Les, You really hit the nail on the head. There are doers and talkers. Thanks again for another great video! Best wishes from all the doers from the great state of Pennsylvania!
I've been following you for 20 years. You've inspired me to get into coyote hunting. I've got your clothes you made and the howa axiom..... Keep up the great info
Excellent video! Thank you Les for confirming what I told s buddy of mine. We were out coyote hunting one evening and he was worried about the call. I told him that coyotes aren't going to reason out if that is a call, a real animal or anything else. The coyote just know it's a distress call (easy meal).
Great talk I started 42 years ago an yellowhammer is what I like the best an you know most coyotes an fox do not know what one is but they come running in. So you are so right about calling an really enjoy your videos. Thank you for keeping hunting so much alive.
M K, thank you. Yes, the yellowhammer has probably been one of the most successful sounds out there. Sometimes, it is just the "high" pitch that excites the predators. Thanks again for watching and commenting on your success as well. LJ
Les, I found a neat little trick on coyotes that are hung up. If the lip squeak doesn't work. Try rubbing two quarters together. I have a couple with holes drilled in them on my lanyard. It works. Watch what your dogs do when you try it..
Great advice Les, I've always said that the best distress call is the one you're using when a coyote is in the area. You can do everything right and if there isn't a yote there to hear the call you have zero chance of calling him in. Covering ground and watching your wind are way more important than if you're using a jack, cotton, or bird call.
Les, I tell people all the time about your channel, and I was brought up the same way as far as go out and hunt, that's how you learn! Thanks for the awesome work you do.
Les, I am hooked on watching your videos. Everything you say is from experience and makes sense....I have learned a lot from watching. It is encouraging to see outdoorsman as yourself that is unafraid to touch on the political state of this country and recognize God as the creator. Tom Staley
Wow !! Awesome video !! I am very proud of you for not being scared to express your political views and for calling out a jackass !! I liked watching your TV show before but with the info in this video you hit a game changer for me. I’m fired up about getting out there hunting and being a doer..It would be nice to be able to meet you one day and even better to have the opportunity to hunt with you as a guest..Until then, happy hunting, and God Bless...
Great video Les, I'm 60 miles east of Red Deer Alberta so I know what you were talking about for terrain and temps. Took my father out Xmas morning. It was -33 degrees Celsius. Had Coyotes answer back all around us that morning. He didn't believe that there could be that many in one small area. Glad for you down south with Mr. Trump, we have an idiot drama teacher here. Keep up the great videos, I'm learning lots!
Hi Garry, thank you for watching and commenting! We actually started our calling East of Red Deer, but it was more like 100 miles if I remember correctly! :) Perhaps it was south too! :) lol! Thanks again and I'm glad you are learning a lot! LJ
Great attitude on life Les. Always enjoyed your shows on TV and these videos as well. Thanks for taking the time for all you do for us sportsmen and women!
We miss you Les. Learn so much from you. I saw your video from 6 months ago, sounded like you were headed back to TH-cam? Hope to hear from you soon. May GOD Bless You in whatever you are up to.
Please don’t reply Les but I’m glad I found your TH-cam page. I’m located in central New York State. We have a helluva lot of coyotes up here but they’re a tough to bring in. I’ve never used a Jack Rabbit distress just for that reason we don’t have such a thing. But now I’m definitely going to start thinking outside of the box.. that was an impressive truck bed full of yotes.. thanx!
Hey Les I absolutely love your videos I’ve been hunting for a long time and I live in Alberta and I’m here to tell ya your open reed jack rabbit calls work unbelievable It’s honestly one of my favourite calls to use. Keep doing your thing my friend
Thank you Les for your channel, finding you and your brother has been a blessing for me, im a Nebraska boy way out here in California! I'm living through you vicariously. I cant wait to go back this Jan, for deer season and in between deer hunting, were gonna try some coyote calling and maybe bag a few of them. Plus Amen to our new Pres.
