It wasn't my night, but Chad did fine. While waiting on Chad to arrive, spotted a hog. Checked with him and he wasn't going to be there for a while and said for me to go after it. I made a beautiful 190 shot that completely missed. All I can figure is that my bullet got lost in the crosswind.
Chad arrived and an hour or so later saw maybe the same hog in another part of that field and so we pulled in a couple hundred yards down from where it was and while we were busy parking and getting out our gear thinking it was still browsing in the distance, it moved. We got Chad through the fence and he did a quick scan and saw the hog had come the 200 yards in our direction and was immediately down wind of us. I was still in the ROW and told him to go ahead and shoot as I acted as a spotter to make sure the cattle didn't become a problem. Chad did good @ 80 yards.
Later we got onto two coyotes that walked right up on us. We hoped for a double and couldn't ever get both in the clear at the same time. The coyotes moved out into open pasture and we attempted a double. I shot high and Chad connected with his @ 185 yards. We think worked to finish it off.
Otherwise, we didn't see diddly over a 6 hour period.
