RE: purring & clucking versus yelping
I like to cut and yelp at them to get them coming, but if they start to hang up on me I will back off the aggressive stuff and give them the soft yelps clucks and purrs along with some scratching in the leaves. And If they still remain hung up I will give them the silent treatment for 15 or 20 minutes. Wile calling for other hunters I have had some luck by sneeking away and calling. To sound like a hen who is leaving. As allways it all depends on the situation.
