Known around here
With the increasing Coyote sightings in my neighborhood, I am thinking of getting a self defense baton. Anyone here have any experience with batons?
You are correct. They are not legal here in California. Maybe a big stick will do the trick like a piece of ironwood. I will do some research.Just a word of caution, batons are not legal in many states within the USA. Know your laws.
Pepper spray might be a good substitute.
Agreed about knowing the laws.Just a word of caution, batons are not legal in many states within the USA. Know your laws.

I agree, a cane would slow me down and I would most likely just carry it.My problem with a walking cane is that my normal walking speed is usually faster than most of the young folks. That would make a cane seem a little strange, I think.
What about Bear Spray?Agreed about knowing the laws.
Even pepper spray has some stipulations about age, size of container, where it's prohibited, etc. which vary state to state ==>> Pepper Spray Laws by State 2022
What her dogs attacked another dog walker? What happened to the attacking dogs?It’s a good idea. A friends front door lock failed, wind blew it open and her dogs got out. They inflicted $19,000 worth of vet bills on the poor bastard walking his dogs. Her insurance covered everything.
I’ve seen self defense canes. If I remember correctly the handle part is steel, the rest wood. One can inflict some damage swinging the steel part.

Have you ever been to California?Isn't the risk of an attack from a Coyote extremely low\rare, like 1 per year?
If public records can be trusted doesn't California experience a mass shooting every 8 days? (and that is well below the us average, believe you rate 44th), but yeah let's worry about some native animal.
Yes her dogs attacked a dog being walked. Nothing happened to her dogs. They don’t seem to be the type that would do this but they are dogs so not always predictable.What her dogs attacked another dog walker? What happened to the attacking dogs?
Sounds like the perfect application for a gun…….that’s what we do in TX.I agree, a cane would slow me down and I would most likely just carry it.
That thing looks dangerous. Sure I would find a way to hurt myself with it!Here’s another idea LOL. Sedgley glove pistol. View attachment 137947
