[QUOTE="eyeball 2, post: 499780, member: 8976"] thanks for the reply. i have a gung=ho coyote friend i hunt with who even insists i drive into the country we are going to hunt WITH THE WIND. we walk downwind, sit and call downwind to a large area. He insists if we drive upwind, stop and call -that we have driven through the country the coyotes are in that would have otherwise come to us from. i know dogs directly downwind smell us and will not come in, but those off to the side and downwind do come as they are swinging downwind. the trick is to nail 'em before they get directly downwnd. i would hate to try to take someone from far away as i almost wont hunt in daylight if the moon isnt up in the day. with the winds out here you can loose a whole weekend if it blows. there is good hunting in oct, nov, and dec but i am usually deerhunting then. there are young dogs then that call better. out here calling is poor if the wind is high in jan, feb, march and i only hunt then if conditions are right- making lsat minute plans. new mexico has lots of blm but i would plan on staying several days if i made the trip. we've been in drought and quail and rabbits are very scarce a few years. i dont know if this has reduced the dog pop. or the increase in contests, but this was a pretty bad year. i would sure be anxious abt trying to plan something. if you are going to be in this area in feb though, get in touch. take care, good hunting and good fortune. thanks, rc [/QUOTE]
