Digital Game Callers

Started thinking about getting one for coyote hunting. Only one I've seen is the Foxpro but I'm sure there are others.

I'd like to hear from anyone using callers on brands, pros/cons or whatever.

Hey Joed, I found a Flextone online yesterday, in fact I started a thread here asking but got no responses yet. Look at Wildlife callers site, also go to Predator masters forums. I would like a foxpro too, but they cost more than I want to spend right now. The Flextone Echo ER1 is the model I am looking at, remote control and 100 sounds for about $120 I think it is a deal, read a few reviews but it is fairly new. Good luck, I am just trying to get into coyotes and crows myself. Mac

Check out http://varmintal.com/ for ideas on making your own and free mp3 downloads of different call sequences and animal in distress calls. Using his basic design, i made an electronic call using my mp3 player, a $15 pyle loudspeaker from amazon, and a $15 mini amplifier from radioshack. I havent had a chance to try it out in the field yet, but using his calling sequences it is very loud and clear, and there are lots of testimonials on his site from others who have tried his design. It may not be exactly what you are looking for, I'm just throwing an alternative out there that may be less expensive.

I just got a foxpro FX3 and love it but the remote doesnt work, and is discontinued?? i think i'm going to go with the cheaper foxpro and put my saved $100 into a scope light.

Thanks guys. I tried Varmint Al's calls on an ipod with amp but have had no luck. That's why I was thinking of getting the Foxpro. Maybe the problem with mine is the speaker range even though it's loud enough.

I borrowed a Foxpro from one of my friends, and the thing works great... my problem was having "hunters" that couldn't keep their mouths shut long enough for the coyotes to come to the call. This one had the remote, and it worked fine, as long as the batteries were good in it.
