Had an action packed stand, cleaned out most of the family group on this deer hunting farm!
- Foxpro with MFK sounds / greeting whines was by far the most productive
- 12 gauge shooting the Fowl Forged #3 TSS

Congratulations on getting 7 coyotes with a shotgun!

Great video!

Nothing more fun than making shotgun stands when you know they are in range if you see them.

TSS #3 shot is about the best size TSS shot for killing coyotes. Plenty of penetration and a high pellet count.

It does seem to be right in the sweet spot doesn’t it!

Thank goodness for permethrin! I've never seen that many ticks on a coyote. Good job!

They’re thick where I’m from!
Definitely learned it’s not something to mess with! Still deal with the effects of Lymes and it’s been several years since I had it initially
 
Oh, we have ticks, but I can't remember ever seeing but one tick on a coyote for some reason, nor fleas....wonder why????? Javelina, however are covered w/fleas down here and when they start to cool off, guess what the fleas do. They start looking for the nearest warm body. :(:(:( Other areas, the javelina don't seemto be bothered w/fleas, I am told.
 
Nice shooting getting seven Galen !

We have plenty of ticks and chiggers in Georgia. I can assure you of that !

And thank goodness for permethrin.

In the warmer months, our coyotes are covered in ticks. Once they’re dead, the ticks drop off—sometimes I’ll open the tailgate after a hunt and the bed of my truck is crawling with them.

But this one was a first.

For a couple weeks, I thought I had an ear infection in my right ear. Dull aches, weird pressure, and off and on it felt like there was water trapped inside. Every day, it would discharge these hard, dark brown chunks of what I figured was dried wax. I figured something was drying it out too much.

Then Sunday, it felt like something was ticking deep in my ear—like a chunk of wax shifting. I tilted my head, grabbed a Q-tip, and went to clear it out. What came out was a blood-filled tick.

It had been in my ear, feeding, and finally let go. Since then, no more pain, no more wax buildup—my ear feels normal again.
