Your mouth calling is absolutely amazing man well done!

[@Rockfordfosgate3406]

Excellent video thank you! Literally answered 99% my questions as a starter in hunting coyotes, all in one video. Thank you! Awesome knowledgeable video!

[@JK_450]

Thank you for this video. I've just started coyote hunting in the last two years and I haven't had much success calling. You've given me a lot to add into how I set up my stands and how I use and choose my calls and in what seasons.

[@angelaprater2679]

Pretty good video I.ve hunted coyote for 30yrs hand calling and electric decoys from a toy to a feather on fishing line to coyote decoys best hunt ever was a no kill but called in 2 different packs 1 from west and a pack from the east we was about 325 yrds when both packs came out seen each other the fight was on, east winning the fight west pack broke ran for wood line of old fence roll. We was in all 1.00 am lasted about 3 1/2 min they put on a show. It's hard not to love it I.m 64 look out the window everyday.

[@smmalafa1]

I’m glad a lot of these new hunters in the last few years are giving up on coyote hunting. I’ve notice a big difference it he last two years on how much more responsive the yotes are now compared to 5 years ago.

[@tylerthompson4940]

Just got into coyote hunting after deer season. Seeing and hearing so many during deer season made more interested. But great video, lot of helpful info for a green coyote hunter.

[@MattProfa]

Totally new to coyote hunting! Thanks for the insight.

[@gptanker]

Your surname indicates otherwise.

[@angelaprater2679]

This was a great training video start for the beginners I .ve been hunting 30 yrs now. Everything you said was dead on.

[@richturner1624]

Excellent calling with the diaphragm! I recorded several sounds and experimented. The most successful one was a lonely kitten. Really good information, thank you!

[@dsmith7722]

Great video. I just bought the Foxpro Hammerjack 2 from Basspro, but the next day they dropped the price on the Foxpro Hi-Jack. I called Foxpro and they recommended the Hi-Jack, so I ordered it and will be returning the Hammerjack. I'm new to predator hunting and these videos are great for us beginners.

[@lawrenceharvey976]

I'm new to hunting coyote thank you for explaining the windage I been hunting them the same way I hunt deer I believe I see what my mistakes now thank you again

[@walterhyder3059]

Fantastic introductory video for the enthusiastic beginner.

[@austinhowell7074]

I've hunted all my life and have downed more coyotes than I can count, but recently I've started getting more and more into predator hunting just to fill the gaps between deer and turkey season. This is a great video for beginners like me! I spend enough time on our land to know where coyotes run I'm just looking to learn more about how to bring them to me. All in all - GREAT video. Thanks for sharing, brother!!

[@austinhowell7074]

Thanks so much for all your help, brother! One of the biggest questions I can't seem to get a dial on is this; What is your go-to call for first setting up? I know there are dozens of vocalizations dependent on a thousand different things, but when you first set up do you use a distress call or do you howl, yip, bark? I have no idea how to start a set out.

[@austinhowell7074]

At the moment I'm experimenting with both electronic and mouth calls. Usually starting low with a distress call...A couple mutes of calling, followed by a couple minutes of silence throwing in lone howls every now and again.

[@billbertagnoli4226]

Great video ☺️. In winter in northern Michigan. The coyotes will follow the deer once the snow adds up. Hunting your fall deer locations will be a bust. In some areas they yard in cedar swamps. Other places they Will stay in timber but with lots of Cover.

Really great video! looking to get into predator hunting to fill the gaps between your typical hunting seasons. (Deer, Turkey, Small Game, Etc.) Also had a fascination with the predator hunters out there and want to get into it myself. This video was really informative and greatly appreciated for a true beginner with no predator hunting background such as myself!

[@justa3v619]

I know this is an old video but Im just now getting into trying this out kinda like others have said just to scratch the itch to hunt between deer seasons. I was just wondering if I do shoot a coyote fairly early in the hunt is that hunt pretty much over because Im not using a suppressor or will more come to the call if they are in the area? Also after I kill that first one do I need to remove it (would the dead coyote scare off others) or just leave it lay till the hunt is over? Thanks for the video I cant wait to try my 6.5 Grendel out on these things.

[@hardthornedoutdoors7961]

Let it lay and keep calling, I’ve shot triples not suppressed. If I shoot one coyote I’ll do a pup distress sequence for 5-10 minutes after usually

[@Hunterslife315]

Great thing about hunting for me, even deer or bear I love making flies for rainbow and steelies. I use almost every pc of the animal. Nothing goes to waste.

[@scottrobinson7490]

It's not only to control large animals, but it's also to control your upland game too

[@milspecmachine3014]

Beginning of October is great here In Arizona it seems like the pups are getting kicked out for f the den so they most likely haven't been called in and shot at & missed.... I call through June and have great success.

