I only speak from my experience in the County I live in...


The vast majority of Coyote hunters use scent not sight hounds.Most hunters have 4x4 pick ups and drive where ever they please during a hunt.Its not unusual to see 8-10 vehicles parked around a square mile area to box in a coyote so some one will get a shot. All pick ups have radios for communications, the vast majority use rifles. If the hunter ever gets out of their vehicle its to take a shot, or take a piss from all the coffe drinking.......Some like to call it a sport, I do not.


Its really no different than deer hunting in this county...First you put out the trail camera,doe scent, or the salt block or deer "snacks", or maybe a big ole deer feeder that attracts many deer...Get in your camo blind or clothes and become a "hunter", and be sure to have the head mounted so all will know what a hunter you are.....some call it a sport,I do not.


I was raised hunting and with a rifle in my hand, down through the years many things have changed. Hunting has become a money game to so many, as it has to the state of Illinois.The only hunting I do any more is Coyote, just me, my call and rifle. No vehicle, dogs, bait,or any other fancy commercial gimmick..Do I rack up dozens of kills a year..no.. but the solitude and enjoyment of the great outdoors is my reward, I do not hunt just to see how many I can "Kill".
