I sure felt like an idiot with that call screaming. I think I may have scared all the animals out of our county. Even my neighbors cattle were restless. Ha!

Them suckers are extremely smart, and with all the deer hunting going on currently and dead deer along the roads caused by the rut, many gut piles, they are not hungry enough yet to take any chances, later on in the winter they will be a little easier.
We did the rabbit call thing in the middle of the winter a few seasons back and this coyote came barreling in inside of 60 seconds.


All the really good ideas I've ever had came to me while I was milking a cow.
