To be successful at coyote hunting you will need to stay a step ahead. Coyote are very clever and fast creatures. You'll have to be smarter and quicker or they will hear and smell you approaching every time.

Their very strong sense of smell will alert them to your presence before you even realize it. Camouflage yourself properly. Stay close to the trees and foliage. Make yourself unseen and hidden out of view. Move as little as possible. Movement will bring attention to your hiding spot. The coyote will detect you and be gone before you even realize it are there.

Use callers correctly to the animal. If you call too loudly it will be obvious to the prey that you are a threat. Keep it to a medium level and do not call excessively. Give the coyote time to respond and acknowledge that you are there.

It may take some time but when you do get a response then you know the coyotes are nearby. You can learn to call by using your mouth but most prefer to use a calling device to get that perfect sound.

You might try using life-sized decoys. Decoys take the attention away from the hunter.
