[QUOTE="catman529, post: 4983347, member: 9284"] My first coyote I ever shot was in a bedding area at 10 yards through the spine. It dropped in its tracks and I continued to hunt. Later the does started staging through the bedding area making their way toward a destination food source. They were very uneasy about the coyote, staying in the bushes, stomping, staring at the coyote and sniffing around. Eventually one old nosy doe got curious enough to come out where I could get a shot. I also dropped her in her tracks and had a dead doe and a dead coyote within 10 yards. I don’t think coyotes will run deer out unless the particular yotes in question have a habit of stalking and chasing deer. Kind of like people. Deer will stay a safe distance from non-hunting people but they won’t completely avoid the area if they are used to non hunting human presence. But on property where a lot of people hunt, the deer are more leery of human presence and will avoid hunting pressure specifically. I’d say it’s probably the same with coyotes, since coyotes can have different personalities. Kind of like the discussion a few weeks back about four wheelers. If deer are used to four wheelers and don’t associate them with hunting they don’t care. If the only time they see a four wheeler is when people are sneaking around the woods shooting at them, they’ll spook when they hear the motor coming through the woods. [/QUOTE]
