Yeah guys, I am ready for those coyotes of they get too close I'll pop a warning shot - and if that doesn't do it, I'll have to plug 'em.
And right after it happens I would calmly enjoy a cup of Coffee Instant Type 1 and a vintage smoke.

As for you guy's experience with them, I remember yours Elandil it routed you guys outta there early and you had to do the 2nd part of that review back at home. At night time and especially without adequate lighting, those coyotes would be hard to target - and it could get dangerous!

As for your situation Ratattoo, I'll bet it was the latter - you know, my dog Scooter is a Chihuahua and he can get pretty mean - especially when he wants some Freeze Dried Pork Patty from a Vintage MRE! ;)

He's actually a sweet little feller - got him laying on my lap now and he's always on alert waiting to let his dad know when someone is at the door. :)

Good job, Steve. But I think you have it backwards: That was an eating trip with the bonus of sleeping out. My kind of trip, by the way!

Coyotes, huh? You ought to try camping in Utah. We have coyotes up to our keesters - with the added thrill of wolves, bears, badgers, and mountain lions - not to mention 2,000-pound moose. All of which can meander into camp at any time. We don't carry "niners". Our little steel bedside companions come in sizes that start with a "4".

Reminds me of that old joke...lady asked a Texas Ranger why he carried a 45....He replied "Cuz they don't make a 46..." :mrgreen:

Bigger can be better, and contrary to popular belief, size does matter sometimes... ;)
