I would say go to the flea market and pic up a few roasters and hens. Take one and tie it to a tree where you can get a good shot at it. get back and wait for the coyotes to come. you could put some calls in there with it. as far as deer carcasses go I dunno. Im hoping to get me a coyote too and I am going to use a roaster to bait them.

Yes, coyotes do come to deer carcasses. Every year we throw out our carcasses at a gravel pit and the night after they always come in. It might not work that great for hunting unless you know a well traveled area that the coyotes will come in instantly. I would take Cabohusky's advice and get some chickens and call. Good Luck!

If you are using a deer carcass,be sure to anchor the deer with a chain,especially with the use of a trai-cam.

If your area is dense with coyote's, they could be there at night fall,the day you drop it off.

I would suggest a coyote call rather than bait because it gets a more immediate response. Coyotes do come to chickens and deer carcasses but you never know whether it will be today or next week. It is also most likely to be between 2:00AM and 4:00AM when they come. They also seem to be very wary around deer carcasses for some reason... it may be the excessive human scent. I used a live chicken only once and a great horned owl nailed it before I ever saw a coyote.

If your goal is to increase your deer population, you would do much better spending your time and money improving your deer habitat. One peer reviewed study found it would take 75 years of shooting 85% of a coyote population to achieve sufficient control of a coyote population. Coyote are vary adaptable to population losses this is called compensatory mortality. By killing coyotes on your property you are actually increasing your coyote population (more prey for less coyotes, more likely survival of new pups). Wildlife populations are subject to carrying capacity meaning population numbers are self regulating if there is not enough prey predators will die, if there is too much prey predators will increase.

Thats the best way in my opinion they get on that like flies on $#it

My father shot 3 coyote in 6 night sitting over the same dead deer. I have one of the old pictures. I have hunted over bait many times and have gotten a few animals but not enough to consider it a good method. I've had better luck calling but that is not a slam dunk either. Coyote are difficult to fool and you had better be alert and pay attention to the wind or you will have zero success.

are you kidding me, coyotes love deer, and any thing eles tastey

Gut piles are a great way of attracting coyotes. As for increasing the size of your deer heard I dont think it will help much cause there are too many other thing that can cause death or other lower numbers in the herd, such as weather, sickness, etc.

Yeah just a bout anything dead will work, even another coyote. Ive had quite a problem with coyotes lately so I got some calls. I havent used them much but htey havent done anything so far. Good Luck!
