I agree a shotgun kill would be nice, but it's not an easy task. I've killed my share of deer with a bow and killing a coyote with a shotgun is a bigger accomplishment no doubt. I work during the day as well, but nobody works 7 days a week. haha
I just notice more people trying it at night than in the day time. I've only been doing this a couple of years now and I have learned a ton from just going out and hunting. The way they use the wind and the routes they choose to come in to a call is a big thing I have learned. I have killed a...
I agree 100%. I can sit on the porch and listen to them howl. Going out and putting fur on the ground is a different story. Lots of posts about calling them in and not killing any coyotes.
Every story I have read about night hunting is the same. I had them fired up and they didn't come in or they came in and we spooked them and they ran off. Lots of people are considering it a success to do that. That's not success at coyote hunting. I like to watch them come in, but if I don't...

Went this morning and started with female invitation howls at daybreak. Within 5 minutes heard crunching in the snow from the same direction I walked in. Obviously, I wasn't expecting that so I had to turn to look. Saw a good sized coyote working its way around the hillside. I tried to turn and...
That's what I use. Seems to work pretty well. Some people say the remote doesn't work from far away. I've tested mine out to 200 yards and it works fine.