I've gotta say, I really enjoy watching all your videos and I've thought of how great it would be to have a neighbor like you to chat and hunt with. It's blessing enough to have found your channel. It's also great to know that you and I share the same appreciation of our President and all he's trying to accomplish. Thanks so much for the work you do and sharing your interests.
Thank you for watching Jason! Good possibility that I will not be in Yorkton this year! If I do make it, please say hi to me if you see me! Thanks again! LJ
great video Les really enjoy them your a heck of a guy and top of the line in my book really enjoy our hunts together some folks just don't understand that coyotes cant think like humans you give them distress they will come its their instinct
Wow so encouraging to see your success up here in Alberta! I was living in Red Deer when you were in town, so sorry i missed hearing you speak (I'm a brand new subscriber). Just getting into coyote hunting. Any video of your Red Deer area hunts?? Would be so cool to see a pro hunt in my own 'back yard'. God Bless you Sir! :)
hey les all you can do is your best just thought id let you know iwont watch the other guys you probaly forgot more than the others i have more sucess with what your teachings since watching your videos you know your stuff thanks
I've used jack.. I live in PA.. got more with it then cottontail .. like you said it's something different.. baby Jack works good.. me and my daughter went and I used the canary. she looks at me and says "really mom?".. then a coyote yelped..ha!! mid day at that.. used it every since
Thank you so much Jeff! I really appreciate you watching and commenting! I hope that I am able to pass on some useful tips to help you in the field! Thanks again. LJ
Thanks Les for the advice your a true inspiration and I don't mean just coyote hunting. I thought I was going to see some hunting but instead I got some genuine advice. That toothpick cowboy story got me chuckling cause my first experience of a jackrabbit distress was an actual wounded one in the back of my dad's pickup and it was laying back there wounded in a pile with others and I stepped on it and it started its shrill... fast forward. I've tried a lot of calls out there and your right they really don't sound exactly like an actual jackrabbit or cottontail, just close enough. That guy was arrogant to say the least and acting like an ignorant to disrespect you especially knowing who you were in the first place....maybe he didn't but I doubt it... When I got into coyote hunting I just mimicked the jackrabbit I remember crying in the back of my dad's truck before I put it out of its misery, albeit artificial it works most of the time. I never forgot that sound. Funny thing I even heard of coyotes coming to some ring tones on unexpected incoming cellphone calls while in the moment...lol...coyotes are curious by nature its just that simple...Thanks Les for the advice.
C D, thank you! I love your story and your experience as well! I actually had a person in wyoming telling me that him and his brother were hunting jackrabbits in the early 80's with .22's along a river and they shot a Jack that started wailing. Out of nowhere, a coyote ran in and grabbed the jackrabbit and ran off. This was even after the sound of the .22 going off. Like you, I have heard a few animals bawl and you never forget that sound. Thanks again for watching and commenting! LJ
I believe that your advice about just getting out there enough times to have success is one of most sound advice to give someone who is new to this. Doo it...lol. when I started doing this sometimes right from the side of the road and sometimes right form the truck and believe me I have called in and killed coyotes that way. I don't recommend anyone do that as a regular routine, but sometimes it works so well it will blow your mind. Just depends on how gullible or hungry they are, or how rusty your truck is....haha
followed you for years and You-Tube makes it easier to keep up with you, always enjoy your videos and feel there is always something I can pick-up from them Thanks Steve
Hi Les! I live in southern Manitoba. I'm a newbie to coyote hunting. I have yet to get out and hunt them, but waiting for my knee to heal. In the mean time I'm collecting info and watching your videos. Pretty awesome info. Thanks
John, sorry to hear about your knee! Thank you for watching my videos and trying to learn. Obviously, you can really improve your odds by trying to implement some of my teachings before actually going afield, and I appreciate your willingness to learn. That is a huge step in the right direction. Thanks again for watching/commenting and good luck when you go out! LJ
LOL keep making them videos bud I'll be watching also what kinda sounds do i use for different seasons went out the other night i had em howling to different places at the same time they didn't just didn't commit to come on in
Best channel on youtube Les. I've been able to utilize so much from your videos into my own hunting. Any dips on diaphragm calling? Specifically howling. I haven't quite got down all the vocalizations as good as I'd like yet. Any small tips would be appreciated!
