Well, I bought a Primos Power Dogg, couldn't pass it up for $129.00 at Gander Mountain. I'm going to get a few mouth calls as well. I know people talk about the Foxpro Spitfire as the best entry, but the Power Dogg is about as loud as I have heard distressed animals while in the field.
I'm going to try and go out in early January, I have just the spot picked out on the back of my land, it's where we see most of them.

shot 2 coyotes in same spot this week.male/female.that i have not ever done.both were real close and i shot 2 quick shots from my beretta 12 ga.no lights/in dark/with good moon out.
secret was again,MY SUMMIT 180 MAX CLIMBING TREESTAND AT 12 FT.location was good too. i set up where 2 trails met they pipeline.
guess what, both coyotes came up path and STOPPED before entering the wide open pipeline field.
guys, they are getting spooky or smart so set-up where they will use path ,NOT IN FIELDS.

Charlie...I used to a lot of predator hunting at night...
In the southern zone, you could use a shotgun with #4 shot or smaller OR a rimfire rifle.. No slugs, buckshot or centerfire rifles allowed.. That was before 17 rimfires, so it pretty much limited you a shotgun with small shot or a .22 or .22 mag rifle...
Now that regulations have been relaxed on rifles, it may have changed.. I have seen posts by fellows in western NY using .22 centerfires at night for 'yotes.. Check the regs or talk to your local fish cop...
