Watched the "Vermintators Bow-mania" the other night.  Good video and funny too.  I can really relate to having a coyote jump my string.  I've never shot one with my bow that was running though....now that was something to see!

I've only seen that one, and the first two Calling all Coyotes, haven't seen any of the new ones.  Learned a little more about howling on them though.

I've been watching "Calling All Coyotes V" good so far. . .not grainy like what I hear the first one(s) were. . .it's long and I'm watching it in about 30 minute sessions. . .but it's 4 hrs long so it will take a while to finish it. . .

I'm a big Randy Anderson Fan

I own nearly all of his videos (all of the Primos) and enjoy them mucho. Watching these videos gave me the idea that an older, out-of-shape dude who doesn't like eating wild game meat much (heresay) could enjoy hunting again. The idea of having the critters come to you is very attractive to men of a certain girth (oh, I'm not that heavy).

Each DVD is different, and all contain enough variety, that if you didn't like the hunting in, say, Texas so much, there was footage in Saskatchewan to offset it.  I really like the variety of terrain and weather they hunt in.  The content inspires me to not sit on my ass (in the house that is) when the weather isn't perfect for hunting.

I appreciate the down-home friendliness of the patter, with little boastfulness. They treat the animals they shoot with respect, and don't show a lot of blood. 

My favorite one-time appearance was with young Skye Higgins' first coyote.  I enjoy all the regulars such as Dave Tatum, Glen Zink, Shawn Heyden, and Wooly Kowerchuck. These are all guys you would enjoy hunting with, which, in a sense, you are.

If you like one Anderson DVD, you will like them all. The very early DVD's are a bit rougher, but they amazingly follow the same format as the most recent.  I really appreciate the quality of the videography Randy puts out (but for the first few).  It is much better than other coyote hunting DVDs I have watched. He sets the bar high, in my opinion.

Some 90% of the content has instructive value (if repetitive), with the balance being the montages set to music that are more "whack 'em and stack 'em". 

I appreciate that Randy uses synched sound for all of the hunting sequences (sound recorded as the video was being shot, not totally dubbed).  By contrast, the Best of the Quest video has music dubbed over nearly all of the hunting sequences. I don't like that format nearly as much. It takes me away from the beautiful places they are hunting.

My favorite? Probably the Truth V (the latest). All are great $$ values, showing hours of hunting and not too much palaver.

Ivar

Footnote: My wife absolutely hates these videos and doesn't appreciate my hunting coyotes. I've given her all the arguments. The sound of the calling makes her pull her hair out.  I can only watch these videos, now, when she is not present. So there is a dark side.

I watch alot of Randys videos and have like 4 or 5 of em i think. I would love to meet him and Wooly Bully...Wooly seems to be a shooter, some of those shots are pretty good.

The informational video they put out was really good to learn from. I never really get tired of watching them. :tup: :tup:

I wish he has some for bears.

Now THAT'S funny!  My wife doesn't like them either, and had an ablolute fit a while back when I sent her to the auto parts store, and they were watching the SAME video at the store as my son was at home!  She came home and was mumbling something about predator hunting being some sort of a contagious disease, at least in and around Castle Rock.

Great videos, hope they can continue the same down-home, yet professional type format.  I tried making a snowmobile video, and WOW, that takes alot of time!

Ive got primos mastering the art and calling all coyotes 1 through 4. Can't wait to get 5 but seams to be sold out everywhere I look. I think they are awsome and I learn new things from them all the time.

I had one, never finished watching it once, the guy never shuts up. I gave it and a couple others to coasthunter jay. Very boring. Worse than watching golf or a fishing show.

Sounds to me like you watched Mastering the Art which is more of a talking clip. In the calling all coyotes clips there is lots of action.

I agree, a little talky.  But great vids for sure.
I've hunted almost everyday of my life, the rest have been wasted.

I could be wrong, but I believe the first three Randy made were, Calling all Coyotes, Verminators with Rick Pallet, and then CAC II. These were before Primos. The first is really good, lots of action. Vermenators is OK, but I did not care for all the bobcat action. CACII is good, but alot more talk that the first.

I really like Randy Anderson. At first I had a hard time with his corny behavior but I really like the guy now. I have the primos vids, verminators and calling all coyotes vids. I dig his buddies too. Woolly, and his neighbor he hunts with, can't remember his name at the moment. That guy is an awesome shot. Coyote vids are really the only hunting videos I like other than anything with Shockey.

I don't like the front porch section on the Truth series. They sit there with there good ole boy accents wearing camo and selling me calls. I skip those parts.
