After taking the random coyote that had the misfortune to be around while deer/turkey hunting, I decided to try specifically for a coyote. After messing around, I got serious tonight.
I was following a call sequence I had just read about yesterday.
Setup in one spot that was very brushy, very windy. Nothing.
Moved at dusk to a much better spot. Hit the coyote locator for 3 minutes and they went bananas across the valley!
Switched to a coyote death cry and they came at full speed. I had set up where I thought they would have to cross an open area of the field (instead of taking the long way around a 400yd long field). The first two were so fast, I didn't have time. The third wasn't as lucky. At 125yds, I didn't lead quite enough on this pretty male.
Question: I guess the other coyotes have been "educated" on the calls now? Any advice for going back after them: left it rest a few weeks, different calls, etc.
