[QUOTE="Gone Ballistic, post: 1948449, member: 26477"] I've had days that if a coyote was made of metal and I had the most powerful magnet on earth I couldn't pull one in. One time I actually heard what I thought was an antelope running up behind me, only to have a coyote run over my back. From over 50 some years of hunting Idaho's mountains and deserts as well as northern Nevada's, I have found one thing that is very common in hunting coyotes everywhere. You can never expect the same reaction from the next coyote you call in but, never start with a high volume level in your call. Additionally, you must keep your vehicle hidden from your approach, work into your call area below the skyline and be stealthy in your setting up of your call and decoy. I like to wait at least 15 minutes after setting up before I start calling. I glass around the area and sometimes use my rangefinder. I have taken far more coyotes with a shotgun than rifle during the winter months but the biggest error most hunters make is over calling and calling too loud. A coyote can hear a mouse scratching it's ear under 4' of snow. [/QUOTE]
