Riflehunter Report post Posted March 28, 2019 I bought a fox pro fusion for $500 2 months before they dropped the pricing to $400 but I've been very happy with it. The only thing I hate is pulling a battery out of the remote every time I carry it in my pack so it doesn't turn on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThomC Report post Posted March 28, 2019 Why does it matter how good the sound is? A rabbit in the grip of a predator is not going to have pear shaped tones. The burnham bros. invented the call when they noticed that coyotes came running to the sound of their squeaky wagon wheel. 😏 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This horn style is much clearer and louder.

twigsnapper Report post Posted March 29, 2019 I would also look into a lucky duck, I don’t do a ton of calling but a few guys that I know that call a ton use them instead of fox pro. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CatfishKev Report post Posted March 29, 2019 The battery pack looks interesting. Wasnt sure how that worked. The fusion I saw was all double A's. Lucky duck was the other one they had. Think it was $200. I saw they had a couple vids on youtube as well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CouesPursuit Report post Posted March 29, 2019 FoxPro here because of the features, some absolutely help me kill extra coyotes. FoxBang is extremely useful when a shot rings out and a new, screaming, preset call is automatically activated. I have had many coyotes come sprinting in right after watching their partner get shot, instead of bugging out, and all I have to focus on is the crosshairs or bead on the next one. I will use FoxFusion to naturally blend transitions from one call to the next or just throw in a second sound here and there without screwing anything up or losing any existing interest. The FoxMotion and FoxPitch make the overused and overrated sounds (Lightning Jack) come to life again as well. I've convinced a lot of hung up coyotes to get in for a shot using the above. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