Thanks for posting another great video les. Can't say how much I appreciate you taking the time to interact with your fans the way you do. I learn so much from these videos and then continue to learn more and more every time I get out and call whether I'm successful in my calling or not. love this channel can't wait for some new videos. In the mean time I'm going to get out there keep learning and keep getting some yotes shot.
Thank you Tim! I'm glad that my videos are helping you to learn and understand more tricks and tactics! I hope you keep watching because I am going to do a lot more videos, hopefully giving you a lot of information on how to outsmart ol wiley coyote! Thanks again and have a good day! LJ
Everything Outdoors with Les Johnson yes man I love you videos and can't watch enough of them and I love president Trump go USA go keep up the great work les
Hey Les, I'm a Canadian, Newfoundlander first. Glad for you on the Mr. Trump> Hope he pulls through for you! You should do all right now; come to Canada to do some hunting anytime man, that's the way it should be. Like the pile of yotes in your truck esp the white one!
Thank you hunt4fish! I'm glad you are viewing my channel and hopefully gaining some tips in the process! Ugh there are so many light colored ones in canada! :) Thanks again for watching/commenting! LJ
Really enjoy your channel Im 20 yr old and Im learning the hunting community and I'm finally getting my Hunting license for them cayos in California 👌🏼
Hey Les, so I live just a little northwest of red deer and would like to here the sound you used to call them in. I use howls and nothing seems to bring em in. We have a few old dens on the property, but would like to here the sound that you used. Thanks a bunch and keep up with the good vids man.
I have never hunted coyotes but hunt just about everything else and I am going in about a month in mid Missouri, so what should I be looking for as far as my spot goes, where should I set up, what should I avoid, and what are good conditions in summer or any other time. Thanks so much for anyone who answers me.
Get a spot with a good view and especially a good view downwind and to the sides where the dogs will generally come from to check you out (your sound/calls). Be patient and don't get discouraged if you come up empty-handed. Coyotes are fickle beasts and especially wary. I don't know Missouri but it being the "show me" state, I'm willing to bet folks will help you. Good luck!
as usual good stuff les. go Trump. good to hear that story. I have a competition hunt this weekend 4th and 5th. very encouraging to hear you did that this time of year. that's more than all the coyotes shot by 115 teams last year on this hunt.
Great video! You answered a question I had. I live in Tennessee and was wondering if they would respond to a jack rabbit call. Thanks for clearing that up!
honestly when your calling coyotes and your just making it sound interesting for coyotes to come in to check out whats it is that's stuck or getting attacked.
Thanx man, turtle vid was great. hey maybe some of the "disenfranchised" could watch, get a handle on how to subsist for themselves instead of riding the "gravy train". although there are so many now there may be not much game left.....thanx for imparting knowledge freely and being an all round good guy....God bless
Started watching your videos recently Im very impressed and enjoy learning your knowledge of not only hunting but just to enjoy the small things. Keep it up Les
I loved your chat in this older video. I never knew about the difficulties of moving across to Canada to work. Wonder why they tried to keep you out? So suspect. I love our great MAGA movement.
Great video!! I agree it was very refreshing to listen to President Trump!!!! Have a great time calling with Jeff...I'm planning on going out this weekend too...Been busy the last few weeks and haven't gotten out...Hope the channel grows immensely for you and I wanted to say thank you for the feed back you give. I always read your reply's on ever ones Questions! Its like the bonus section to the video!!!
