COYOTES
Make sure you are using some sort of a scent mask,
and being downwind will help carry whatever de-
tectable scent you have on you, away from the direc-
“
tion of your line of sight. Hunting these predators in the
summertime, and even in early spring, is best, because
they will be moving quite a bit for mating and breeding
seasons. Coyotes are very smart, and highly aware of
their surroundings, so even if they’re looking for a mate,
don’t think that they will be so easily distracted.
Rifles are usually the weapon of choice because of
their easy modifications and scope add-ons, but check
with your area to make sure there aren’t any restrictions
before you begin your hunt. A simple deer rifle is more
than capable of taking down a coyote, as long as you
are patient and swift.

Coyotes are native to most of North America but are
often spotted more frequently in the north and north-
west parts of the United States. Coyotes have some of
the best hearing and eyesight, and as predators, they
will naturally hide and stalk, rather than just roaming
around in the open. The best way to take a coyote is
to find a secluded area at the edge of a clearing or in
the bushes, even up in the trees works. From there,
you’ll have to wait it out.