How do you hunt coyotes in timber?

[@matthelton2387]

Imma just play your video on my phone in the field no need to bring calls 😂

[@greghamacher7649]

I just bought ICOtech 300 caller took it out yesterday to my deer hunting spot since deer season is done here and have seen coyotes in my bait on the trail cams. I setup in the best I could along the edge of the bush staying down wind best I could, set the call up along the fenceline which left me a nice bit of clearing between the call and bush area, used jackrabbit distress got instant response of yips growing to howls moving in my direction tried another distress and they were still moving closer with barks and yips, tried to answer with some barks back and a howl and they hung up never saw or got a shot at any, any advise?

[@steenosrs8077]

Yeah, if they're coming don't change tactics.

[@toddk1377]

If you know they are approaching, just keep using the same call or similar. I would only change sounds if I'm not seeing anything. Also, depending on the time of year and what not, sometimes the howl just isn't effective. I primarily use the howl call to locate and call during breeding season. Otherwise it's mostly animal in distress and the occasional howls, yips and barks followed by more animal in distress and this is using the same Icotek 300 caller.

[@mikeedwards2384]

We have a serious coyote problem it's nothing to go out on our porch and hear 2 or 3 packs raising hell at any given night

[@thomaspalmer7900]

Great video!!! I have really took interest in coyote hunting. I have very little knowledge on where to get equipment. Where can I purchase an electronic caller?? I have a 12 gauge shotgun & a .22 LR caliber rifle. Is a .22 LR a good caliber rifle a good choice for hunting coyotes?? Very informative & yes subscribed

How long should I call for?

I bow hunt should I stick with the 30-50 yard kill zone or?

[@hardthornedoutdoors7961]

100-300 yards I’d say when yote hunting

[@komranbehbehani6379]

Why use a bow? Use a nuke duh!

[@Sahara200]

Great video thanks. So your out there all set up and calling them. If you hear them answering back or not how long do you recommend staying in that location before moving to your next stand. Thank you for your help I'm a newbie but know I'm going to enjoy it.

[@darylbentley7240]

20-30 minutes before moving

[@toddk1377]

It's never the same. I've called a coyote in after less than 5 mins after distress call, other times I called for over 35 mins off and on before one came in. If I have only 3-5 stands for the day, I'll stay at least an hour at each stand unless I shoot one. If I have 10 stands I can hunt that day, then usually 30-40 mins and I move on. Sometimes coyotes are very timid and won't break from cover and need to be coaxed in to the call with a good call sequence and patience.

[@collinsthompson3508]

Will calling coyotes with your techniques work just as effective for bobcat? I hunt in Texas and a bobcat is top of my list however I only get coyotes coming in. My initial thought is all the mesquite cover (mesquite is everywhere here) keeps me from seeing them. Should I add some sort of visual bait where I can draw them into the open? If so what is your suggestion? Great video by the way, found it today and just subscribed to your channel.

[@Phoenix_Atlas]

I'm taking my girlfriend on her first coyote hunt next week. We're cold calling though because I don't know any ranchers around here. I've only shot predators a few times if your not counting alligators. A bobcat tried to take my dog once.

[@dhooter]

Eastern or western coyote. Huge difference in my opinion. Western coyote will come to damn near any call. Eastern not so much. Alot smarter from my experience.

[@JoeyTheNit]

This is because Eastern coyotes have some wolf genetics in them.

[@dhooter]

@@JoeyTheNit I've read some do and some do not. Some say they have dog DNA others say no. From hunting both I've found easterns to be larger and smarter. So many times I've called not seen or heard anything only to find tracks on my back trail that weren't there going in. Gerry Blaire states in him book an eastern coyote called in and missed will almost never respond to a caller again. Good book he wrote.

[@roguemanmoto4629]

With an electronic call running prey distress sounds, what rate do you generally call at? For example one minute on two minutes off? Thanks in advance! Great video, very helpful. I believe with your tips I should see my success rate increase greatly!

[@randy4134]

I called in 4-5 coyotes in last night. Cottontail distress, field mouse, rodent distress, pup distress, female invitation howl we’re all used. I wait 30 seconds to 2 minutes between calls.

[@sharpnr445]

Coyote sign, do it the easy way, follow a road, look for poo, if you find some it almost always will have fur in it same for fox. Coyotes travel roads, it conserves energy, easier travel. Rifle? Flat shooting rounds like .223, 22-250 or any round you are competent with, doesn't matter. Make sure your clothes have NO odor, many wear tall rubber boots to eliminate scent.
