Too many hunters and toooo much scent.Go yourself,set up on a revene.Or a right of way.In the daytime i use a 223 im good for 250 yards max,i set my call between where i think the yote is coming from.Way less sent to get busted,and a varmint rifle will reach out enough to be up wind 80 yards and if the yote comes downwind 100 you have a 180 yard shot.I kill more that way,but im up in a crosswind also.At night with 4 guys,you dont have much a choice.3 is the most i hunt with but we post sometimes 300 yards apart,and hunt open fields that are hollows.One guy at the mouth,2 splitting both ridge tops.The Call down at the mouth of the hollow,calling upwind into the hollow.These setups work well with 3 to 4 hunters.Take 2 vehicles,park 1 on top,1 at the bottom.No uphill walking,so you dont waste alot of time and tire yourself.And walking downhill creates less sweat.Less stench,on the next setup.Try 2,or even hunt yourself some,and turn the call down,and sit back.Coyotes need water,they can go without some food,but water is there anti-freeze.Creek revenes,near crop farms are good,set up high and watch the narrow funnel areas of the revenes.
Got one this morning,shot from one hill across the other.Took about a hour and 10 minutes to come in.I give them this long on nice mornings,as they have heard it all and it takes them sometimes that long.Morning hunts i hunt 1 spot,and thats it.But i try to do it right.
