I drove to the lease this weekend to try and thin out some coyotes. I woke up this morning to a 22 mph north wind. Has anyone had any luck calling when the wind is blasting? I don’t know if this front will have them hunkered down or up on their feet. I have the speaker facing with the wind so the sound will carry. Any advice or input?

I hate the wind. They will be hunkered down. Call the thick stuff and make your stands closer together. Your sound won't be traveling as far. Call the lowest ground you can find.
22mph ain't too bad. That's our normal breeze. If a guy waited until it wasn't windy to go callin up here he'd never go.Last edited by okrattler; 01-15-2022, 08:00 AM.

Another thing you can do is set that call up off the ground. The sound will travel further. I have a strap attached to the handle of my FoxPro so I can hang it on limbs,fences,etc when it's a little windier than I'd like. Sitting flat on the ground that sound has a little more trouble getting out there. I always set mine up on a yucca plant or in sage brush or whatever may be out there.Last edited by okrattler; 01-15-2022, 09:15 AM.

Up here in Wyoming, if you waited for no wind you would never get out calling.
Be sure to be down wind of where you are calling to. It sounds from your post like you are upwind and they will pick up your scent quickly.
22 mph winds are nothing, just a strong breeze up here.
They will be moving so get out there and keep the wind in your favor.
Good luck!
