[QUOTE="devins, post: 499515, member: 27441"] Ralph, I know what you are talking about too. I have friends out in really open country in New Mexico and they tell me the same thing. I notice too that as the trends of what we are hunting cycle the behavior cycles too. As we start calling and hunting them more you see them hanging back more, may be they are getting wise to us or that we eliminate the younger less educated easily and leave the slower more cautious moving and as a result you will get more hanging back. Called in two for a friend on one place a few weeks ago and the second stand and second coyote held at about 400 yards only letting me see its face around the downed cedar it was next to. Normally as they come in you don't need the binos but it held at that cedar watching until I couldn't take it any more and when I positioned the rifle it was watching me, obviously because I had been doing the calling. But since it was on the side of the downed cedar it was opposite of my buddy and he never saw it. But where we hunt is decieving. It looks fairly flat and open but there are tons of terrain breaks and much more cover than you immediately notice and we have tons of coyotes. So typically we are not seeing them until they have already begun there swing downwind. I try to find a big open hillside so I can watch them come in but like our whitetailed deer they are pretty good at utilizing our ruff terrain and staying hidden until they start the swing toward the sown wind side.
