if you can go out and hunt not trap 10 coyotes in one weekend, ill pay you for your secrets. not saying you cant do it, but just saying thats unheard of. i thought i could kill a bunch before i started trying. its really a hard style of hunting to try and call in a coyote. especially with the 40 yard range of a crossbow compared to a 400 yard .223. good luck either way.
