I do from time to time.
Years back, I tried to use a food attractant scent. And that didn't seem to work consistently. I was fooling with sounds (hearing) so I thought I would fool with their nose.
Skunk quill is by far the loudest cover scent I could use, but never wanted to transport it in my pickup or hunting coat. I just didn't want to chance an accident.
I quickly changed to curiosity scents, glands, urines and more natural additives.
What I came up with is not a food scent or cover scent, but a mixture of blended, aged, natural scents.
This scent, when it did come into play, seem to stop Coyote for several seconds while they evaluated the scent combination.
Sounds perfect.
But not so.
What I find when wind is not a factor...scent is useless. Or more often, a Coyote stops behind brush or tree or in a ravine, out of site to get a better smell. This Coyote is not hiding from me, it's just where he stopped to get a better whiff, by chance out of my site and I have no control over that.
In my observation, to hunt Coyote the best I can, I should walk through the barnyard before the hunt and use my woodmenship while afield.
