right now theirs 2 foot of snow & the temp is below 0 a group of hunters & their dogs were in the woods doing a drive for coyotes my brother was in the area & saw deer running across the field then he saw the hunters to me the hunters were doing more harm to the deer & the turkeys then the coyotes now dont tell me you have to shoot every coyote that walks because theyve been their for yrs & theirs more deer & turkeys then my brothers or i could ever shoot 1 day after a winter thaw we saw 103 turkeys & 47 deer in 1 field i guess the coyotes missed a few

WHAT ARE YOU ASKING HERE I AM MISSING YOUR POINT

Well if you are asking if we'd shoot the hunters or the coyotes, I would say 9 out 10 times I would shoot the coyotes.

im just saying people & their dogs shouldnt be chasing deer around this time of year

i've never heard of anyone putting on a drive for yotes?

I am a little confused too but I agree that constantly chasing deer around makes it much more difficult to pattern them.

hunter60 is it still deer season where you are

trophyhuntr no the season is over what i was trying to get across is the stress is bad enough on the deer with the winters we have been having the last few years that people should think about what their doing to them

Can't drive deer in IL.
It would take the "hunting" thrill right out of it.
I think it would be more like target practice.
Not for me.
