[QUOTE="SBruce, post: 437630, member: 21068"] The other posts on this thread have mentioned alot of good things too. You'll find that Binoculars will become invaluable hunting the open spaces you mentioned. There is no substitute for them. I've lost count of the times I've spotted coyotes within shooting distance or calling distance before I ever even made a sound. I always hunt the same land, and hunt it year around. Therefore, I don't use the howler until later in the fur season (don't want to show my hole card till I need to). Same goes for the coyote distress (save the best for last). This time of year, a simple prey distress sound will call in more coyotes than you can shoot, providing they are in earshot and haven't been recently educated (by yourself [B]or[/B] others). Another thing about howlers........there are many many different sounds made by coyotes. Some are only used certain times of the year and for specific reasons. Certain barks and howls are actually saying the [B]wrong[/B] thing to the coyote. Howling is another type of calling that is kinda specialized. My advice, for whatever it's worth.......get proficient and confident with the rabbit distress before confusing yourself even more by trying to "howl them in". When you're ready to graduate from the rabbit/fawn type of calls, get an instructional DVD or audio by Bill Austin or Randy Anderson or a host of others and practice first. Often times, simply immitating the coyotes vocalization is good enough, provided they aren't doing the warning barks and howls.
