Messing around with the “Runted Rabbit”

Pre-Field report!… Getting closer to NY coyote season so lately I’ve been grabbing random hand calls to reacquaint myself after a few months off from calling. I just hammer away on my commute to and from work. This little Carver Runted Rabbit is going to get a workout this season. I’m figuring out some really cool stuff on it but it takes some finesse with the super thin reed. I’m working on tiny pup squeaks and yips which require just the tiniest amount of tooth pressure. At least the way I do it! Lol… I’m pretty heavy toothed on open reeds for coyote vocals so backing off is kinda new to me. Too much bite on this one and I think I’d need a pile of replacement reeds on hand! It’s super easy to get rabbit distress from, but I’m trying to get all I can out of it.

Mine hasn’t been field tested yet as I got it after the season ended, but I can tell this thing is going to be killer! If it isn’t hanging on your lanyard already, in my opinion you should consider putting one there!
 
Im glad your liking the call.. The more I use mine the more I love it.. The coyotes and cats really like it also LOL..

I did find some thinner Mylar I have been messing with and it is really showing some real potential..

Been a busy summer for me and I somehow missed your post, Mike. That’s pretty funny buddy, but I know what you’re saying. It certainly feels like that’s the case pretty often. But then in a blink of an eye it all changes. I live by the saying that even a blind squirrel finds a nut every once in awhile!

Thinner!?… holy cow.

It’s a really neat little call for sure. I’ve got nothing else remotely close to it and can’t wait for our coyote season to kick off. It’s going to get a workout for sure.
