We do sell coyote hunting packages if you want but the main point of this post is to get some coyote hunters coming out. We are in the very Northwest corner of South Dakota and would love to have some hunters come out and shoot some coyotes.. We are losing livestock and money. I can get you access to thousands of acres of several ranches combined in the same situation.

What town 1s close to hunting area? What lodging is available?

Buffalo South Dakota and yes there is a hotel in town

So is this posting a sales pitch for your coyote hunting packages or an offer to gain permission for any hunter that is willing to come to the area to kill coyotes?

Guess the drop in pelt prices may have stopped a lot of local fur hunters/trappers.

It's just a offer to help get people permission to hunt coyotes and help out some ranchers.

If I lived within a day's drive of you, I'd happily join in. Wish someone around my area would do the same.

Here in New England the coyote has eliminated the woodchuck from the farms.

Woodchuck hunting was a favorite of mine. I have shot only two coyotes in the last few years.

Round bout calving/lambing time next spring would really pick up the demand for hunters I would imagine.

What months would that be up there?

February March and April for most people. They are really pounding the sheep ranchers

Randy - I sent you a PM

????? why wasn't this post done in the varmint hunting section. Also what is the charge for this service?

Al

I replied, and I guess it is my fault it is in the wrong section.

Having an EX whose family raised sheep I can say yotes are a real problem. Back when yotes were really getting bad here a neighbor bought sheep and put them in a pasture. I figured that would be a short lived venture. After several weeks with no apparent loses I was puzzled until one day when I passed I noted that two of the sheep were Great Pyrenees.


Don't think there is a "fault" or wrong section, why not post there too or just ask the moderator to move it.

Miles and miles of BLM in Idaho, best coyote hunting is in the Owayhee behind Twin Falls in the arid desert..If you can call real well, Id say 10 to 25 coyotes per day in most areas..Just driving around spot and stalk or spot and shoot, Id guess 4 to 5 a day..if you can shoot. No guide or permission needed, its gov. land. and lots of it. That area may be as large as some states and it covers parts of Idaho, Nevada, and Oregon...

I don't hunt coyotes unless someone pays ME! I let them live till a tournament and then clean house. My son and I can pick up $1500 top $2500 as a team for a day of hunting song dogs. Have won or placed for the last five or six years during winter day shoots. That's all I'll say about paying to hunt coyotes!

Hmmm....how far up the coast are you, and are there hogs?
