Coyote in VA.
Out where we hunt (Culpepper, Va), there are a lot of Coyote. Last time we were out, I had just gotten in my stand about 200 yards down an old logging trail. It was about 5:00AM, and pretty still. After I had gotten situated, radioed my dad and step-brother to let them know I was in my stand, loaded my gun and got quieted down, I started hearing some yipping from the ravine 100 yards infront of my stand. It got progressively louder and sounded like a whole group of them. Now where we hunt it’s basically a 75 acre plot with everything from creeks to ravines, fields, and thick brush. We really want to try some Coyote hunting this year. They are classified as a nuisance in VA, and hunting is legal all year (except Sunday). So my question is what’s the best way to hunt Coyote in VA? I mean we’ve already proven that they are on the property, what area is best to hunt them, how should I attract them? I am planning on using a .243 or a 12 gauge to hunt them.
