I live in Jackson Co. W.Va. which is on the Ohio river,so my terrain is much like south eastern Ohio..We have had coyotes for a while,but not many,so I have never took up hunting them,and really know very little about them..Well to make a long story short a friend of my Mother that lives up the road from her found her little dog dead with it's head all chewed up,and now my Mother is scared to let her dog out of her site..I told her I would come out some evening,and try to shoot one...From what I understand is that I need some sort of call,and I have looked on Ebay,but there are so many .Are the kind that you blow into more realistic than the cheap type electronic ones(I don't want to spend any more than I need to).,and if I do go with a blow call do they require a certain skill?..I would be hunting in large open fields,or bottoms,so I assume that at a good distance shooting at the center of the coyote is the way to go..I intend on using my 223,but still on the fence about bullets.I have 63 gr Sierra SMP,and 55 gr Hollow points that I bought bulk packaged from Midway.They both shoot well so I would like to get some advice on which I should use..It is hard for me to get away at dark,so I would be hunting most in daytime..I assume evening is best,but I may be wrong..Any advice is appreciated..Thanks in advance.
