I think I have overblown the coyote calls I have or else my coyotes must be very educated by now. I have a mouse, a rabbit, and an open reed call. I adjusted my open reed call's reed to where it now blows super easy so I must have had it out of adjustment. I will use this call this year.
I have ordered one call and am thinking about one or two more. Any suggestions?

I really like the Primos Lil Dog. I can make darn near any sound i want with it. It also helps to get some of the Johnny Stewart tapes to practice different sounds like the grey fox distress sounds. Try changing up the cadence and intensity of your calls. That will seperate you from the rest of the herd using recorded sounds. Simple decoys like a feather also help.

Same as the last 15 years...an old green Circe. I've bought quite a few in between then & now but none work as well. At least for me.

Kettle Creek calls Trash mouth. Backstabber is a super call for closed reed distress.

One more vote for the Lil Dog, that thing works great and is easy to use.

I'm never without a Tally Ho, Mini Blaster, Critr' Call or a Tweety in my bag along with several custom/semi custom calls.
Now if I could only use one production call it would be the Tally Ho.

Opposite of the leapord man, I have never had much luck with a cottontail call. 95% of my dogs have been called in with a Sceery Jackrabbit call.

Truth be told, I think mine is like my favorite fishing lure...I use it more often..therefore is succeeds more often...cause I see we aren't that far apart, so its probably not tone deaf yotes in the neighborhood.... Ingwe

The actual sound you make probably only constitutes about 20% of the success of the stand. It just isn't that important. WHERE YOU MAKE THAT SOUND IS THE MOST IMPORTANT FACTOR IN YOUR SUCCESS BY FAR.
Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

what about the approach to the stand some say it makes all the difference others say just stroll in and sit down. Any thoughts?

Those that just stroll in and sit down miss lots of animals.
You gotta think about approach and setup when you start your truck, not when you get out of it...
