Calling after deer season starts

[BeardownAZ]

Anyone notice the animals get more shy or not? I try and call low once the mule deer hunts end and wait to go higher after all the whitetail hunts in my area. Think the pressure might get to em alil. I have also noticed though how many people think coyotes are stupid and call not watching movement, wind, or how to use a call. To many lazy bad habits educating them as well.

I'm no expert but I would think after hunting they would be moving around more looking for gut piles but then again all the people n gin shots might make them hesitant.

Thats what I was thinking too. I know one thing though, there are coyotes everywhere Ive been. Looking forward to doing more calling especially once it all dies down.

older gent I use to chat with use to say they know what day of the week it is... LOL!

he would say... I don't like to go out on the weekends anymore... mondays are ok, tuesdays are good, wednesdays and thursdays are best!

he was pretty funny!

from my experience when they get alot of traffic it tends to keep em cautious, but if you walk in a bit further from the roads and give them some cover to feel more comfortable they still come in.

theyre skittish because every tom dikk and harry try to call predators now

one of my deer spots had yotes all over the place yipping and howling, maybe that's why I didn't see any bucks around. have you guys ever hunted to yotes in your deer spot, would the traffic and sound of gun fire move the bucks out of that section for good?

over the years working as a cowboy I have seen every year before deer season couse bucks would stay up on the ridges all day the second morning of season they come off at day light and go out into the flats I would see lots of deer behind guys glassing the ridges I had a good picture of a 120 inch deer laying on a little knoll with a guy glassing right in front of him less than 50 yards I had seen the same deer use that spot 3 years running if you headed towards him he was gone in two jumps he now resides on my wall deer get to know people just like anything else there have been some does i could ride within 20 feet of they seen me every day and know I am not any danger but a stranger come into sight and they run for cover heck we do the same thing when the snow birds flay south we change our habits don't go out as mutch spend less time a restrants and bars to avoid crowds they are no different there as far as calling coyotes goes I hunt more off highways and well traveled dirt roads so I can use traffic noise to cover my noise and walk farther than any uther time of year I do agree with coyotes knowing what day it is I call more late in the week than early I know all animals can be trained to be in a area the same time every day I have done it with horses to deer and hogs had a bunch of wild hogs in okla that would at the feeder at 5 every day except sat and sun they where on public land that was hunted hard those days

Isnt that what we want? More predator control...

a lot of good people, not a lot of people educating them. I mostly educate.

[BeardownAZ]

I think alot of people see coyotes dead on the side of the road or see them trotting across the road and think they are easy to hunt or stupid cause they are everywhere. They're everywhere cause they are smart. I probably educate too

We all educate coyote. It's what keeps plenty of them around for is to hunt. Just gotta play the odds and stick with it. Some days you get lucky and find a few dumb one.... most days you don't.
