man I must be the odd guy here, I would GUESS, that I might call in a coyote in about 1 out of every 50 sets I do here, big woods mostly, little room to view things at times, and
just sound doesn't carry as far with so many rolling hills and such
also think coyotes here are pretty nervous, due to so many folks shot at them and during contests, they get called to my a LOT of folks and often
know several guys that go out and scout them by calling to them and then walk away after getting busted, IMO all there doing is making smarter harder to kill coyotes! HAHA
But I call in way more foxes and owls and hawks and a TON of crows all the time
last time out I called in several turkeys with a dying rabbit call??
and NOT just on one set
but 4-5 times several miles apart that day!??
wild life can be a crazy thing I guess??

I think I'm on par with others here. Probably about 25% success rate if you go by stand. By hunting days, I'd say I'm probably more like 80-90%. I do get skunked on occasion, and I'm not too proud to admit it.
