INTRODUCTION
The Bark at the Moon Coyote Club began in 1990. Eight years prior, as a student at SUNY Cobleskill
majoring in Fisheries & Wildlife Technology, Andrew Lewand began to intensely study the eastern coyote and it's biology.
He then applied his hunting knowledge to the information he had learned and the result was a highly effective system of how
to hunt the coyote. Many years later, Lewand still enjoys pursuing the coyote and has formed The Bark at the Moon Coyote Club
as a way to share the thrill of predator hunting. At first, a seasonal newsletter was printed to communicate with fellow hunters.
With the increased popularity and convenience of the internet, the newsletter gave way to this website. We hope that you enjoy
the site and re visit often as it will be updated frequently.
CLUB GOALS
It is the goal of the
club to provide an environment where predator/varmint hunters can share interests and ideas. This website will serve as a
forum for obtaining information on any topic related to predator and varmint hunting.
BATMCC serves as the hub for the New York State Predator Hunter's Association and the New York State Predator Caller's
Association.

Founder: Andrew Lewand
As you read in the club introduction, Andrew Lewand has been fascinated with the
eastern coyote after being introduced to the predator in the early 1980's. Those initial outings to monitor coyote denning
sites truly enhanced his desire to learn all that he could about the curious canine. It was out west, however,
where Andrew gained his first true experience of hunting the coyote. Frequent hunting trips to Colorado and South Dakota
provided excellent opportunity to develop strategies to successfully call in coyotes.
After graduating college, Andrew was thrilled to see the coyote take hold in many
of the areas that he hunted for other game species, such as woodchucks, squirrels and deer. Ever since the early
eighties, Andrew has persued coyotes (as well as fox) and lists predator hunting as his main interest. Indeed,
it is this passion with the coyote that lead Andrew to found the Bark At The Moon Coyote Club. The "Club" has expanded
rapidly in the past few years and has allowed Andrew to make great friendships with fellow hunters and hunting industry leaders.
The future of the club, and all of it's undertakings, is exciting and Andrew is always striving to provide more services/events
for predator hunters.
Andrew's intense interest in predator hunting led him to become a highly respected speaker on various topics of predator
hunting. His multi-media seminars inform and entertain audiences across the northeast. Lewand is also a free lance
writer and his articles can be seen in hunting magazines such as The Varmint Hunter Magazine and Predator
Xtreme.
