yes interesting conversation is right! and kinda fun I might add, it is fun to see the differences in hunt styles, tactics and stories.

you are right about the eastern coyotes territories being smaller, it is obvious. we have much smaller pieces of land out here. coyote to human contact is much greater out here and less coyotes.

calling styles don't change for me anytime during the year (we can hunt em year round) exept during mating season, I use female mating howls during this time. As I said if your calling is good enough then you will trick em. Cause a territory conflict get em moving, then give them something you know they can handle (distress)

What ever works for you is super, whatever works for me is great, we are talkin about 2 different parts of the country, different terrian, thus different tactics. I don't even remember how we got into this, I think someone said to make them wind you, That just didn't jive with me.

p.s. coyotes are one of the smartest and most adaptable animals out there, but they are still stupid, thats why we can shoot them. if they were smart they would think logically and form a plan and use all their great senses to investigate something, but they can't and because of this we are able to shoot them. Just like every other animal.
