Legal /ethical delemna

I need some input from fellow board members. In Alberta, the hunting regs. prohibit the use of recorded calls and electronic callers.
We are permitted to use electronic collars for dog training.[please note the spelling of callers/collars.]Yesterday I had my 13 year old son try my rabbit call. He is a natural. The sound I have been trying for. Beautiful music. If we hadn't been in the truck ,driving down the highway, I would have prepared myself for the coyote stampede. So I was thinking about putting the kid with the call about 100yds. from me and fitting my tritronics collar on him. Then when I needed him to call, I could just hit the button. I think the initial yipe would only add realism to the process.He's a pretty good kid so I would only use the lowest level of stimulation. ["Encore" are you reading this?] My son thinks the whole thing is unethical. I think it could be the first step toward a bionic caller. Opinions please? Redfrog

i LIKE IT!!!!

Awesome!

i've used or had used on me such devices for...... other reasons. The pain is not too bad, especially when tempered with some form of cloth.
 
Heck Redfrog, you may just decide to leave that collar on him permanently. That is, if you get the desired response from activating it. Might work good for training him in other areas of his life too

Just Kidding there
 
Be sure to dunk him in skunk pee before puting him on stand. Don't want your collered caller to get winded by that coyote stampede.
 
Guys, I gotta tell you, my son doesn't think much of the suggestions so far but his sister and I think they're great. Redfrog

Cast.N.Blast. I tried that and I tried explaining how exciting it would be when the coyotes come charging in all up close and personal like.My plan seems to be working, he says he would love to go but he has to stay home and clean his room.Redfrog

A drunk buddy of mine put an electronic dog collar on his leg one time on a dare. After he hit it (it made his leg shoot straight out and dropped him like a rock) his brother and another friend of mine took it away from him and had their own fun with it before Wayne could get it off. The fight that took place about an hour later was pretty good too. I think Wayne would have had a better chance if he had been a little steadier on his feet.hehehe
 
RedFrog- Tell your son its a chick magnet.
On the other hand, you may want to keep it on him so if he "takes a liking" to an unfavorable girl, zap him....hormone deterrent.
 
Will probably work great until he grows up and kicks your a$$.........
