I absolutely appreciate your post, Jeff. You are right on the money - sometimes we can get ahead of the airplane in a bad way.
The local Fish and Wildlife guy lives a few miles away and we have chatted about this quite a bit. He uses my pistol range quite a bit.
The laws are evolving and the local folks are on the side of farmers. He has given me the green light. I don't expect to hunt Coyotes until it get much colder. They have plenty to eat now.
I don't relish this in any way: I want an unfair advantage and get it over with as soon as possible. Coyotes are not native here and are apex predators.
