Coyote hunting in timber

[Honfor500]

Anyone do any predator calling in heavy timber? I don't have alot of open fields but alot of predators

I do a little, it’s super tough often times shooting lanes are 30-40 yards maybe

Better luck at night with a thermal. Problem is coyotes will take advantage of cover and get downwind. I use a Foxpro and typically stick to vocals at short intervals.

It is difficult. Like you, we have an established population. Kill more incidentally while deer hunting than specifically targeting them. They wise up quick also

I do it quite a bit. I actually have a lot more luck in timber than open fields.

If I'm not night hunting over fields I'm in the woods calling. Deer trails work well for me, but it can be tough with the wind. Shotgun with BB or buckshot.

Following, planning on targeting them in the timber here in MD post deer season. From the little I've done, them getting down wind in the bottoms is definitely a problem.

Check out MFK on YouTube. He hunts the thick stuff and does very well at it.

Use the terrain to your advantage so they can’t wind you. I like setting up with a big pond, river, fence, etc on my downwind side. Something they won’t cross.
