Made a stand and howled and got 3 coyotes to answer about a half mile from us. Geordie could see one and he started our way, but gave up. Returned to the truck and drove a little closer.
Got out and started our approach. We were entering what some refer to as a CORE area, we just call it living room. As we neared where we wanted to make a stand, Geordie drifted downwind. Read that game hog. Anyways we chose one spot and communicated with hand signals that it was no good so we crept closer. Then picked a spot we both liked.
One howl followed by some pup distress and two minutes later I hear a shot. Back on pup and about 5 minutes later another shot. So I repeat and wait for about 4 more minutes and hear another shot. After a while I see a coyote angling towards us. Also at the same time, Geordie gives me two sour notes on the call which usually indicates he is done, but for all I knew he was out of bullets. Anyways I take a long shot at the coyote because I know Geordie is going to be standing up. Miss. Geordie sits back down and I get on the pup distress and the coyote circles the point of the ridge and comes right on in to die too.
Four on one stand was a first for me. Geordie held one up because it was behind a yucca and the other three are laying all in a row right where HE shot them.

I knew there had to be a reason why you hunt with that Okie.
Hey, I still have your politically incorrect book, wrapped in plastic and stuck in a side pocket, in the truck. Why didn't you remind me? We seniors can be so damned forgetful, you know?
What book?
Good hunting. LB

The land scape kinda/sorta looks like some around here but the fauna is as foreign to me as snakes. I like the way you guys got them to lay in a line. Good going.

Shaw what were they age wise and order wise an older one first, if I had to guess I usually see an older female taken early and then the rest of the clan?

I believe you mean, "stand" management? Set is a trapping term that doesn't apply to calling. No big deal, but.
Good hunting. LB
