Title: Called in a bobcat today!
Post by: Elkslayer on February 03, 2009, 09:51:23 PM: I went out behind the house today and called in this nice female. Started out with woodpecker distress then switched to cottontail distress. She came in at about the 35 minute mark! At least thats when I saw her after about 10 more minutes of sneaking in closer I put her down at 15yds with the 22 hornet.
They sure are cool to watch coming in.

Were you using an e-caller woodpecker call? or a hand call? I have a couple on the Foxpro, and I can do a decent one on a hand call, but no luck so far. If you were using a Foxpro, which woodpecker were you using?

I use the wildlife technologies electronic call. I seem to have pretty good luck with it as long as im in a good location.
