I have a lot of coyotes at my deer lease. With 4 cameras watching 4 feeders, I see coyotes almost every day on camera. With that said, I bought a foxpro and was all but certain, I would call coyotes out immediately despite no experience doing so. Well, I have tried calling on two different days with no success.

My lease is pretty heavy with mesquites and but there is a crop field that starts at the road and goes 200 yards in and is 300 yards wide. After you go 200 yards in from the road, the crop field ends and mesquites start up and are about 200 yards thick before you reach a clearing that is roughly 75 yards by 50 yards. This clearing is where I see a lot of coyotes. Is this clearing big enough to hunt them?

I have tried calling from the crop field, set up along the fence line with the wind blowing from the call to my position. I have been setting the call up about 40 yards from the edge of the mesquites and about 100 yards from my location. Once I went straight into rabbit in distress and turned it all the way up. I called for about an hour. The other attempt I tried using a little what I have read and started with a locater call or pup howl then rabbit in distress, then I think I used pup in distress but I am not sure.

How far should I set the caller from my position? Which calls should I be using and for how long and how loud? How far will coyotes hear and respond to calls? Basically, any tips on calling these coyotes? I am going next Monday and hope to have a better game plan for round three.

Gotta fool their nose too, make sure your call is not downwind of you.
