I've not killed many coyotes, but most of the ones I have were either coming to my calls or dekes, or on their way to a gobbling turkey, same as me.

Saw one this year going to a gobbling bird, and I should have shot him, but had not killed a turkey yet at that point and so took the chance and simply ran the 'yote off. Did not kill the turkey either. Within a week, the bird disappeared. Whether a hunter got him or the coyote I don't know.

Darn coyotes are a heck of a predator, hard on turkeys and fawns.

Shoot every one you can.
