After reading the link it would seem to me that it is not much of a secret.    :wo:

There are contests all around, up and down Kali. Im not a fan of hunting contests in actuality, but what the hell does it matter if a bunch of guys get together in one spot, and kill a few coyotes out of the area, as opposed to all of them hunting on their own, on their  home turf.? I know there is incentive (money and prizes) and guys hit it extra hard, but I just dont believe that that many more will be killed as opposed to an average day of calling by a serious caller.

I said years ago that, next to the internet, that hunting contests were the worst thing to happen to hunting, image wise. Everyone had the big idea that it was going to become like Bassmasters or something.

Never gonna fly....anywhere.

Nope. I agree. Buts it's amusing to watch.

I agree. I think it would be extremely hard to convince farmers and landowners that they need more coyotes.    :nono:

Many times sign-in and check-out locations are kept secret due to the tree huggers demonstrations.
