coyote calling and hunting

[Shootersfab]

Honestly my best coyote hunts have come after goose hunts. Watch your winds, cover your tracks and use a good mouth call. They will come. I have used a 22 mag and 223. And shot gun once

So, I've just finished building my 1st AR, I've got open sights on it, and some ammo. I know someone I can borrow a call from. Are coyotes around all day long, or is morning or evening better? I know there's a ton of 'em out on the eastern plains. What do you do with 'em after they're down?

I've always had better luck in the early mornings and evenings. Some people will tell you it is a waste of time to hunt Coyotes during the day, I have have had some decent day time hunts. I have just had better luck in early mornings and evenings. You can do whatever you want with them. Most people will skin them out to save the fur.

when I go out I hunt all day, UNLESS the winds get up over about 20 mph at which point I will head for the house and wait for better calling conditions. The colder it gets the better the day time calling will be. BUT with that said, the action can be pretty decent all day long. So far this fall, I've had a one day with a freind where we killed 9 and another day with a different freind where we killed 10. I had a solo day out where I killed 7 this fall so far.

Really don't need official permission

Hog Wash...on all private lands, posted or not, you need permission from the landowner. These days with leasing and such, mostly for big game, getting caught on the wrong side of the fence hunting coyotes will be at the very least, a good ass chewin'.. You are right that MOST ranchers want them "all killed", but MOST ranchers also want to know who's on thier land doing what.. and I've even talked to a few that didn't want the coyotes shot, for whatever reason......most ranchers don't give a rats behind about the pheasants that might get killed by coyotes, it's thier livestock that they are wanting to protect. Livestock = livelyhood,... pheasant don't..

Don't skip getting permission! It could cost you your gun, your vehicle, a big fine and your right to hunt Colorado.

In the mountains I've taken coyotes at 20 or so yards with a 12 ga loaded with 3" #2s. I've also taken them as far as 250+ yards with a 22-250 and 243. Unless you are an outstanding shot, you need a scope for that kind of range. They don't stand still for long like a paper target. A scope will really help.

Horrible advice. ALWAYS ASK

Don't let me catch you on my land. I'll be angry.

I love popping coyotes out on the plains. Really don't need official permission. Ranchers want them gone. Kills the young pheasants.

crock of shit! all the ranchers I know and hunt, they catch you shooting shit on their property without their permission, and you may not be leaving the way you came in!
