cant believe all the effort a person makes to hunt a coyote with no luck and guess what .... had a big ice storm,whole town without power so was out at my dad place were we had wood stove heat.. get up that morning 715 am look out back door and their you have it, 45yds nice large coyote sneak out back door with browning 44mag lever action rifle and bust him, dead dog

seems like most places east of the mississippi have plenty of coyotes but just not real willing to come to a call/

yep i believe their is alot of them around but i cant master the art...wish i could hook up with a few guys who are good at it in our area who could teach me some good things... idk if a person should hunt nite time daytime morning evening or what really wanting to good alot better at it but get so damn discouraged sometime i think im just dumb

i have never personally heard of anyone person that has called in and killed lots of coyotes in the east. just stay after them and don't expect to have the #'s as guys in the west. take what ya get even if it seems futile

i agree best we have done is nite time or early morning till bout 9am..never call one during the day.although we never have good luck on the brite nites..last year i called in 5 dogs in one spot after shooting at 2 of them. this year we have yet to call in a dog im not sure what the deal is ..
