Be honest about your shooting skills, know your gun, know your ammo and how it performs, and know your ranges (use a bloody range finder if you must) and know your platforms range limitations.
After hunting coyotes since 1968, I have a feeling for what I am doing, having hunted in Texas, Oklahoma, Wyoming and New Mexico and I an a full time ranch a owner who hunts coyotes when the truck engine starts.
Hell, a .22 Hornet will kill an elk if you know what you are doing, it's not a coyote killer of choice by those with knowledge and experience.
I shoot at the National level in competition and know what ranges are. Don't need a range finder, thanks to your government and training.
