We have a coyote problem here. I'm not a hunter but a good shot, variety of guns. Groundhogs I rid with just a 12ga., 00buck shot. I have a Ruger .243 & scope for distance.
Our outdoor cats I put up at night in a large chain link gazebo (it has a thermostat heated room). Months ago just at dark I was walking near cat pen, saw a coyote trotting toward me and quickly went into garage for a while.
Garage upstairs the windows face back of property and I've seen coyote with binoculars but hundreds of yards away.
Last night we get home about 10pm and one is loudly calling out behind us I'm guessing only 200ft away.
Questions I have are best time to hunt? I'm thinking those garage windows would be a great spot?
My neighbor hunts, I believe he has an electronic caller (rabbit distress & other calls). Would that be good? How about bait?
Coyote is the trickster I've heard. They're a nuisance. One neighbor friend had a calf with a bleeding torn belly (it finally healed). I'm no expert but I was wondering coyote.
