Everybody take it easy as we are all here to learn from one another, Browning corrected me on a subject the other day and he was exactly right. I am always open to constructive critism as long as it is constructive and I can learn from it. As far as being vocal it is my understanding that during the mating season { Byron South Seminar} that this is the time of year that they do howl more than usual to locate mates.Early on into mating season you can especially call in the males to a female invitation howl. Just what I have been told by others with alot more experience than me. May God bless Byron and his family in this time of need and pray for his Daughter Raegon and also for Tripod and family.
