SULLIVAN COUNTY — After new legislation from Governor Kathy Hochul’s office banned certain hunting contests, the Federation of Sportsmen’s Clubs of Sullivan County hosted their final coyote hunting contest before the new law goes into effect in November.

Over the weekend of February 2-4, 115 coyotes were taken and entered in the contest. The first place winner, Lucas Price, harvested a coyote that weighed 52.90 pounds.

The entry was good for the largest on Friday of the 34 that were entered, as well as the overall winner out of the 115.

The second place finisher, a 52.65 pound coyote taken by Greg Reed, was also entered on Friday.

Curtis Smida’s 48.40 pound coyote was good for third place and was the largest entry on Saturday.

Sunday’s largest entry was John Hilton’s 46.30 pound coyote.

Adrianna Kautz was the Youth Winner and Jordan Hollenbeck was the Female Winner.

Of the 450 registered hunters for the weekend, 350 attended the banquet celebrating another successful contest.
