some guys get a lucky kill right off the bat to keep them in the game . but for the most part there's a serious learning curve.It took me six year of relatively hard hunting to evan get a shot off.sounds crazy but makes perfect sense knowing what I know now. to new hunters my advice is to keep mixing things up untill you get success.and than analyze the [beeep] out of what happened than try your best to duplicate that set up on similar terrain .It worked for a reason.with enough time in you'll build a portfollio of set-ups for different situations .also throw out all books that have a coyote with its mouth open running across an open field..Not Joking
