If you want some friendly advice, get a haircut and take a bath. You wouldn't get hassled so much.

I had the same problem this year. I had two pictures of Coyotes coming in very often at night and during the day. They were eating my corn! I had VERY few pictures of deer. I sat all day opening gun and one finally showed up so I busted her. I hated to disturb the peace but it had to be done. Also, as these other fine gentlemen have started, if you see one do everyone a favor and put them in the dirt.

Shoot it or trap it. Or trap it and then shoot it.

Should be easy to trap if you know what you're doing. On the other hand, coyotes are opportunist, I don't believe that just because of their presence, you have no deer at the feeder. I have a pair of yotes that pass by my feeder regularly, have deer on TC within 1-2 minutes sometimes.
You may be like many fellas here that have little activity around corn, deer have a ton of groceries out there this year, acorns are plenty still and many forbs have great growth due to rainfall. Personally, I'd rather have a couple yotes on my place, then be overrun with hogs as some guys are.
If at first you dont succeed, then skydiving is not for you..

It would be easy to blame the yotes, but I bet it is just because the deer arent on the corn right now. Deer know the lack of nutritional value in corn, verses better value in good browse. I was getting several 1000 pics on my TC per week since I have a few gluten does, but now I am getting 20-20 pics a day.
In fact, I sat this morning 39* and calm, super hunting weather, watched does feed on the tree line and in the food plot and only have one doe with fawns visit the protein/corn mix, they where there for just a short time.
Yotes are on every property that holds deer damn near, they have co-habitated for eons. Be glad you don't have feral, or neighbor dogs to deal with, they are far worse. They will chase deer "just because", where a coyote has to factor energy spent vs reward.