I use to truck into Edmonton, AB every week. Loved going up there, the people were always so nice then, don't know what they would be like now with the way things are. Sure like how you proved him wrong. Pickup load of coyotes, any problems bringing them across the border?
Thanks Lone Ranger! Same as you on the decoy! A decoy will spook about 1/2 of your coyotes. That is of course my opinion on what I have experienced. Thanks for watching and commenting! LJ
Thanks for your reply. Thinking perhaps getting a decoy red fox but not sure I want to spend the money in case success is limited. Keep your videos coming!! Too bad you have had bad experiences with our Border Patrol....bit of a "game" they play in regards to their questioning sometimes. Had the same experience going to Duluth,Minn. couple years back.
A long long time ago Lone, I would use a tanned red fox hide and drape it over a weed or bush about 10 yards in front of my position. Let me tell you this.....I had big, mature coyotes that had their eyes and ears pinned straight at that hide running full blast at it on numerous occassions. Pretty much shotgunned in self defense. Coyotes "Hate" red foxes.....cats.....etc...! Thanks for watching and commenting! LJ
Lone Ranger they get tough splitting their time between the gang trash coming up 35W&East Duluth real crime issues. they're bored, lonely and think they're doing their job sadly. experience lived there 4yrs college
Sounds good Clark! You may not be able to afford my cup O Joe habit! LOL! I hope Brandl is doing well and tell him thanks for telling you about me! Was it Jeff or John? I may be headed to Lincoln this next week and will let you know. Thanks Clark! LJ
Both of the Brandl boys. I am retired now, but worked close with Jeff for years and wore the same color John does. '-) Let me know when you want that cup, we can gang up on Jeff.
Hey les you should come hunt in Manitoba ! I have some land as close to a 1/4 mile from the border! Im continuously trying to get more permission to hunt on prime coyote land. I'm buying land ownership maps and checking the phone book (the old fashion way)
Great White North Poject hey bud try on x maps...it is amazing and gives you info that even just finished contracts of purchase...very up to date help on land owners and parcels to keep you hunting legal and happy. Good luck on permission...there's no easy way round that...bring a kid or your wife...just a tip when asking permission hahaha
That guy you were talking about Les, obviously doesn't know Alberta. We have tons of jackrabbit in this province. Not sure what he was smoking. Maybe something in that toothpick he was playing with lol. We don't have many cottontails but I use cottontail distress calls a lot and it's proven extremely successful for me. Like you said, those coyotes are curious critters!
Hey Les, I had stand that a pair came in on me and seen me move using the orange P. Q howler. They didn't wind me and they slipped off in woods before I could get a shot. What do you do ? Can I try em again and how long would you wait to go back after em? I was howling so should I use different sound this time? It was at daylight also so would you try it a different time of day ? Thanks Les I know your busy but no one else is taking the time to teach us new predator hunters like you!!!
Love watching your videos I appreciate your knowledge and small yet very helpful tips/trick's. My 13yr old son and I love your knowledge and using a shotgun way more and better results
Hey I have a calling question. I went out at 2am for the first time night hunting and they were not responding to rabbit distress. So I switched to coyotes tipping and howling on my fox pro. And about 3 mins went by and I could hear them carrying on in the woods but they never came out into the field for me to see them. In a situation like that what do I do? Wait? Try rabbit? Or keep trying coyotes
Good stuff as always I called in my first coyote on accident as a kid going hunting with my I could sound like a hurt puppy I would do that to stir up rabbits but a coyote came and I got it close with my 1st H&R .410 but I really didn't pursue coyote hunting now it is my favorite type of hunting to do. before I used any type of hand calls I just made one from a straw and has been just as good as a primos or any other type thx I live on a reservation and could go hunting every day if I wanted to but I know how you feel sometimes you just get your fill.
