Can't say I've mastered any techniques in the east. But our coyotes tend to get a lot bigger due to better conditions for food & water. and maybe they tend to get older since they may not be hunted as much in a lot of places.
The places I've hunted out west has had vast tracts of public land but not all the west has that. In the southeast, for me it's mostly small bits of private land or sometimes a bigger chunk of public land but that stuff gets hunted a lot. Even if coyotes aren't the common target they run into a lot of hunters.
