What e-call wolud you recommend the FoxPro or Primos Power Dogg? When you begin calling is best to start low and increase the volume or does it make much of a difference?

I see some other newbies from the Carolinas on here too! I'm from Wingate, so anyone who needs a hunting partner, hit me up! Word of warning, I won't be able to teach you anything though, cause i don't know anything :D

The foxpro is a great product. I do not know any one who has any experience with the Primos line of ecallers.

Coyotehunter, you do know someone who has experience with the Power Dog. I've got one . Save your money and get a Foxpro. More sounds and more volume. I've set my power dog out their about a dozen times and didn't have any luck, but a dozen times probly isn't a good enough chance. Randy Anderson calls them in with one unless thats just movie magic. But still I'd get the foxpro if I had it to do over. What little I know about E-callers, you get what you pay for.

Thanks for all the information on the calls.
I learned over the weekend that this game can make you think the worst of your calling and hunting skills. I have killed many turkeys(back when we had them) over the years and always said that, if they could smell you may never kill one.Well, now here I am hunting something more difficult and it does'nt give any indication that it is even in the area, at least an ol' tom may gobble as walked away but, you knew there was one in the area. Now hunting these dogs, I feel lost!! Spent 8 hours in the field over the weekend and only saw the signs of dogs. Reading the comments fron you guys does help fight back the depression at least i know that it is part of the game.
I was asked what part of the Carolinas I am located in - Chester,S.C.
