Was at a rendevouse today shot two rounds ,self bow and recurve. Was in the third round just goofing and that little voice came and started talking to me. Said my good buys and was out of there . First stand was only ten minutes away. Howled one in but would not come in close. Second stand Did two greating howls waited a few minutes and did three chalenge howls ,got an immediate chalenge back. Did anouther and got one from the back of me real close. Was looking for the one in that came in my back . Seen this dark thing coming in fast it slows at about 150 yards out and starts walking in but starting to vearing away . Holy @#$@@ Its the black one. Still had the howler gave two barks and he puffs up and in he comes troting in to the decoy tail tucked between his legs and he's on fire. gets between me and the decoy and the arrow on its way. Oh No Hit too far back. He spins and hits the after burnners . gets 50 yards and spins again and takes of. Wait a bit and find my arrow. It had some blood on it . No blood on the ground . Dang. Started tracking it it left foot prints but they was few and spred out, orchard got irigated a few days back. At about 80 to 100 yards I start finding blood,just little spots but looking lots better.
another 70 to 80 yards I see this. Yeeee haaa. Not black but real dark silver.
Thinking two to three year old male. Looked real cool moving in the trees . The rancher and workers been telling me about this guy .Looked real cool moving in the trees.

I agree with Dogboy.....you're hell on the yotes. Looking at this ones coat/undercoat I can see why he'd appear black when moving or with the wind blowing. Nice Kill!
