Re: pup in destress
No kiddin TA. I am glad Randy didn't charge me but it would have been worth it. I have been around alot of electronic callers but the WT is SWEET
. I had to have one. They are alittle bulky but at 3.7lbs not all that heavy.

I would rather have a slow hit than a fast miss...

Re: pup in destress
Personally i would have to say that a pup is somwhere in the neighborhood of birth till about 3-4 months old then they become young of the year until about january. After January in my opinion you shot a coyote. Thats just the way i look at it.

Re: pup in destress
The WT. is louder and more clearer than other brands. The recordings are of actual animals and not some sound produced and recorded by a hand call. Not everyone is a ace with a hand call so the next best thing is a WT. But there are also sounds on an electric call that a handcaller can't produce.. Its just another tool that does a good job of bringing them in and is louder than a hand call..
If coyotes are located 90% of the time you may get by with a hand call, but if you don't locate or want to cover some ground the WT is the way to do it.. quiet a few ADC guys also use it and the ones that don't proably rely more on the plane and snares.

Re: pup in destress
I think there is a little more to it than taking a rabbit and making him squeal and recording and calling it the real thing. Every rabbit, coyote, bird, etc. etc. has a slightly different sound to them just like humans do. So i highly doubt that a coyote is going to say hey thats the real thing i am going to come now!! As far as it being louder well it might get you one or two extra dogs on the season because of it, but i know i could buy/make a shitload of snares for 800 bucks and kill more coyotes with those snares than a WT will!! If you think it is a great tool than more power to you but i just don't see it as being a necessity. Just my 2 cents on the topic.

Re: pup in destress
after sept. it is a coyote. we aint't talk'n dogs here. The sound a milk tooth pup makes in distress is drastically different then anything you will here in the fall and winter out of the same pup. MOST of the sounds I have heard over the years that are being sold are not what they say they are. period. I have had several companies try to buy sounds from me, I am just here to tell you they are out to make a buck and would buy most anything and believe it is what ever you tell them. Slap a sticker on it and send it out the door. Most of these guys do not hunt and spend little to know time in the field. The stuff I here in real life situations rarely sounds like the tapes and digital sounds I have purchased over the years. You may hear the difference between individual coyotes but there is going to be little to no difference because one is 8 months and the other is 10 months. Now 6 weeks and 8 months there is a big difference. Does it make much difference if you are calling in any ol'coyote in the dead of winter? probably not. I would not use a coyote distress on a digital call to call in a coyote in the fur months anyways but on spring and summer work I will stick to the milk tooth pup distress and leave the digital coyote distress at home.
