I usually ease up on hunting yotes in the summer heat around here.It gets just plain old miserable hot around here this time of year for yotes and hunters alike.I don`t care much for night hunting so I limit my hunts to early morning and sometimes an hour before dark.
It already 96-97 degrees in the daytime here and we haven`t even scratched the ticket on July and August yet.Along with the heat here comes the onslaught of chiggers.They put a serious hurting on me too.Welps about the size of a dime all over your legs is not a lot of fun.. I wear dog flea collars around my boots but I still get a few on me.Overall, hunting really stinks for the next few months around here.
Do any of you fellas change your hunting styles or tactics to accomodate the heat of summer?

Hey Bea..Great pics and yup I agree,that is a wicked little round.I had no luck Sunday evening with yotes.Couldn`t get a taker to bite.It will change though.Always does hunting yotes.Maybe my next hide will be a one call kill...
It looks like you have that little rifle setup pretty nice too in the optic department.Nice ballcap by the way...

I slow way down i the summer. The corn and beans get higher and makes it hard. I like laying down along the corn or beans and call down the field roads.
I just wish it would SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
