Title: Callin.... E-caller vs Handcall
Post by: polyanskiyalex on March 20, 2012, 07:15:31 PM
Whats the first thing you reach for when you call them yotes in. E-caller or Hand call? I know the different situation call for different techniques, but in your honey pot spot what do you use? Also what area? East or West?

Hand call: Howler or Distress call , East Side.

I start with a hand call: Howler usually gets a reply if they are there.  E-caller is good for a longer stand, and getting the sneaky ones to get curious enough to come and look.  Dryside.

E-caller when the cover is tight and there is a good chance that I will not see the critter over 100 yrds.  E-caller if I'm hunting open country that I cant have a hiddden shooting place.  Open call if the stand is really good. 

The e-caller and decoy gives me a better opertunity to kill a coyote when the stand is less than ideal.

A lot of times I will get one of my quiet hand calls out and do some soft calling in case something is close. Other times I will just use a hand call howler when I start a stand.

E-caller.  i have used both but now i am exclusively using an e-caller.  i like the versatility and number of sounds.  sometimes it is tough to know what sound they want to hear from day to day
