In the spring you just leave them where they lay... unless you want to take pictures of blown up varmints and post them here.
You might want to check with the landowner as to what he wants killed... many landowners would prefer the coyotes be let alone.
Coyotes kill groundhogs and mice which is beneficial to many farmers.

Not where I hunt 'yotes. Of course, where I hunt them, the farmers keep livestock (sheep, etc.), so they want the 'yotes controlled.
You can donate coyote pelts in the winter to a number of native organizations who will take them, tan them and make clothing out of them. That's what I do with mine. In the Spring, when their winter coat is gone, we usually just drag them off into the bush.
As for groundhogs...stuff them back down their hole. Eat it if you want...but, I don't suggest it...
You should not throw the groundhogs down the holes... the coyotes will just dig them out larger to get at them. Just leave them on top, the landowners will appreciate it.
Buzzards... Raptors... coyotes all get a freel lunch... and if you leave them out you may just get a shot at a coyote.

I killed my first coyote with buckshot from a 12ga. It was an unbelievably exciting experience with a close in shot at a running coyote. THAT felt like hunting.
The only hard part is going to be getting a coyote to come within shotgun distance. They are very smart and wary animals and if they have been hunted in your area they will be nigh impossible to get within shotgun range.
