Biggest coyote you've killed?

Heaviest one I ever killed was 48.8 lbs, that as about eight years ago in front of hounds. I belong to a club, Pa Fox & Coyote Hunters Assoc, primarily houndsmen. I believe the heaviest coyote that was killed in our club was a little over 54 lbs
I don't believe these reports of 70+ lb coyote shot to be honest.
 
I shot one a few years ago that was 46 pounds if I remember correctly. I shot another one not all that long ago that was 44.4 pounds. Those are the only ones that I remember weighing other than coyotes I took to calling contest. Definitely the 3 biggest I've shot. I've killed some that were in the upper 30's but as far as I know those three I mentioned were the only ones that went over 40 pounds. Still big coyotes for around here. I'd guess that 30 pounds is probably pretty standard for most.

I gotta edit to say I'm not 100% sure the one I shot a few years ago was 46 it may have been 44 and some ounces. I honestly can't remember.

Never weighed one that was over 40 pounds. The couple I have weighed were just under that 40 mark. Killed one or two that were about that size that I didn't get on the scales. I would say most around here average around 30 pounds.
