Went out coyote hunting for the first time today. I couldn't sleep last night because I was so excited like it was christmas. I got up early and headed out before sunrise. I started calling abit after the sun came up. I called for about 40 mins and decided nothing was working so I was going to move along. I set my rifle down and opened a pack of hot hands because they were colder than a witch's teet. Next thing I know..about 50 yards or less from me.. sure enough a coyote comes runnin in hot. I reached for my gun and turned back towards the coyote and he was already headed for the hills! He ran down into a drainage ditch and never had a good shot unfortunately. I tried to call him back but he was long gone.
It was my first time calling and I used a mouth call so I was happy I was atleast able to call one in!
they come in like silent ghosts! sometimes a shotgun is your best method of take!Quote:

You got way more patience than I do. Most coyote will show with-in 7-9 minutes, many times much quicker. I rarely sit in one spot for more than 20 minutes.
And if you mean you don't need a hunting license, that's not true either. Small game license (or unused big game license for the unit during its validity - and you have to use a valid big game method of take for that season and unit).Quote:

A lot of variables to concider such as coyote density, calling conditions, terrain, how loud I'm calling, etc...I normally don't call very loud because I'm not trying to bring a coyote from a mile away for a couple of reasons. 1) I don't usually sit long enough for them to cover 1 mile and 2) it's often times difficult to convince a coyote to travel 1 mile or more, and hence much easier to convince them to travel 1/2 mile or less.
Hey Paper what is the round limit you can have in your gun for coyote hunting....5 or up to 10? for an AR-15 of course.
here in Colo., there is no mag. limit for hunting coyotes,......there is a 5 rd. limit for big game, but NOT for coyotes. SO, where one might get into a little confusion is if you were to buy a big game license and be hunting big game, but decided to hunt coyotes at the same time, then you'd still be restricted to 5 rds. as if you were hunting big game only.
