Try a howl first, then go to the distress calls.  In my experience this always seems to work well.  Makes the others think a yote got a rabbit and then they want to come steal it!  I learned that from a randy anderson video a while ago and it works!

I like what I'm reading here, all of the above is standard when I deer and hog hint, ummm, with the exception of stealing Christmas trees in the last 8 years. That was about 32 years ago and the statute of limitations on karma long expired....

Having been a hunting guide off and on for over forty years I am always amazed when I go to pick up hunters in a deer stand or duck blind.  The first thing I see from a distance are their faces and hands.  If I can see them a deer, duck or predator has seen them from two or three times farther away.  Use a face net, gloves and or camo paint.  Shining faces and hands are like a becon to animals that something is wrong.  Kill the shine on firearms and high luster blue scopes.  Anything that flashes, like watches and eye glasses, will give you away.  JMHO  ET

A trick I like to use is hitting a puppy in distress call immediately after taking a coyote on stand .. Surprising how often it will get another dog into you ... like today , shot the first dog in at 15 yds ,  distress called and second showed up at 350 and died at 100  , first double of the year .. Sorry no pics , dead battery .
