Night hunting Suggestions please
I’m fairly new to the night hunting game. Killed many coyotes during day but am having problems switching from scan to gun light without them noticing me. Tonight I went to 2 stands with nothing. Third stand saw coyote come out from my left but he was already close (70 yards or so) Saw me when I hit him with light and bolted. About 10 minutes in I see another set of eyes out in front of me maybe 200 yards. Never got an I.d on it but was definitely a predator. Either coyote or fox. Can’t hunt fox on Sunday though in Pennsylvania only coyote. Anyhow, when I switch to gun light it seemed like he just stopped. I never burned him just halo him entire time. After 45 minutes he just paced back and forth and would never get closer than 200 yards. Eventually just walked off
