Yup, a lot of effort but worth it when you get to watch one run in from a long distance.

Sounds like a fun day. I've just started getting more serious about calling Coyotes this winter. Overall its gone fairly well I guess some highs and some lows shot my first double on Friday evening at my last stand. Couple weeks ago had one that almost end up in my lap shot it at 20m (started carrying a shotgun as well after that) I have to admit though I get frustrated at times to go from a evening hunt doing three quick stands and calling in 3 coyotes on two of the stands to full days doing 8 stands and nothing. Makes me question what I am doing any tips for online resources for calling tips and sequences and when to use what call. Feel like I am relying heavily on luck at this point would like to have a bit better strategy.
