Zach Ingle, of Ringgold, with a 32.8-lb. male coyote taken at night with a 6.5 Grendel and thermal imaging scope at 274 yards at 10 p.m. on May 28. Zach said, “It and another coyote were shot within 15 minutes of each other after we arrived and it had been attacking my friend’s goats about two hours before dark. When that friend called me we came over and convinced the pair of coyotes that was not the way to act around his goats. They both got the message loud and clear when my friend and coyote hunting buddy, David Coffee, and myself got there and opened up on the two coyotes. The first coyote was 130 yards and the toughest coyote on Planet Earth. This one with me in the picture I sent in to the 9th annual Coyote Cull was a pretty long shot to make on a running coyote, but it went down immediately upon my 6.5 Grendel 120-grain Maker T-REX bullet’s impact.”

Gene Long, of Ellijay, said, “I was interested in trying to trap coyotes as our fawn recruitment rate is low. We never did because I was concerned about catching non-targeted species. After losing a family pet to a coyote last October, we tried it anyway. It took a couple of weeks to figure it out, but I find it very rewarding and enjoy the challenge. Yes we have caught some other animals including our border collie but released them without any physical harm. I would encourage others to give it a try that may be worried like we were. We have 37 acres on East Mountaintown Creek, and this is coyote No. 8 since last October.”
