what do you suppose the results would be if someone attempted to ALWAYS FACE AND CALL DOWNWIND for a winter season?
the "literature" has always told us to call into the wind or cross-wind. but we all seem to agree that coyotes often (not always) try to get downwind of the sound source.
does anyone out there intentionally try to find setups where they are facing mainly downwind?
also, if the wind is 10 to 15 or more mph, has anyone (with the help of a buddy) tried to determine how far upwind a call can be heard versus how far downwind? i realize that a coyote can hear a lot better than people, but i sure wonder how quickly wind will dampen a sound upwind and how readily a wind will carry sound waves downwind.
