I'm interested in calling coyotes. Ive hunted deer and birds, but never predators. Ive considered buying an ecaller but would rather learn to hand call first. Ive read lots of threads and there are so many calls to choose from, I dont know where to begin. What do I need to get started? Can someone please give me a list of some good beginners calls. I live in southern Nevada and will do most calling in that area. Thanks in advance.
 
You could start by getting a Howler,open reed call and closed reed call.For a closed reed call get a Circe or something like that.You can get a Crit R call Magnum for your howler and get a Crit R call standard for an open reed call.Most importantly get an information tape on how to use them.
 
I guess it depends on how much you want to spend as an initial investment. I have made some pretty decent calls with two pop-cycle sticks, a rubber band, and some electrical tape. Learn to use the lip squeak method, that's free. One thing I wouldn't go without is a howler. I like the ones Rich Cronk sells. His killer calls are sort of all around calls. They make distress sounds, pup yips, and howls. I guess to answer your question, if I was to start all over again, I would buy the Cronk Killer Call to begin with.
 
Thanks for all the info and fast replies eveyone. I love this site!! I'll be ordering as soon as I can figure out how to do it without my wife bustin' me. Christmas present to myself.
 
Hi Guys,
I just went to AP and ordered some stuff. I ordered a Crit R call standard, Sceery Western Predator Kit, and the Calling All Coyotes 2 DVD. Now I will have a couple videos and a couple calls to get started. I also plan on ordering a howler from Mr. Cronk. Thats enough to get me started right?
Thanks everyone for your help.
 
Thats all you will need plus endless days out in the field.You will learn from your mistakes and you will also get some coyotes.Good luck and good choices on your calls.
 
Im my opinion with the CritR-call, Cronk Howler, & Randy Anderson DVD you saved years of trial & error. You got the best of everything & now will be set to hunt. Tell us about the first one.
