Well, no one answered my original question so I’ll tell you a funny story that just happened.
My FOXPRO FX3 arrived yesterday and I decided to give it a try about 30 minutes ago. Living in the country there are many critters around and hearing coyotes is fairly common. So, I punched-up the COYOTE LOCATOR (#4) and placed the caller about 15 feet from my barn while I stood just inside with a field of view of a ¼ mile down my treed pasture.
As I switched between the #4 and the number #13, the DSG COTTONTAIL, I noticed movement about 100 yards away in the trees along the creek. All this within the first 10 minutes so I’m thinking this new toy is mighty impressive. As I continued to watch the tree line my 26 year old neighbor (I am 70) came out on a low crouched trot carrying his .30-30 Winchester. He was moving between trees and trying to figure out just where those damned dogs were that were ripping that poor rabbit apart.
Anyway, I ran him around for 20 or 30 minutes all the time biting my tongue to keep from laughing out loud. Too damned funny! I finally muted the caller until he gave up and went home. I have not confessed and do not intend to until I have a lot more fun with him. This is going to be a great and long summer. Maybe I’ll fess-up over a beer at the 4th of July BBQ. Maybe not …………..
You need an attractor that twitches and conceal it good, but have the movable part where he can see it. Then have a note there that says gotcha when he walks up to it. Also that you videoed it all! And when he looks around, reveal yourself and wave--now that would be priceless. Lastly you could post it here for our entertainment--now that would be hard to top, calling in a hunter LOL.
