Coyote Hunting In Western Washington

[arthury]

My understanding is that there are quite a few coyotes even in the Issaquah (Tiger Mts) area. My friend's chicken coups are raided often by them. The only hairy thing is the population density of the area. Might need to shoot towards the mountains instead of away.

 :)Go to LT Murrey or Ellensburg, the Yakima training center, loads of coyotes there, easy to call.

Make sure you see the tracks!

Biggest killer of chickens is usually raccoon's!

the 'coons take a lot of chickens for sure....but I had one coyote that knew we left the house to take the boys to school...neighbor say it making the loop and told me when it was happening...

A coyote with a habit is a dead coyote...

Anyone ever go after yotes with a Bow?  I saw it on Arrow Affliction once, and they didn't have any luck.  I guess they are too keen to come withing 40 or 50 yds.  That could be fun to give it a try...

They pick up movement real quick! I want one with my bow so i can say i have the coyote trifecta! Rifle Shotgun Bow... I think you got to call them from a tree stand on the westside. 

[CoachNemo]

I was always thinking ground blind, never thought about a tree stand... hmmm, this might be worth a try...

Decoy - use a rabbit decoy, it may help get them in closer. It does for me, I've got them inside 10yds more than once. Next I want to use a pistol for my 'trifecta' (rifle, shotgun, pistol) since I dont shoot a bow.

i have killed a couple with my bow but did not call them in ...just happened to be in the right spot at the right time .......

 :)nuthin to it, get yerself a rabbit decoy, walk out in the woods and blow yer XX brand call, make sure you got yer AR and the coyotes will run in and die. make sure you go "too-wahh" then go ask a few internet heros.
