Has Anyone Tried This Johnny Stewart Caller? Made By Hunters Specialities

Hey, I wonder if I can hook that J.S. caller up to my Minaska speaker amp and get some good noise out of it? Is there a place to plug an external speaker into the unit?
 
Yep, Str8 Shooter... GS has advised us that there making an additional booster for it, coming some time next year! I can't WAIT...!

I got my FIRST DOUBLE /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif this morning! Had the Attractor with me, but conditions didn't allow for it's use. The JS Cottontail brought them running in within a few seconds. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif From pushing PLAY, to dropping the second dog was under (way under) two minutes!

Happy Hunting!
 
I have bought one of these. I also was wondering if it was to quiet. the sound of the calls sounds great. Did notice that every time I played it my neighbors dog would go off he is about 300 yrds away. I also own a nomad remote call. The nomad is alot louder but i don't think it sounds as good. First time i used the nomad called in 2 coyotes before the second 75 second sequince was over. One seen me move and other never gave me clear shot. To let you know I only do this with my bow. Die hard archer. I do belive I got lucky and set up real close to the yotes, so I think other call would of worked. Like H.S call be for size and how it sounds, plus sometimes the remote would stop working on the nomad and would have to shut it off and turn it back on to get it to work agian.
 
Well, I think this says that it'll work

That's my FIRST coyote!! The attractor brought it in with the jackrabbit and then the fawn bawl.

I got the Preadtor 2 version first and like it enough that I bought the Predator 1 version. I can't wait until the amplifier that works with it comes out!

The first one I bought didn't seem to want to work right. The remote didn't work out past about 10 yds. I replaced the batteries in the main unit and it's worked fine since. A big hearty THANKS to those at HS and Jonny Stewart calls for this little unit.

I've been using it to start out a stand with and then I go to mouth calls to give more range and then I can use this once they get closer.

One question tho - Why did they put that lil light where it shines out the direction the speaker is facing? I know its green and SHOULDn't scare anything off, but if they'd have put it in back of the speaker, it wouldn't be visible to a predator coming in.
 
well i first bought the attractor I now just bought the attactor II love that they have five different sounds each. the cotton tail sound on one sound like older rabbit and more like baby rabbit on other plus , baby bird, rodent, jack rabbit, woodpecker, howl, coyote pup, and pup yips, fawn now to call something in. tomorrow morning
 
Just saw this call at Walmart yesterday,on sale,for $21.00.Paid $35.00 for mine in Sept..I thought it was a good deal at $35.00. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grinning-smiley-003.gif
 
I used one of these yesterday morning (puppy cries and rodent distress) along with a couple quick sessions on a primos raspy coaxer. Called a red fox within 30yds in about 25 min. I had just finished glassing the open area to my east and north when I looked down the jeep trail (sw) towards the pinion tree I had set the call in. There was a nice mature red standing on the jeep trail right next to the tree with my caller. Unfortunately his attention was directed at me.
 
There is a lesson to be learned in these posts if one just listens. It does not take that much volume to call in coyotes and foxes, especially if you use the wind instead of fighting it. We should all remember that if you can hear the sound at 50 yds, a coyote can most likely hear it at 1000 yds, as his hearing is at least 20 times better than a human's. Everybody goes by what they can hear, and that really doesn't have anything to do with what the coyote can hear. If you have a caller that shows you the volume you are operating at, and you can trust it, it doesn't matter if you can hear it or not, just so Wylie hears it. If it sounds like it is weak and dying, he will come a with a lot more gusto. This is going to remain a point of "Discussion" as long as there are predator callers, but just ask yourself how many times you have heard workers hundreds of yards away, talking while working on a roof for instance, when the wind was either coming directly from them or quartering from them? Then ask yourself how well you could hear them if the wind was blowing from you to them. If you can set up where your human scent is not going to where the coyotes are, but the sound is at low to moderate volume, you will call more in to see and shoot. You'll call some in with high volume too facing the caller into the wind, but they will usually circle wide making it more likely they will be at long range and hard to stop, and you'll spook as many as you call in, but you don't see the ones you spook. Some of the guys believe the coyote can't distinguish between different levels of volume, but that is horse hockey; he makes a living knowing all about his domain. I have seen Tal Lockwood and Dan Thompson call them in from well over a mile with a mouth call, so why does anyone think an ecaller has to be able to break out windows? In the big majority of cases, what is natural sounding is best. I forgot three major words, "In my opinion".
 
Mr.Prather, In my opinion you are right. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif I wonder if some folks aren't as successful with E-callers because they run them too loud?
