[QUOTE="DSheetz, post: 2306356, member: 91783"] Helicopter hunting was part of the job . I enjoyed it but then I've always liked riding in one I just like flying . Not really I just shot them with what I had handy it's a strange feeling to only see a blur in your scope you know for sure you hit them if they are laying there when you lower your rifle . Use lip squeaks a squeaker or really low volume if you are using an e-caller . If you can just barley hear it they can hear it at several yards , they hear mice under snow and dried grasses as well as bugs in leaves and grass so I like to keep it on a lower volume , that's why they will come from behind or from the sides of your stand it's quieter and peaks their interest better . I like to start off using low sounds you never know when you will have one closer then you realize and I don't want to scare them starting out with a loud noise at the beginning of my stand , then they will set out there to just watch you often after that . Keep it low and usually a higher pitch don't call a lot just now and then so that they want to slowly come in to investigate . When you get to doing it with the intention of doing it you will find it more exciting and interesting then calling them and having them charge in . You get to see and study what they are doing as they approach . At first I did it for the ones that were just setting out there looking at me because I had used too much volume on them and they knew something wasn't right . After waiting several minutes maybe up to 30 or 40 minutes I started with just slight sounds and found that it got them interested and moving my way . Try that on a few of your stands after you have been calling your usual way and are going to call it quits for that stand before you head back to your truck , you just might have a surprise waiting for you that you had no idea was in the area .
