Pay attention to the wind, never call into an area where the wind is blowing right into. Wear full camo, including a face mask, be patient, don't over call, and don't take any shots you might miss, if you shoot at a dog and miss, you will probably never see him again. Also purchase a DVD of some kind, everyone will tell you something with Randy Anderson, but if you can't find a RA DVD, just get something so you get a feel for how the set up will go down. Lastly be patient, whatever DVD you get, or TV show you watch you will think this is going to be the easiest thing you have ever done in your life.........it won't be. I am not saying you won't call one in your first time out, but if you don't call one in right away, don't be surprised.
