Title: Bobcat Calling
Post by: aer212 on December 29, 2008, 04:46:25 PM: I'm new here and would like to know what a bobcat calling sequence should be like. What I mean is what sounds to use and how long for each one and stuff like that. Any help is appreciated. Thanks Aaron. Also I did search the forum and I didn't find what I was looking for.

I'm interested in this too. Do you actually call steadily for 45 minutes or so? If so, I assume you vary the sequence, tone, and volume too? Thanks for the info.

no..I will rest a little then low moans,with a struggle thrown in.If its a real tight set or thick, I start low volume..every set is different..open country I blast it.
