Pulled my camera card after not seeing much the past week or so..... and all I can say is too many damn yotes! Several times a week they cross here and theres always at least two! Heres 4 running together!
start shooting them. Ive had one shot at one in my stand and messed that up because i let out a "meeeh" to get him to stop and he just took off
Start trapping? If they're using the same area a set could work perfect, and a lot of fun. I tried trapping coyote and its tough when you've never trapped anything before but I had a blast, although I never got one!
looks like the one on the corn would have a high value pelt...I think I'm gonna start huntin' em with a crossbow- I love predator calling...almost as much as deer.
Go to your local outdoor shop and let them know you have a problem and you will have no problem getting volunteers to help you shoot them after the season. One remedy I heard of is soaking tennis balls in bacon greese and throwing them out. Evidently the coyotes swallow the whole ball and it stops them up until the die... don't know if it works... Sounds kind of out there? maybe someone has heard of this?
If I can't get this guy or his family, I plan on going back in Jan after deer season and calling them in. Then I can use my thunder stick (30.06) with my new scope
Do they eat corn? How many are at your feeders? I checked into the Bacon Greese Tennis Ball things. What I was told by a hunting guide is to use 3 inch square pieces of sponge soaked in deer blood at a gut pile. Obviously they will fill up on the tasty sponges and then won't be able to pass them and will eventually get sick and die. Sounds pretty cruel but is probably pretty effective.
Before i opened your thread i had a response in mind along the lines of, do yotes really bother deer? Then i saw your picture. You gots a problem son.
