Hello from West Texas,
I just joined this site and have already learned alot. I have shot at many coyotes while out driving around, but I have never worked at calling them in. I took my 14 yr. old son out yesterday evening and we gave it a shot. We walked to a high sandy fence row covered in shinnery overlooking a section of CRP grass. As we walked up to our first spot we had picked out, a stand as you call it?, my son spotted a coyote on the other side about 150 yards out! I told him to hold off and we would see if we could call him up closer. We had his attention for a bit and then he hit the horizon. I should have let him take him, but I wanted to experiment I guess. A great day in the field even though we didn't see anything else. Just makes us want to be out there even worse!
