to howl or not to howl

[Coyotehunter]

there is a great conversation going on in another chat forum about howling that I want to make you guys aware of that you may want to follow.

If I wanted to listen to an arguement I'd go to my grandparents house,let alone reading an arguement. Only made it to page two.

first time i visited that forum. there's allot of good info there. as usual, R.R. has great advice i've only went to 4 pages as i'm trying to absorb all that is to say. i know i'm having a hard time"not" howling latley. went out today and made about 6 stands and did'nt see a thing . (just distress) every stand had lots of tracks in the mud so i knew there were coyotes close. last week i heard of a family group of coyotes in a cornfield. i tried baby cottontail along with pup distress. the coyotes would poke there heads out but that was it. (all y.o.y.) none would commit to more than a few feet from cover. after the #'s i got to come into howls this past spring/summer, it's kinda ingrained in me to do it every time now . i don't think i've ever howled in a coyote in minn. n.d. a whole different deal.
