I was out last friday here in Minnesota and it was COLD the weather man said 20 to 25 belong windshield. Anyway I have been wanting to try to call coon in so I went and bought a tape the works in my Johnny Stewart E-caller. The tape was called coon fighting and on the package it said 3 nights calling 36 coon taken. well I had to try it. I went to a spot that I have seen the bandits in and found a decent hollowed out tree top. Well I put the speaker on the back side of the tree and sat on the side with the hole. I started the tape and about 2 min. a boar came out looking, and I was able to get a shot. Well I nomore then shot and another boar came out fast growling, and I shot him aswell. The the second raccoon was shoot with a bad 22 round and just got knocked out, becuase I picked him up and through him in the dog box. well when I got home I tried opening the box and I got alittle charged on me. He was full alive and NOT HAPPY. It was real fun trying to get him out of the dog box, so I had to get help from my Choc. lab Here are the pics In the Dog Box And after

Good job ! Nice pics ! Coon calling can be some fast action and they are usually very agressive comeing to that speaker.

jdp4202007 sorry for not getting back to you earlier, yah I did go out some and got a total of 6. No i took the when they came out of the dens in the trees. Here is the storie My son Dakota, got home from school and asked, dad you going out calling tonight, because I want to go with. I had to check the weather to make sure it was warm enough. Well at 27 degree's we got suited up and headed out. We made a couple of set ups, and had zero results. On our third set I let him pic the tree to set up on. He got to set up the call and were we needed to sit, I let him do it all. He started the E-Caller and in about 1 min a nice big male came out of his den tree, and being that my little guy set us up, he got to shoot first. Dakota squeeze the trigger and down it fell, rite after he shoot another coon came out of the den and he handed gun to me and said dad you shoot that one, and I did. We made 2 more sets before night came, and killed one more. When we got home I know he killed a big one, I grabbed the scale and it weighed 31.lbs., and he was so happy, and I was very proud of him.
