Just as a follow up, I saw another coyote in the field the following Monday evening after this initial deal. Time to put the hurt on our local coyote population!

I really need to talk to my neighbors and get permission to shoot any coyote I might see in their yards.
One has 1.5 acres right next to me, and at least half of that ground would be a safe direction to shoot from my deck. If I went into the yard, I could maybe make another 10% of it safe enough to take a shot.
The other neighbor has a cow pasture, with a safe shot across about 3 acres of that land (some of the rest would be unsafe to shoot toward, since the farmhouse is in that direction behind a short patch of woods).
I hear coyotes howling and spooking the herd at least two nights a week.
I've never seen a 'yote in there, but then, since I don't have permission to shoot across the property line onto that pasture land, I've never sat on my deck with my rifle in my lap either.

Good luck, hopefully they will give you permission to shoot there.
get some MB550 traps after you get your free landowner trapping lic from dnr
Now he is one educated COYOTE... He will be one hard pest to get now, don't ever push a shot if you know it "AIN'T A GOOD SHOT".
just simple experience that's all, just consider this before pulling the trigger...

Just had a large pak of yotes come up to the house ..just had let my dog in and then heard them behind the house..six to eight sets of eye balls..for those in Ballground area be on the look out..fired at them but scared them off...
Have shot 3 here in my backyard over the last few years. Heard one a while back and just today checked the trail cam on the front drive and saw this little one.
Have a camera on a game trail crossing my drive, coyotes on it 3-4 nights a week. We are ate up with them up here.
Caught these on my trail cam.
Don’t like the look of them