Les, after watching this video and hearing your comments about coming back north of the 49th Parallel, I'll "Hunter-Host" you if you ever want to come to Southern Alberta (Calgary) and shoot coyotes (and not get heckled with stupid comments). I have permission on 4.5 sections or almost 2900 acres. I also know of a couple large areas of public land... My best last year was a 55-60 lb yote, 5ft long after drying on the stretching board !
Thank you R1jOhn! I appreciate the offer! At this point in my life, I am unsure of when I will have time to get back up there on a hunt. Obviously, it is a time/money thing for me as my time is so valuable due to all of the different areas of my business that require it. Thank you for watching/commenting! LJ

You really hit the nail on the head. There are doers and talkers. Thanks again for another great video!
Best wishes from all the doers from the great state of Pennsylvania!

Les, I found a neat little trick on coyotes that are hung up. If the lip squeak doesn't work. Try rubbing two quarters together. I have a couple with holes drilled in them on my lanyard. It works. Watch what your dogs do when you try it..
I just started coyote hunting and I live in Kansas. I watch a lot of your videos to help me with learning how to call. Thank you
I'll watch every video you post Les ! Thanks for taking the time to share.
Thank you Huff! I appreciate you watching and commenting! LJ
awesome thanks les and we do have a president for America and the people finally
Thank you for watching Jerad....and YES we do! :) LJ
Love listening to you talk. Thanks for all the good information

Les, hands down the best channel on TH-cam! Heading out to call yotes this weekend in Saskatchewan.
Thank you Ryan, you just put a big smile on my face! I will be at the Regina Sports Show in a few weeks! Hope to see you there! LJ
Les, I tell people all the time about your channel, and I was brought up the same way as far as go out and hunt, that's how you learn! Thanks for the awesome work you do.

Hey Les, I'm a Canadian, Newfoundlander first. Glad for you on the Mr. Trump> Hope he pulls through for you! You should do all right now; come to Canada to do some hunting anytime man, that's the way it should be. Like the pile of yotes in your truck esp the white one!
Thank you hunt4fish! I'm glad you are viewing my channel and hopefully gaining some tips in the process! Ugh there are so many light colored ones in canada! :) Thanks again for watching/commenting! LJ
I just wish people would love the world as much as they do who they think made it...
Really enjoy your channel Im 20 yr old and Im learning the hunting community and I'm finally getting my Hunting license for them cayos in California 👌🏼
Les I just found you and I can’t wait for more 👍
Hey Les, so I live just a little northwest of red deer and would like to here the sound you used to call them in. I use howls and nothing seems to bring em in. We have a few old dens on the property, but would like to here the sound that you used. Thanks a bunch and keep up with the good vids man.
Good video and good advice. Cheers.
I love what your saying. keep up the good work
I have never hunted coyotes but hunt just about everything else and I am going in about a month in mid Missouri, so what should I be looking for as far as my spot goes, where should I set up, what should I avoid, and what are good conditions in summer or any other time. Thanks so much for anyone who answers me.
Get a spot with a good view and especially a good view downwind and to the sides where the dogs will generally come from to check you out (your sound/calls). Be patient and don't get discouraged if you come up empty-handed. Coyotes are fickle beasts and especially wary. I don't know Missouri but it being the "show me" state, I'm willing to bet folks will help you. Good luck!
Thanks that helps a lot
Thanks that helps a lot
Thanks that helps a lot
Where are you at in Missouri? I’m in the KCMO area.
Now we got the devil in office. Back to square one for the business owners
as usual good stuff les. go Trump. good to hear that story. I have a competition hunt this weekend 4th and 5th. very encouraging to hear you did that this time of year. that's more than all the coyotes shot by 115 teams last year on this hunt.
Great video! You answered a question I had. I live in Tennessee and was wondering if they would respond to a jack rabbit call. Thanks for clearing that up!
Actions speak louder than words!
honestly when your calling coyotes and your just making it sound interesting for coyotes to come in to check out whats it is that's stuck or getting attacked.
