Title: Favorite hand calls for Coyotes
Post by: lucky33 on June 04, 2013, 12:04:52 PM: If you were to run hand calls exclusively, what would be your go to for yotes? I learned on Primos, granted im not their biggest fan, but Im used to them and they sing to me. My fav hands down is the CATNIP, I love the bite-down reed and the raspy roughness. Any other howlers out there worth trying? I love the work by Rick R. on here, I need to get my hands on one of his howlers :drool:

I like RR's open and close reed early production calls, Sceery's bite call and big horn howler with the horn removed and Tony Tebbe's red and orange open reed. Still playing with TT's little yellow open reed, great pup distress.

With just a change of bands I can get any pitch that I want. I have noticed that pitch differences in coyotes depending on region. I have had good luck with Larry D Jones calls, especially the cottontail reed type. I can tell you that I will never own another Primos or Lohman call. Pure junk, IMO.
