Summer Coyotes?

[Justin2111]

Anyone been out calling this summer?

We scout hard in the summer, but do no calling or shooting till the fur is prime.

We noticed in the area we hunt elk the low number of deer and fawns we seen so we have been trying to thin them out a bit in just one area, this is the first summer I have hunted coyotes.

In Tennessee the fur never gets prime so we shoot them year round. The pups are out of the den running with the adults eating fawns so we hit them hard this time of year. The pups are easy and plentiful. The coyote pup and ki-yi is especially effective.

And no, you can't hurt the population, especially here in the east. The more you kill, the more pups they have.

Last year I lost 12 calfs to coyote kills,about $8000.00 I shoot them all year long.

Been trying to get out but with our temps in the high 90's with high humidity it's kinda tough on me,
