So my buddy just got a prairie blaster

I have to go pick it up (I referenced this in another post, but it automatically died

So anyway as I will have this in my truck for a couple days before I make my trip back to his place I have free run with it. I was wondering what sounds out of the standard selection had worked well for anyone or calling sequence. I am totally virgin to this so lets here the best advice you have to throw. I have read what I can on other subject lines, but I didn't figure it would hurt to ask for more and how toos...

Thanks in advance.
 
Here are some of the Foxpro Regular Sounds that I use and have had good luck with.

184- Coyote Male Challenge 4
210- Coyote Death Cry
290- Lucky Bird
332- Screamin Blue Jay Distress
233- Jackrabbit Distress
354- DSG Cottontail Distress
247- Prairie Dog Distress
 
Thank you very much for your reply.

So here is what I am planning to do. I will be hunting mostly open areas with a patch of trees here and a slough there and oh yeah a ton of snow everywhere (2-3 feet). I am going to try and set up in a cross wind putting the caller in between myself and the cover that I am guessing the yotes will be in (with my smell blowing down but away from the cover so the yotes have to come out to circle down wind).

Throw the rabbit distress on for 5 minutes consecutively wait 5 and then hit a challenge howl for a bit then wait then??? I'm done?

Forget the howls. Get it playing some rabbit distress sounds about half volume. Just sit somewhere and don't be making much movement. Give it 15 to 30 minutes and then you can probably consider yourself done. lol

Go to a different place at least a quarter to a half mile away and do it all over again. Don't kill em all in one day. You'll need something to do the next day.
 
I'll be traveling about 150 miles from my home. I have oodles of acres of ground to hunt up there. Probably in the neighborhood of 15,000 (the comma is in the right spot...lol). So I will see what damage can be done.
 
As you can tell by me bringing this back to the top I have yet to hit success. I tried mixing up the calls and running only the distress sounds and nothing. I am not complaining as I know this happens to a lot of people and I have maybe made 20 stands. The snow is deep and I suppose that is causing me to make a little more noise than I would like too.

Here is my next set of questions.
Can someone give me a call sequence in a timed manner? Meaning call for 2 minutes quiet for 2 etc. for how long? a half hour this time of year?

Then tell me how to set up in the wind if you wouldn't mind what works best for you, and what direction you enter from. Any help would be much appreciated.
