A lot of folks have gone to using night vision stuff to get coyotes & hogs. Works quite well,,, until the yotes figure that one out too. Many years ago,, (1970's) I went out night calling for foxes. I was using a normal spotlight with a red lens. I set my call up,, settled in,, waited about 10 minutes,, then hit the cassette player. My light was off. I gave it about 30 seconds,, flipped on the light & I had 5 gray foxes at a run towards me. Freaked me a little,, but I did manage to get one,, and saw where they ran. Apparently,, I had set up near a den. Traps helped me get a few more.
It's wild when a crowd of critters all come running,, fast,,,!
Tell them to focus on nailing one at a time,, being sure of the shot.
Or use a 12ga semi auto shotgun!

FL has a simple vermin hunting process, any gun, any sight, night or day, except parks and preserves. Yotes and wild hogs are vermin.
I carry a 6mm Mongoose on the farm and am working on a new 24 GPC for the Thor 4. This is the last yote that came across the back, took an 80gr at 75 yards from my open screen door from the Mongoose. Anytime, anywhere.
