well that would be your call but it is harder to see your dogs unless you have extra flashing lights on collars and enough light to make sure your shooting the right animal. never heard of anyone that did it too dangerous. thats when coyotes are getting together and will take out your dogs. have seen people track their dogs and they end up in a coyote den and all they bring out with them is their collars, maybe a half dead dog. its just a whole lot easier to wake up and drop the dogs on a track right when the sun comes up yotes are tired dont want to run anymore and ther done runnin. it usually takes the dogs less than an hour to git it up and runnin. they dont have to run a track out so long b4 getting it up and running. plus the dog can see a lot better during the day

Running yotes at night is the best thing you can do for a coyote hound young or old. Most times if you run in the morning during the summer coyotes dont like to run much in the daylight and it makes for a pretty boring race because they normally den up. Running at yotes at night can be dangerous depedning on the yotes, terrain, dogs etc. If you run into a mean yote you had better hope that your dog has enough grit to make them run otherwise you may end up with torn up hounds or no race. Most people don't kill during the summer because coyotes are nursing and raising young yotes. Easiest way is to get a siren or locator and locate the yotes then send the hounds to that location.
Have you ever ran these coonhounds on coyotes before and just wondering what kind of hounds they are?

The guys running coyote on here seem to be pretty sharp!
I have run into soooooooo many guys that run coyote that believe their dogs will kill every coyote in the woods if given the chance. Thats just not true.....big male coyotes, especially in mating season will give hounds all they bargain for and more......
I concur with the advice given.....early morning is best time.......
Dogs that want to fight usually get ruined from running coyote......a dog that will bay them is much better in my opinion.
One other note to original poster......running coyotes by yourself is a pretty big task....maybe impossible at night.....hounds running yotes will cover some serious ground in a hurry and if you dont keep up with them they will even get out of tracker range depending on the terrain your in......

Best time to run them at night is during summer when the corn is shoulder high. Find a 100 acre plus field, Locate coyotes with a siren get your dogs leashed up and listening for the howling, locate, and dump. Get a lawn chair, and enjoy the next 6+ hours of circling in the cornfield, watching your gps, lots and lots of fun. They will usually never catch them with that much room to run, it's a game for yotes, and great training for dogs with no bad habits forming from pen running.

I have been running with coyote hounds for 7 years and have never ever seen 1,2,3,4,5 or even 6 hounds at once kill a yote they bite and fight a little but never kill them! In my opionion not to many if any single hounds can take out a full grown male coyte or even a 30 pound coyote
