thanks coyote john . since my last post ive used it twice, with only the cotton tail in distress. i saw nothing . i was in camo at ground level .calling into the wind , with no cover scent on . with a tree behind my back. i put the caller out about 70 feet away next to a rigor rabbit. and turned it up all the way. the caller i have is not the one with the remote ,so i cant switch it back and forth and cant control the volumn, should i keep it next to me , so i can control it ? how high should the volumn be? what about the decoy , if im using another sound like say , male coyote challenge or grey fox pup in distress should i put the decoy out? any input or info will be greatly appreciated!
