I have done so in years past, when I had but a shotgun to hunt with, mostly over small green fields where I knew there was a good
 chance of a close 'yote. Never got but one 'yote, but plenty of deer that way.

I have a new Benelli Supernova that I want to try deer hunting with; maybe take a doe in the woods with it, and hope a coyote is not far behind.

I have used it when required, like on a stand with dogs running the deer, but I'd never use it given the choice!