Somone please answer this. Do you hunt at night or day?
Love your advice and content!
Focus that camera...wow.
Great video Les, I love the positive encouragement and patriotism.God bless you sir!
Thank you Hisslave! Thanks for watching and commenting! LJ
Thanx man, turtle vid was great. hey maybe some of the "disenfranchised" could watch, get a handle on how to subsist for themselves instead of riding the "gravy train". although there are so many now there may be not much game left.....thanx for imparting knowledge freely and being an all round good guy....God bless
dig the wild too...guns, knives....etc
Just bought your e call at bass pro .going to use it today hope me the best
Thank you Les for supporting our President!
Started watching your videos recently Im very impressed and enjoy learning your knowledge of not only hunting but just to enjoy the small things. Keep it up Les
Thanks Logan! I hope you continue to watch! LJ
Another great video Les!!! Wish I could hit the like button 100 times.
Thank you Crushed! I really appreciate it! Glad you liked it and I hope you continue to watch! Have a good day! LJ
I loved your chat in this older video. I never knew about the difficulties of moving across to Canada to work. Wonder why they tried to keep you out? So suspect. I love our great MAGA movement.
That’s awesome!!!
Great video!! I agree it was very refreshing to listen to President Trump!!!! Have a great time calling with Jeff...I'm planning on going out this weekend too...Been busy the last few weeks and haven't gotten out...Hope the channel grows immensely for you and I wanted to say thank you for the feed back you give. I always read your reply's on ever ones Questions! Its like the bonus section to the video!!!
I use to truck into Edmonton, AB every week. Loved going up there, the people were always so nice then, don't know what they would be like now with the way things are. Sure like how you proved him wrong. Pickup load of coyotes, any problems bringing them across the border?
Very very very well said.
les of the 51 or 52 coyotes you shot how many do you think you shot with your rifle
john, it wouldve been about 35-40 of them. Thank you for watching/commenting! LJ
Great video Les as usual. Question, what is your take on using decoys? I have had limited success.
Thanks Lone Ranger! Same as you on the decoy! A decoy will spook about 1/2 of your coyotes. That is of course my opinion on what I have experienced. Thanks for watching and commenting! LJ
Thanks for your reply. Thinking perhaps getting a decoy red fox but not sure I want to spend the money in case success is limited. Keep your videos coming!! Too bad you have had bad experiences with our Border Patrol....bit of a "game" they play in regards to their questioning sometimes. Had the same experience going to Duluth,Minn. couple years back.
A long long time ago Lone, I would use a tanned red fox hide and drape it over a weed or bush about 10 yards in front of my position. Let me tell you this.....I had big, mature coyotes that had their eyes and ears pinned straight at that hide running full blast at it on numerous occassions. Pretty much shotgunned in self defense. Coyotes "Hate" red foxes.....cats.....etc...! Thanks for watching and commenting! LJ
Lone Ranger they get tough splitting their time between the gang trash coming up 35W&East Duluth real crime issues. they're bored, lonely and think they're doing their job sadly. experience lived there 4yrs college
Give me a holler the next time you are in Lincoln. I'll buy you a cup O Joe, or some other refreshment.
Sounds good Clark! You may not be able to afford my cup O Joe habit! LOL! I hope Brandl is doing well and tell him thanks for telling you about me! Was it Jeff or John? I may be headed to Lincoln this next week and will let you know. Thanks Clark! LJ
Both of the Brandl boys. I am retired now, but worked close with Jeff for years and wore the same color John does. '-) Let me know when you want that cup, we can gang up on Jeff.
Great video les
Thank you Airguns for watching and commenting! Have a good day! LJ
I want to try Coyote hunting. What calls should I get for a first time hunter?
are you using diaphragm calls or are you using electronic calls?
