Preference, Electronic calls or mouth calls how do you feel about them and the success you've had with them?

I have a Foxpro FX# and have called in a majority of coyotes with it.  That being said, I always have my hand calls with me and have called some dogs with them as well.  I like my hand call howlers better than my Foxpro's sounds.  I use hand calls almost exclusively at night.  My favorite hand call is a custom job made by a buddy down in Cali.  It's an antler fork.  One fork is voice for jackrabbit, the other is a sqeaker.

I have it.  Sounds good.  You can do both bobcat sounds and distress sounds with it.

Ever have one of those days? I went to get primos call Wali World did not have it so just went with my electic call. Found lots of cat tracks so I got set up. Put out my electic bunny loaded my gun put on my gloves latched the call to a bush back off a bit in the woods put down a cushion to set on gloves gun ready. Then came the moment pushed the call remote, nothing. Dead batteries. I always think ahead for everything. Not this time no extra ones. I guess that's the nice thing about a mouth call, they work most of the time  :yike: :yike: :chuckle:

Better luck next time. I only have mouth calls...I guess I am a purist...(but my success is not so pure.. ;)

I have been very tempted for a long time to pick up a fox pro though...

I like the cat nip as well...sounds pretty good and it easy to use.

You where right about being able to check out the tracks in the snow. It really helps in the area we went into. :drool:
