How long of sequences do you let it call for? I’ve tried predator hunting a few times unsuccessfully, but I’ve never just let it stay on like that continuously playing. Great shot!
If you shoot the first one you will never get that true trophy.

I usually let it go for 20-30 minutes before I start switching it up.

The video is a great example of how the cats don't wonder why the same sound keeps playing over and over and over... the cat was still curious, still pressing in, still working the approach the whole time. Don't be concerned about 30min PLUS of the same sound.

I worried about the reparative cycle of my e-call but guess it doesn't matter.  Good to know  :tup:
