Called alittle more and I coulsnt cox him back out how long should I wait till I go try again? And should I set up on a dif fence and use dif calls the next time?

    From what I’ve read and been told, that dog may not come back at all this year. Of course, there are exceptions to every rule. I educated one over Xmas and still haven’t called one back into that spot even though it’s full of fresh tracks each time I’m there. I’m a firm believer of switching it up no matter if it’s deer or coyotes. Can’t hurt to try anyway.

    Use a different call and sequence. educated dogs are tough!

    All you can do is keep trying.

    Since you didn’t shoot at them, you might get another chance. Especially if you’re in an area where coyotes have regular chance encounters with people.

    On a cattle ranch where I hunt, there are 2 coyotes in particular that seem to consider themselves part of the family. They show up ever other day or so and, of course, the ranchers never have a gun on them when they need it, so the coyotes have learned that contact with people is just part of the daily routine and they appear to have the opinion that it’s no big deal. Needless to say, I’m hoping to catch up with this pair any day now. .

    But my point is that I would give this pair a rest and then go after them again with a different setup and sequence. You may get lucky and find that they didn’t put two and two together and figure out what you were up to.
