Damn good job!
Now that I filled my buck tag my focus is turning to yotes, chukar, and waterfowl.
Curious what your tactics would be for this high desert country out back of my property. I know there are quite a bit of yotes out here but haven't hunted them yet since I've only been here since August.
I've got a foxpro, but dont have any thermal set up yet. This is the kind of country I'm in.View attachment 794471View attachment 794470

That's nice terrain!

I'd be scouting it for travel routes by sitting in a spot with views of the most "hips" looking rollers there. I'd also figure out where they are getting water, whether it's from streams, canals, or pockets that hold it in the hills there.

Are there lots of rabbits and/or squirrels at the bases and up the rises of the rollers? Coyotes LOVE sitting near the top of the gradual slopes that frequent ground squirrels and rabbits. They hunt from above and you can catch them sitting out near the tops.

They also like to bounce rollers blocking them from wind and will use the most gradual slopes are travel routes.

If you’re not calling, how are you getting all these coyotes?
