Anyone used unusual calls with success???

ATOMICJOE23:  if you use the javelina call and have success here, let me know.  I have one coming from the desert area's of Southern Cal.  I have had no success as of yet with it but you never know.

Good luck.

they make great bear call's. they use a brass reed. Rick

[bearmanric]

you can use all type's of call's elk, turkey, duck. deer use your imagination. sound distressed's. Diaphram's make killer sound's. Rick

[atomicjoe23]

I've never used a diaphragm call before. . .I've heard they take a while to get used to, but the fact that they stay in your mouth and you don't have to use your hand is appealing. . .an E-call sounds the most appealing to me. . .just not the price. . .

I'm gonna try some fawn in distress right around the fawning season this spring and see what I can come up with!!!

Fawn distress will work all year long.

[bearmanric]

do it on a closed reed wa  wa wa  wa wa drawn out . there is another sound that work's. but it is Billy the kid's secret it's a good one. i have called in my last to turkey's with a diaphram call yelping. it helped calling elk in the 80's cow talk so wasnt hard to learn killer sound's take's practice in air. cant leave till morning. have 6 woodpecker call's and a couple Howler's to send out. as long as i'm through California by monday morning.Rick

I've used diaphram calls for year, they work great once you get used to them. Makes for quick kiyi's when you need both hands on the rifle and they stop incoming coyotes right now for that perfect shot.

I called in a Bobcat with a coyote pup/raccoon fight call. Thats about as unusual as I've had results with.

When we are using the Foxpro, and are aways apart, I'll turn it to something different to signal to my son or whoever that it's time to pick up and move.  Once I thought I would be funny and I went to an "elephant distress", (I bought the caller used and it came already loaded on the call), and about 30 seconds later, here one comes running wide open!  My son missed, and then I missed twice more it took us by such surprise!  So they WILL come to a sound they have never heard before!

for the first time i used the "Yellow Hammer" on my johnny stewart. saw a coyote coming in within two minuetes. then he either spotted my pickup or winded us. still impressive though

[Gutpile]

I used to have a Johnny Stewart and never had luck with the Yellowhammer. Sure sounded good though.

[lamar_hunter]

yea i was kind of suprised but i will definantly try it again. i really want to get up in the mountains and try it on a bobcat because i know they love birds.

Chicken's, Goats, also what works great is a Greyfox pup, or a fighting greyfox and coyote
