chzheadguy Report post Posted April 10, 2015 Hello. I am new to coyote hunting. Glad I decided to hunt them. It is very fun. My wife says she is already sick of it. Is it worth my time to be hunting them right now? What about the summer time. I have a fox pro and would love to hunt year round. Especially since I can not get drawn for anything else.

Vixen Report post Posted April 10, 2015 Hunt them all you want when you want, kill as many as possible, just don't get divorced over it. Save that for a bull tag. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chzheadguy Report post Posted April 10, 2015 I took my wife. She grew up hunting. I have 4 kids so it is a little rough. I am very grateful when my mother in law will watch the kids so I can take her with me. Is it possible to shoot a coyote in the summer or is it a waste of time to go out then? Thanks in advance.

sherman Report post Posted April 10, 2015 I have been hunting yotes for probably 11 years and to be honest I suck at it the two that I have killed I didn't call in and the few I called in I didn't get it done. I would never say it is a waste of time. Just another reason to get out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

photofool Report post Posted April 10, 2015 Right now the females are in the den having pups, they let the males do the hunting. The males are active but very skittish, if they come it at all it will be down wind, very cautious. This has been my experience with the mountain coyotes. Desert dogs may do things differently.

chzheadguy Report post Posted April 11, 2015 I was wondering if hunting them in summer was a waste of time. I don't know if they leave because of the heat, etc. Shot this morning. Had a great time. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Swivelhead Report post Posted April 12, 2015 I've done well in the summer months in the high country. I've also done well in the desert during summer after a strong monsoon storm where the desert is wet and the sky is overcast. Desert cools off and it seems everything comes out to play.

mmtx10 Report post Posted April 20, 2015 The pelt will not be worth as much as they are during winter. Other than that there is not much difference. Your still calling a predator in with hopes of an easy meal. They have to eat all year long. Sure there are specific things that keep a coyote from coming into a set. These things differe from season to season but there is always a need to eat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
