Getting Into Position
by Geoff Nemnich
A major key to calling in coyotes is being able to sneak into your calling position without the coyotes in the area knowing you're there. Coyotes have an unbelievable sense of hearing, more than four times better than the average hunter! Walk into your stand only as far as you need to and no further. As soon as your vehicle is hidden from the calling area, start looking for a spot to set up. In some cases this may be 50 yards, in others in may be 500.
The less time you spend tromping through the area making noise and exposing your movements to alert coyotes, the more successful you'll be. Keep in mind that in many cases coyotes are coming to the call from less than a half mile. Save your legs and let the coyotes die tired!!
