Welcome to FnF cb!! Good to have you here.

I usually tell people it's a lot like turkey hunting except you have to watch the wind. Get hidden. Stay still. Be ready every second you are on stand. Look with your eyes & turn your head as little as possible. Scout your area. Hunt the woods.

Any questions just ask away. This place has a bunch of eastern hunters that can help. But I'm not one of them.

thank you eveyone for the welcome. I live here in Pike Co Ohio. I have done some hunting around pasture fields where cows are kepted, only luck i has was taken a few greyfox thru the night, i use a lightforce light with a adjustment hookup so when i go night hunting. Im only a few sounds away of have all of foxpro's, plus i had them to mix me up 25 different sounds that i may need. Just trying to get this day hunting down. getting ready to head back out soon going down to manchester ohio and try my luck there. I have hunted the fields with no luck, i go into the woods and only call deer to the call lol, they really like the woodpecker in distress sounds lol. thank again everyone

Coyotes like deer too.

Don't let that discourage you. They can alert you to the presence of a coyote you may not see.

Welcome cbbase,
Your only 25 min. drive north of me,I have heard that your area is pretty good in holding some yotes around the river and wooded lots. low volume Distress sounds work pretty well in are areas as that is what I have had luck with anyways.
