well cat man i think you have it made,you relize your mistakes and are trying to correct them,thats a major hurdle you have leaped.some habbits die hard so give it some time.its sometimes easy for any body to get careless in there set up,when it comes to the coyote we all make mistakes from time to time.its not uncommon to have a coyote make a large 250,300 or more yard circle and bust a hunter.this is one reason they can be diffacult to hunt at night.as far as camo you just proved it can be done without good camo but its a whole lot easyer to go undetected when you blend in well.the key word here is movement.a predator keys in on movement,he has to his survival depends on it. he can detect the slightest movment from great distances,if your gun is not up and in the ready position when he appears you more in likly won't raise it to shoot.after each sequence of calls get the gun up and be ready to shoot in the direction you figure he's going to show up from.then of caurse he throws a wrench in the spoaks and shows up way to your right or left,its just the way it is.for bobcats your right stay at least 30 to 40 min,if the snow is deep stay longer.the one advantage to staying longer is you will get stragler fox and coyote showing up 25 to 30 min into a stand set.and again if the snow is deep this is a very probable posibility.to answer skyhighs question,sometimes in deep snow it is hard to tell tracks apart.the best way to tell the difference between gray fox red fox and coyote is by the size of the paw print and the stride length.a gray fox is easy to tell, his paw prints are small around 1 1/2 inch long and his stride is short when walking,around 8 to 12 inches.a reds paw prints are 2 1/2 inches long and his stride is longer around 9 to 16 inches.both type fox tracks will apear to have one foot in front of the other,kinda like this * * * * a coyotes paw print is about the same as a red fox believe it or not, about 2 1/2 inches.his stride will be much longer though,around 18 to 22 inches.his tracks in the snow and mud will look something like this ** ** ** ** one rear foot right behind a front foot.these stats are bsaed on adult animals, walking at a normal gate.when troting or running every thing changes,its sometime hard to tell.sometimes it apears that a pup coyote track look like an adult red fox track becouse the pup coyotes stride is short.and of course all three animals have an oval shaped paw prints,a domestic dogs print will be round.
