Ok...... • All coyotes presented for final check in must be called in and/orharvested by legal means. Coyotes turned in that are determined to be harvested in any way other than legal means will be disqualified and the team will be disqualified. No road kill or trapped animals allowed." I hope this clears it up.
Carpsniperg, i dont know how you got that i think i am better than everyone else just cause i was a litttle iffy on whether everyone would be on the up and up. I apologize if it came off that way but I read the rules that they all had to be called. That is totally fine that it is a body count and i even said in one of my post that i am all for road hunting and taking coyotes in any legal way if it is not causing danger to person or property. You might want to go back and read it. Im out for the tourney but hope you guys have a blast and cant wait to hear the results. take care
Yes randy will clear this up but I AM postive that not only called coyotes will count. That is what the discussion is about.No one said it was o.k to have a loaded gun or shoot from the rig. If people are driving private roads and shooting coyotes so be it. AS long as they are not shooting from a rig or having a loaded gun in the rig. Road hunting is not illegal. Shooting from a rig is and having a loaded firearm in the rig is. You can get out of a rig and shoot a coyote after you see one driving around. There is no law that says you cant road hunt
anyone else counting days, getting gear ready, lookin at maps, talking game plans?

All methods of harvesting the coyote have to conform with the rules set by the WDFW. In the rules it references calling and legal means of harvesting. If you have a disabled hunter permit and have the paper work to prove it, it is than legal to abide by those guidelines,if you want to spotlight, so be it, if you want to call, so be it, as long as it is any LEGAL means.This has (thanks to all the attention and bending) made for a rule clarification for future Classics should there be any. It takes things like this to point out the weak points of things so they can be fixed. Thanks for that part.We intended to have a coyote hunting contest, share the outdoors with other sportsmen and women, enjoy a sport we all share interest in and have a good time. Please let us have that . . .Sorry if we confused anybody . . . R
