Distress, calls, and soft..... real soft...
Like Sheridan said, Soft... It is amazing how many coyotes are blown off of the stand just because the calling was to loud...
I like to call my first 2 series soft and muffled...
My third and forth a little louder, and then soft again for the remaining sets...
Calling is an art... In Predator Calling I think its not what you say... As long as you sound hurt, its how carefull you are.. A coyote can pinpoint sound like a guided missle... I have seen lots of times where the coyote has come from a great distance, and bee-lined right for me... Even as he has crossed fencelines, creeks, ditches, etc..
Scan everything.... You would be supprised to see a coyote sitting on his haunches, watchin and turn the other way when you go to start your next series because you started to loud...
and Practice with your call... A Good Predator Call is like a violin, you just dont pick it up and your good... Give it some time and learn its ins and outs...
