Just some friendly advice for you. Shooting when you can't see a thing is not a good idea. Always know your target and what is behind it. Once you pull that trigger, you can never take the shot back.

Of course, my luck, it was completely dark outside (9:30 PM) and I could barely see a thing. All of a sudden I see the coyote going at full speed at about 50 yards away. I aimed and shot. This morning the goat was gone so I figured the coyote had come back later on and got it which means I probably didn't hit it.
