I am going to share a coyote hunting tactic that a friend of my use in Manitoba which may or may not be legal in some areas. In our area the survey system has everything in square miles with some kind of access on four sides of every mile. The coyotes soon get a little bit wise to vehicles but can't resist giving the 200 yard stare for about 15 sec. and then taking off. So instead of a snap shot at a running coyote going over a hill 250 yds. away here is what we do. When a coyote is spotted, slow the truck down, don't quite stop, partner jumps out, clips up, uses whatever cover is available and gets set. In order to give him time, just proceed ahead with truck slowly and stop about 200 yds further down the trail. Coyote will be watching you , not him. Use whatever flat shooting calibre you want depending on whether you want the fur or not. I use 243 my friend uses 22 250 or 223. I haven't had this work since yesterday.

The method most of us here in AZ that hunt coyotes is calling. Some guys are using electronic calls which they set up at the bottom of a small hill and hunker down near the top where they have a good field of view but don't skyline.My favorite tactic is to use the older blow type calls and set up on the repair platform of a water windmill. Cammo good and be still. A dead jackrabbit at the base helps.I have never had one of those song dogs look up and have been doing this since I was a kid What a ball.

They run them with dogs in N.E. MO. Trailing hounds will flush them and Greyhounds do the rest. The boys say if a Greyhound sees a coyote, the coyote is a dead dog running.

We have good luck with setting up where the coyote has come from and then circling in front of the coyote to turn him around.
When he goes back there is a little piece of lead waiting for him.
Helps to have the wind in the right direction.
We've taken 29 coyotes within 2.5 miles of my house over the past two winters.
Most were taken with this method.

We have good luck with this method too. Where in Iowa are you? I live in Elkhart, but do most of my hunting back home around Carroll County.

how in the hell do you turn them around? we are lucky just to see one when we call and then we are even luckier to get a shot off and then we are real lucky if we hit one.

Were in fairly open country so with two or three pickups we can keep track of them with radios. We just keep blocking the way they want to go and after a couple of deversions they go back the way they came in. If they don't see you set up they will generally go back when they see us in front of them. We try not to get to close or move to fast as to not get them running. Makes it easier for the guy shooting. Sometimes they will stop when you get in front so drivers get a few at 200 to 400 yards.
Works for us.
