I couldn't get the first coyote stopped and took a panic shot as I was running out of room. Looking at it frame-by frame, it would have been a perfect shot if the trigger had broken anywhere from .52 to 1 second earlier, but as it was, it broke at the top of his bound, and I missed low. The second shot had to have been really close too, but I think it sailed just a bit high.Fortunately, I get a second pair to roll in, and even though one of my tripod legs was collapsing (because apparently, I didn't tighten it enough), I managed to get them both.Then a fourth coyote lopes through, and I can't get him stopped either.After a bit, I get a 5th to come in from downwind and I dropped it.All in all, it's hard to complain about a triple, but missing a gimme tends to leave you wanting.[MEDIA=youtube]0aMLhq74cuQ[/MEDIA][ATTACH=full]88129[/ATTACH]</blockquote>
