stopping vehicles are to be avoided at all costs. Drive on as if you never saw the coyote, then quickly grab your gear, and sneak back to a ridge top or vantage point where you can see an approaching coyote. Hunting is like playing chess— you need to plan your moves, and think ahead. You want to avoid the long-term effects of educating coyotes. Some states also have strict guide-
lines regarding hunting from vehicles, shooting from inside a vehicle, or having uncased firearms in vehicles. Be certain that you know and obey the hunting laws. Then, press a call to your lips only when you are outside the vehicle, are well concealed, and have your loaded rifle resting across your lap or on the bipod. You are then fully ready to trip the trigger and punch fur as you sit on the ground a long ways away from the truck. 6) I’ve AlwAys Done It lIke thIs Sin: repeating your hunting per-
formance. Coyotes are quick learners, and you need to increase your hunting skills to stay a step ahead of them. If you have called in and then missed a coyote at a location, don’t go back there an hour later, or the next day, and retry the same actions. Move your location, change your calling sequence, and begin the hunt near there with a clean slate. Your previous hunting method has been duly noted by all local coyotes, and you will be forever avoided. 7) FAIlIng to scout
A final sin: failing to seek and find.
If you like driving home with an empty truck after a coyote hunt, just simply go hunting, call blindly, and wonder where the coyotes are. Successful hunters seek and pattern coyotes like other very suc- cessful hunters pursue trophy elk and white-tail deer. Those skilled hunters scout often for coyotes, use trail cameras constantly, look for game trails and coyote tracks, and spend as much time glassing and looking for song dogs as they do hunting them. Scouting makes the difference between talking about coyote hunting, and actually being a successful coyote hunter. Much like religion, if you want to
“advance” as a hunter, you need to pay attention to all details, follow the com- mandments, and scrupulously avoid the un-deadly sins.
