[QUOTE="DSheetz, post: 2747712, member: 91783"] Ed: like you I have noticed that along with too much volume so many with E-Callers call way too much and with the sounds that aren't usual for the time of the year. I noticed that even a lot of guys that have been doing control work or hunting and calling coyotes a long time don't really know how the real animals behave when they are scared or injured just due to the fact that they may not have been exposed to it yet. Years ago, when I was starting out, I was really anal about learning and found a book called the Art of War by Sun Tzu in it, it was stated that you should know your enemy so then I figured that it was reasonable that I should also know my opponent's food sources and how they behaved if I was going to try and imitate them so I could make their sounds to fool them. I asked a guy once that had been doing control work for 20 or 25 years if he had ever heard coyotes mating. He said no he hadn't had I. I told him yes just a couple of days before. And that they are pretty vocal when they are. He then asked me how it was that I could watch them without shooting them. Because they had something to teach me first and they are now in the back of my truck and yes, I did say thank you to them as I did shoot them. Sometimes it is better to ask first then shoot not the other way around. I still take pride in my craftsman's ship. [/QUOTE]
