Narrative:
We had a gear up landing in [a TBM700]. I was flying with my son; and the good news is that we are both fine; but the airplane does not look too good. I'm embarrassed that this happened and a little unsure of what occurred. I did a go-around on our first attempt because a couple of coyotes were crossing the runway. I must have retracted the gear on the go-around and then not realized that the gear was up on the second approach. Usually I put the gear down to slow the airplane; but since we were already slow; I thought it was already down. The gear warning horn did not sound because I had only 10 degrees of flaps in.
