turning off the call
« on: January 23, 2013, 08:53:11 PM »
For some reason when I got the foxpro blasting and got a fox comin in, Im always thinkin I need to turn off the call before it gets to close. Annd they always turn around n run, I need to quit doing this bad habit!

I have the opposite problem.  I can't seem to get fox to come in to my call.  They'll get in to about 100 yards and always hang up on me.

Change sounds, to a softer one usually works, vole squeaks do good work!

Sounds like you have some pressured fox.  Shoot them at 100.
"Predators are either active & feeding, semi-active & callable, or utterly inactive & then practically speaking, no call is needed; we're just taking our guns for a walk. We can & should get used to it, & follow their leed cuz they just ain't eager nor apt to follow our’s any time soon!

I also turn the sound down, and Switch up the call to draw them in close, switch at 100yrds seems to work for me...

You guys are missing out on half the fun.  Hand calls!

Hand Calls is good... Didn't say I don't use them... just perfer the electronic .. I can place that far out in front of my set up and do what ever I want... ( lower the Volume or crank it up or switch it to a different call.. and again it is down Field... love that part  all i got to do is wait and watch... everyone has there choice...
