See, this is where you get out on a limb, Tim. By virtue of being "old" you suggest that I'm responsible for the recession as well as Obama getting elected president. That is patently false and I resent being lumped in with the likes of Paul, who MAY VERY WELL BE responsible!
Quit generalizing! You're just like everybody from Minneesota.
Good hunting. LB

QUIT WHINING, PAUL!
Somebody is responsible. It could very well be you. I have heard you speak favorably of "The One" several times. Can you prove your innocence, otherwise you sound guilty, to me, and especially, to Tim?
koko; yes or no?

Thats quite a dance you do whenever someone zeros in on your bullshit Tim, anyhow it IS your fault because you ARE a liberal, stop blaming the true americans and take your medicine bitch. You are a lucky sonofabitch Tim, it seems that the old political forum from the darkside has become invisible, the powers that be over there have no use for that sort of shit nowadays otherwise I would post your own words and settle this dispute about your liberal ways once and for all. You just keep dancing and back pedaling Timmy.
You guys didnt think my sig line was just random did you, he`s a liberal, trust me.

Golly jeepers. Back in the day before e-callers and high technology, I didn't bother myself with making bankshots with sounds off canyon walls like in some old "B" western movie to confuse the coyote. I just, as Scott said earlier, read the coyote's body language from afar. Always been amazed at how close they can get to the source with very little to go off of. If he was coming in, I shut the hell up and let him come on in. If somewhere between where I first saw him and where he got sidetracked, he began trekking off course and I needed to, uh, coax him back toward me, I simply game him a couple soft coaxing squeaks with my lips, or maybe off the tips of my AP-6 with the end of the call buried down into my jacket so as not to give the coyote such a specific point of focus. Worked back then, and works now.
In another post, someone made the point that using e-callers and hand calls concurrently involved, for them, getting their attention with the hand calls and fine tuning their focus into the killing field with the e-caller to direct the coyote away from the hunter(s). Same goes here, but vice versa. Call them from afar with the big speaker and, if you have to, tweak their approach with a couple very subtle lipsqueaks once they get somewhat close. Low-tech to no-tech, but deadly efficient. [ February 15, 2011, 07:18 PM: Message edited by: Cdog911 ]

Thanks Scott for all your comments in reference to the current calling situation with all the new callers that are attempting to call coyotes today. My current health conditions and the required use of a wheelchair are limiting my calling opportunities. I sure miss all the good days we had calling together when we worked as SD ADC Trappers. It’s GREAT to see all the comments that you post with your past calling and ADC work experiences.

Rich:
I can see Scott smiling already when he reads your comments. We worked together for a number of years with SD GF&P. Scott was always a go-getter as a trapper and his love for calling coyotes just never stops. The SD program has been going through some funding losses and personnel changes. I sure enjoyed the 15 years when I worked with that program.

SD Howler, Yes, Scott is the real deal but boy is he ever ugly. I think maybe he is part coyote, I mean he sure resembles one when he grins. Uses himself for a decoy ya see. A walking coyote decoy, now that's kinda handy. ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif)

Cdog911,
Interesting thought on using hand calls and e-caller in combination. That may have some merit.
What I find interesting, within the topic of call authenticity, I cannot remember a coyote that ever showed anything but a positive reaction to a lip squeak. I often wondered what it sounds like to them. All I know is that it's probably the best call I have ever used. Unfortunately, it's distance is limited.
Steve T.
Thanks for the kind words. Those were really good days and I sure appreciate all the time we spent together and all the important elements of this job you taught me or helped me with. I didn't take what I learned from others for granted.
Unfortunately this program is not what it once was. I'd love to get together sometime Steve and talk about better days.
Rich: "Yes, Scott is the real deal but boy is he ever ugly."
Why thank you very little Rich. LOL!

terrain will help my decision. i've tried shooting the farthest first thinking the close one would be an easy thing but it seldom works out that way.expecially with varied terrain. .i'd rather take the female first if i can no mater where she is

I got confused? A whole page, not on topic, not even close. I had to scroll to the top before I remembered that bearhunter was maybe talking about female bears or some such? I think I agree what he said?

I witnessed something interesting this summer while at work. We have several cottontails that are about half tame and they hang around the buildings all the time. They do get harrassed at night by the local coyotes and the birds of prey, so they're not tame in the sense that you can catch them, but they will allow us to walk to with-in 20 or 30 yards of them before they bolt. BUT, just screwing around this summer, I starting lip squeeking to see what a rabbit would do and I actually called two different bunnys to with-in a few feet of me. I mean these two rabbits, at seperate times, started about 30 or 40 yards from me and when I lip squeeked, they come running, just like a guy would like to see a coyote do. With that said, it made me beleive that my lip squeek must sound a lot like a baby bunny in distress.

Along that same line, TR, I had a cottontail that kept getting into my garden this summer. Finally having had enough, I grabbed the .22 and set out to fix my problem. Except, the bunny had escaped into grassy field behind my house. I could see him about thirty yards away, but he was hunkered down. I threw a couple clods of dirt near him to try and stand him up but all he did was hunker down tighter. Finally, I did a couple very short whines as high-pitched as I could and his head popped right up, then exploded. Go figure.

Probably not wanting to see where the distress is coming from but rather wanting to see the carnage, like so many humans on the highways like to do. Since we don't have trees where I do most of my calling, most jacks just run to the highest hill near by to do the same.
