I have been on and off Predator Hunting for about 10 years, really never got serious with it, I picked up a real cheap Hunters Specialties Johnny Stewart Call years ago with five sounds, (cottontail, coyote howl, coyote pups, fawn, jackrabbit).
Years ago, using cottontail call, I successfully called in two red foxes, took one down.
The excitement always got my blood boiling!
Now I have kids of my own and want to carry on the excitement!
Took my two sons out for their first coyote hunt a few weeks back, there ended up being something that came up behind us, we saw their tracks and scat on the way out, never saw it while in the stand, I think it was a coyote? but the scat looked different? Still using this cheap call!
My kids are psyched and ready to keep hunting, but I feel like I'm ready to upgrade to a higher quality Foxpro to keep the excitement rolling!
I have been looking into either the "Shockwave" or the "X2S"
Anybody have thoughts on one or the other?
Currently have this call with these sounds (cottontail, coyote howl, coyote pups, fawn, jackrabbit):
Hunters Specialties Johnny Stewart Call (not the exact call, same color, different sounds)
Looking into purchasing either:
Shockwave from BigSky
or
X2S from "All Predator Calls"
