I went coyote hunting with my coworker and some of his friends. It's a lot more fun running them with dogs than calling them.
After driving around calling we located a pack in a holler. We dumped 2 dogs and waited. After they had the coyote running. We turned 4 more hounds loose.
Shot 15 minutes later we saw the coyote run across the field we were sitting on. About half an hour later the dogs caught it under a neighbor's porch.
I crawled under the porch to retrieve it with a hog catcher and realized it has made a den under the porch.
Over all it was a great first hunt. VID_20221008_073912760_exported_12663.jpg
 
They use dogs around me . I heard a good chase on my property a few months ago , so I drove around to see what they were doing . They were on a bobcat . The dogs caught it and killed it . I don’t know why it didn’t tree . I was glad that they killed it , I am a rabbit hunter .
 
My brother lives about thirty miles from the Pennsylvania border and there was a group of guys from Pennsylvania that wound hunt coyotes his area with hound dogs. They would have tracking collars on them and could tell where to send people to be set up for the kill. They did quite well on killing them. They generally have escape routes that they use over & over again year after year.
My brother and one of his friends use to hunt with them.
I like seeing these coyotes taken out of the equation. A breeding pair of coyotes will kill a deer fawn a day while rearing a litter of pups.
 
I never done heard of running them with dogs. !! That's interesting. What kind of dog would be the norm? Same hounds as for bear and cougar? I used to call them in, and shoot them anytime I saw one, and killed so many that I finally declared peace on them. But it's true, like wolves they are very hard on the fawns, and I'm glad others hunt them.

A lot of running walkers with other random breeds mixed in. The breeding is purely for traits. So someone may throw a greyhound in if their too slow.
They're a wiry ugly lot of dogs. But the sound good.
Half of them double as deer dogs unless you can shock it out of them.
