    predator calls?

    Which one would you get? Don't know much about them, or predator calling for that matter. That being said I like the idea of the moving decoy along with the electronic call.

    If you have the money, get a ShockWave from Foxpro - it's INCREDIBLE! The FoxJack decoy can be attached to the unit and it's got as good an action as any decoy.

    A e-caller is an investment. Don't skimp. Get the best one you can possibly get - it'll last you for many years and if you get a really good one it'll pay for itself on a whole host of species of game. An e-caller is great for more than just calling predators - I use it for turkey hunting, deer hunting, waterfowl, etc. Most calling accessories are geared to work with FoxPro because they're the big dog in the e-caller industry; so that's another reason to go Foxpro.

    My advice: DO NOT buy from a box store - buy from AlPredatorCalls.com or directly from FoxPro. Doing this will allow you to SELECT the sounds that come with your caller and, if you should need warranty service, it's MUCH easier to deal with them if you bought from one of those two.

      Theres foxpro and theres everything else for electronics. Hand calls I like the burnham bros mini blaster.

      As for decoys, Ive used turkey feathers tied to and arrow via kite string with some success. I now use a mojo. Ive found using a decoy is almost a must during daylight so any movement by the hunter is distracted by the decoy. For the most part I like huntin them at night where a decoy isnt needed

      This coming from someone who has an older johnny stewart and some wildgame innovations.


      Ditto on APcalls.com

        I have the "Fox Pro" and really enjoy it. It has done me a great job last fall, winter and early spring. It has called up a numer of coyotes, bobcats and fox. It takes a little getting used to the way it opperates, but once you get used to it the thing is great. I would buy another one if this one goes down. Make sure that you turn it off completely when you are not using it or it will run the batteries down. I have place a velcro strip on the off switch to make sure that it says off when not in use.

          For electronics, go foxpro. For hand calls I love primos calls. Especially the hot dog and the kiyi

            I bought an Icotec and have been pleased with it. I was turned off by the attitude I got from the foxpro guys and decided to spend my money with someone else that appreciated it

              X2 I always disconnect the batteries when I'm not hunting.

                I recommend the sceery ap-6 to all callers. You can do so many different sounds with it. My favorite call.

                    ^^^This is good advice.

                    And especially good advice if upgrading Foxpros. I have an FX5 that came with 50 sounds. Then I bought a Shockwave, which comes with 100 sounds. Had I bought it from a box store, 50 of those 100 sounds would have been the same as what I already owned, so I would have only netted 50 additional sounds. But because I bought it from AllPredatorCalls.com, I was able to choose a different 100 sounds than what come with my FX5. So now I have a total of 150 different sounds. Those extra 50 sounds would cost approximately $78 if you bought them from Foxpro later.

                      I hunt east Texas near Huntsville I have two electronic calls two different primos calls and a knight and hale cotton tail distress hand call and I've called in 10 times as many coyotes with that hand call than either electric call . And a hell of a lot cheaper.

                        I too do better with my hand calls than with my electronic call. There is something to be said about getting the sound away from you when an animal is coming in hard though.

                            Check out the verminator mouth calls we have great success with these calls and they're cheap.

                              Foxpro Shockwave with the Foxjack III decoy. That is all you need to research. Like said before, buy direct from Foxpro or AllPredatorCallsdotcom.
