ive been coyote hunting for a couple years and ive had an electronic caller(which broke on me)and mouth calls, and from my experience ive called alot more coyotes in with a mouth call than w/ my electronic call. if your a begginer than an electronic call might be better if your just wantin to jump into killin yotes,which i thought was gonna happen, i guess thats what you should do, but if i was you i would start with mouth calls and if you cant get the hang of them then go with a electronic caller, but keep in mind electronic callers arent cheap and sometimes dont work as well as hoped,speaking from my own experiances