I howl with diaphragm and open reed calls, use electronic calls and open reed for distress. Thanks for watching and commenting Jay! LJ
Thank you for the info and Shout out from Las Vegas Hunting Community
Hey les you should come hunt in Manitoba ! I have some land as close to a 1/4 mile from the border! Im continuously trying to get more permission to hunt on prime coyote land. I'm buying land ownership maps and checking the phone book (the old fashion way)
Great White North Poject hey bud try on x maps...it is amazing and gives you info that even just finished contracts of purchase...very up to date help on land owners and parcels to keep you hunting legal and happy. Good luck on permission...there's no easy way round that...bring a kid or your wife...just a tip when asking permission hahaha
Nicole Nielson thanks I'll try that out and see how it works! Appreciate the help!
I love your shows you are like my hero you are a great shot
Love your videos you should come up to Michigan to hunt coyotes.
Fantastic you are right on target
What on earth do you do with all the carcasses?
That guy you were talking about Les, obviously doesn't know Alberta. We have tons of jackrabbit in this province. Not sure what he was smoking. Maybe something in that toothpick he was playing with lol. We don't have many cottontails but I use cottontail distress calls a lot and it's proven extremely successful for me. Like you said, those coyotes are curious critters!
Have you gone on a wolf hunt?
A couple "hunts" and then a couple bait pile sets. No sighting yet! :) LJ
Hey Les, I had stand that a pair came in on me and seen me move using the orange P. Q howler. They didn't wind me and they slipped off in woods before I could get a shot. What do you do ? Can I try em again and how long would you wait to go back after em? I was howling so should I use different sound this time? It was at daylight also so would you try it a different time of day ? Thanks Les I know your busy but no one else is taking the time to teach us new predator hunters like you!!!
Love watching your videos I appreciate your knowledge and small yet very helpful tips/trick's.
My 13yr old son and I love your knowledge and using a shotgun way more and better results
Well that big cowboy feller don’t know what he’s taking about because we have Jackrabbits around Red Deer.
Ha ha.
Really enjoy your vids, keep 'em coming.
This guy should be on a his own talk show.we a here to watch you hunt coyotes
Hey I have a calling question. I went out at 2am for the first time night hunting and they were not responding to rabbit distress. So I switched to coyotes tipping and howling on my fox pro. And about 3 mins went by and I could hear them carrying on in the woods but they never came out into the field for me to see them. In a situation like that what do I do? Wait? Try rabbit? Or keep trying coyotes
great video.
Thank you Hiscoolness! I appreciate you watching and commenting! LJ
Good stuff as always I called in my first coyote on accident as a kid going hunting with my I could sound like a hurt puppy I would do that to stir up rabbits but a coyote came and I got it close with my 1st H&R .410 but I really
didn't pursue coyote hunting now it is my favorite type of hunting to do. before I used any type of hand calls I just made one from a straw and has been just as good as a primos or any other type thx I live on a reservation and could go hunting every day if I wanted to but I know how you feel sometimes you just get your fill.
Thank you bNICE for your story and watching! Have a good day! LJ
How do you make a straw call?
I know this is a few years old but ,Since when do we not have jack rabbits in alberta ? I've shot many around Taber.
Les, after watching this video and hearing your comments about coming back north of the 49th Parallel, I'll "Hunter-Host" you if you ever want to come to Southern Alberta (Calgary) and shoot coyotes (and not get heckled with stupid comments). I have permission on 4.5 sections or almost 2900 acres. I also know of a couple large areas of public land...
My best last year was a 55-60 lb yote, 5ft long after drying on the stretching board !
Thank you R1jOhn! I appreciate the offer! At this point in my life, I am unsure of when I will have time to get back up there on a hunt. Obviously, it is a time/money thing for me as my time is so valuable due to all of the different areas of my business that require it. Thank you for watching/commenting! LJ
Thanks for that talk. I appreciate you heart. We have a common friend. Brian the carpenter. I won't use his last name. Great guy.
Do you play the Star spangled banner ?
