You want to kill more coyotes this winter … right? For now, set aside the off-the-wall strategies and gizmos. The simplest answer to more coyotes is to hunt with a partner. Here’s why.
The clock is ticking on the fur season, and this might be your last chance to call in a coyote. Try these strategies—howls, whines and other vocalizations—to bring a coyote running and end the season on a positive note.
The West is a great place to hunt predators, but expect longer shot distances, open terrain and stronger winds. Update your gear so it’s prepared to meet the challenge.
Coyotes, like other predators, cannot resist a ringside seat to a good fight. So create the sounds of your own “fight club.” Yips, growls, barks—they all may work to lure a member of a local coyote family bickering among itself.
By this time of year, coyotes have seen it all and heard it all. The standard rules—how far to walk before setting up, how long to stay on a set, what calls to use—do not apply. If ever there were a time to throw the dogs a curve, it is now. It’s time to change the rules.
