Are you knife hunting cows? If so it's working very well but a bucket with grain will probably help speed things up.
Are you coyote hunting today?

It helps a lot when u belly crawl up to some deer.. I've learned to shoot my recurve from this position and have crawled as close as 7yds from deer and shot one like this... it's helps if u hunt.. doesn't do much if u sit and wait... mine is some old hoop net netting sown on to one of my OCP's that are nolonger in regs.....I will needa find it... you don't have to put very much burlap on it.. tuck a little grass, mabe one or two cedar branches and be on your way ..

Aww wolfdog camo is a personal thing. It's fun to blend in well and definitely can't hurt a thing. But keep in mind animals don't see like we do different spectrums, and have better hearing and nose. I did a lot of camo when I was young face pain ECT, but in my area for deer I noticed on unplanned hunts after work in jeans and a red flannel I killed just as many. Good approach using terrain, cover and the wind are much more important than camo in my experience. Did you see the pictures I posted of my son at 7 in Brite orange killed his first turkey with that cheap 20lb bow spot and stalking it by himself? Just the best example I personally have to back up my opinion with a personal example. Yet everyone says you need full camo $10 a shot tsx and a shotgun that can shoot 75 yards to kill turkies!!! Hmm maybe it was a freak one off we'll both boys spot and stalked mature time last spring in basic camo one with head net one with face paint and killed mature toms at 13and 15 yards .
Did the camo help well maybe, but I was right between both the boys in a camo t shirt and jeans and no head cover or face paint so I won't say the camo made any different but it could not have hurt.

Bad approach or wrong wind direction and camo won't matter. Don't slam you doors and cycle you guns loudly when you get aout of the truck helps with coyote calling here. Approach and wind make a big difference in success especially if hunting pressure is high. I like a decoy that moves by the call and that a good ways away from me so they are focused on it not on me. I am more successful early in the morning to a few hours after daylight. I'm no expert calling coyotes and don't do it much but t do kill them doing it
