Has anybody been using these sounds with any luck? I was told that they will help bring in educated and call shy coyotes. Any input will be appreciated.

Yes, absolutely, I use them a lot.
With my MA21 I like to start with 5 minutes of distress calls (fawn distress is my favorite), then run 2 cycles of Adult Coyotes Fighting over Food, then either Pup distress or Adult Coyote distress.
It's not 100% or even 50%, but it's a pretty good combo around here.
The woods behind my house are pretty thick and used to hold a Bobcat ocassionally. So Tuesday I went to try to call a cat, less than 200 yards from the house.
My plan was as follows; 5 minutes of Bobcat/Grey Fox Fight; 1 minute of silence; Then 30 or 40 minutes of Grey Fox Pup Distress, to give a cat time to expose itself.
Now let me be perfectly clear, I am no cat calling machine. I started really targeting cats last year and called and killed 1, but the sequence I planned was what worked last year.
Back tothe hunt;;; I played the 5 minutes of Bobcat/Grey Fox Fight, and muted the call for the planned 1 minute of silence; Before the 1 minute of silence was up,
a coyote pops out in an old logging road about 60 yards away, Bang spin, bang flop and she's down. (I know, to many bangs) I immediately go to Coyote Pup Distress and 4 minutes later coyote #2 comes out on the same logging road, no more than 5 feet behind the first coyote. OK, so I missed the second coyote, but evidently they didn't like a bobcat and grey fox fighting in their territory.
Anytime animals fight, there is a chance to kill something, either food or competition.
The wife and I called a coyote once while crow hunting.
I started the caller on Crow and Owl Fight, and the coyote came hauling butt in less than 1 minute later.
Try some fighting sounds and see what happens.
And Good Luck to you.

I have been trying fight sounds this year with some luck. I like the TT sounds and also some of the FoxPro pup distress sounds. Seem to work when rabbit distress sounds aren't. Good Luck

For a change of pace you might try cc90 burnham brothers coyote pups fighting its a pretty nice sound.

I used the TT Coyote Fight sound mixed in with TT Male Challenge and feeding coyotes on a coyote that was held up out of sight challenge barking at us for about 45 minutes. He ended up getting closer and closer until he finally showed himself at about 600 or 700 yards. I could not get this coyote to come another inch for the life of me. I tried to mix in some female howls and female whimpers at the end with no luck.

I have used "Male Coyote Challenge 4", "Coyote Pup Distress 3" and "Coyote Growls" and had coyotes come in many times.
The last two seasons during January, February and March these 3 sounds have called in lots of coyotes for us and most of the time it is 2 or more coyotes that come in.
I don't use any of these sounds at the start of my stands, I almost always start with rabbit, bird or rodent distress sounds.
I will start out with the coyote sounds if I have already heard some coyotes as I am walking into my stand or if I have already heard the coyotes off in the distance and I have moved in closer to their location.
All of these coyote sounds I play on full blast volume 40.
If I hear a coyote challenge me after I have started the stand I go to Male Coyote Challenge 4. If this coyote or coyotes gets louder and madder sounding after a few minutes of challenging them I will switch to Coyote Pup Distress 3.
If they don't come in to Pup Distress 3, I will go back to Male Challenge 4 for 30 seconds to a minute and then switch to Coyote Growls.
On a few occasions we have seen a coyote or coyotes way off in the distance and they acted like they had played this game before and would not come in to any sounds.
But when I switched to Pup Distress 3 or Coyote Growls they would turn and run straight for my Foxpro.

I 've tried some of TT's fighting sounds in heavy pressured areas, but with no luck yet..
I believe I need to keep trying!

I use the TT sound.
I mix it up though & may run rabbit distress, then puppy barking into adult barking into the TT fight then into challanges. Shot a few this way, but not alway 100%.
I may run my antelope fawn & coyote barking mix, then feeding into the fight & back to antelope whines.
