Default Doe Bleat for coyote call?

I plan on doing some coyote hunting this winter and I want to know if a doe bleat call will work to bring them in close enough for a shot with a bow. Thank Ya

I was useing one, a fawn bleat, and coyotes were barking at me.

So I say it would work.
Get a bleat swing, and use fawn bleat, and long string, and put it where you want them to go.

Good Luck

I used a fawn distress call last sunday and right after I put it away and went to grab my bow handle (bow laying in my lap), had a yote come running in to me and ran right behind my tree. He came in like he was on a string. I never did get a shot off as he spotted me moving my head to my right to see what he was doing so I could draw on him.

A bleat will work just fine, you need to really work it to sound in distress.

Well, I have one of those regular can calls that is a can you turn upside down. I used it during deer season last year trying to call deer in. However, one of the times I was in the stand I used it a few times and next thing I know there was a coyote standing about 50 or 60 yards approx from the stand. It's a $75 bounty if you turn them in so I decided to go ahead and shoot. However, when I clicked the safety off he must have heard as he took off running so I never did shoot.

Now I'm not certain that this call called him in. He may have for some reason just come out into that field at that time however it seems mighty odd and like he may have been coming to that call.

The fawn in distress call is a good one as it's loud if you want it to reach out there and you can tone it down a hair if they're close. It will also draw in does as well. This I know. LOL!

If there are several good regular varmint calls on the market too, as you know and the f-i-d-c wouldn't be my first choice. I've go with a distressed rabbit or woodpecker first.

Good luck.

I was using one about 2 weeks ago while deer hunting and had a bobcat come from behind me and stop at the base of my tree. It definitely brought him in.

I use a squeaker from a dog toy. it has to be the one's that sound like a "straight Squeal" lol. Just put your finger over the hole and as you squeeze it, roll your finger off of it and it sounds like a hurt rabbit.. or something.
