Am I a Freq ?

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I don't know I have 30 days to find out.As of late the only coyotes we have gotten have been mostly by accident. Random dogs walking by or lip squeaked when we have been hunting deer.
We have 3 "good" calls we use them a lot, and have called in a lot of coyotes. I was saving for a call or a thermal vision scope. Any mid-range scope is 3 grand to start and I would have to hunt at night, I hate hunting at night, especially in the winter. so I ordered a Freq call.

	It will be interesting to see how it works. Do you think coyotes are getting wise to calls? Years ago my "raspy rabbit" mouth call was my go to call. Now, it seems like it takes an electronic call to get anything to come in.
	I have always considered myself to be quite the bullshitter, But ocasionally it is nice to sit back and listen to a true professional......So, Carry on.

	We never use any kind of rabbit call on the callers because of the reason you said. We will mix in some hand calls sometimes. They get used to a lot of calls for sure. I think a big problem is people Play too loud or don't stay long enough and the coyotes see them leave, a BIG problem is they don't get the coyotes killed and they learn when they hear the call that someone is going to shoot at them. SO yes I'm hoping for stuff they have not heard.

	That's my thought too. I kinda think that once a coyote "busts" a hunter that perticular coyote will never come in to a call. I'm not sure if they tell their friends but it seems like they do.

	Here is an update. We had a glitch and returned twice. They "fixed it and we tried it HARD 140 + sets all over the state different kinds of weather and times of day and night. NOTHING ! We sent it back for a refund. Today I herd back. This is what they say. Kristopher, I sent a text to Frug just asking about my refund. They have been in the shot show but will get right on it. They also sent this back to me. We were not the only ones not getting good results. 3 other units were sent back with the same reason, not the glitch but no coyotes responding. There may be a problem with them putting un wanted sounds. Read what they said. FYI…We have 3 other calls like yours now where successful hunters couldn’t really get anywhere with them. We are going to send 2 of them to the best coyote hunter we know and see what his results are. The other 2 will go to a sound specialist in Northern California that was involved in the original prototype testing to see if they are possibly putting out unwanted noise. We are determined to make sure we find out either outcome instead of just shrugging it off. With your permission I’ll keep you posted ? There may be a problem.

	It sounds like they have decent customer service. That being said, Refunds never seem to be a priority. The concept is interesting. Their web site says that people can hear some of the sounds. What did it sound like? Did it sound like a normal call?

	seems like a cheery refund offer should have been made. Especially, since they acknowledge others are also complaining. Seems their product isn't either fully designed or perfected. You should not have to 'fund' their product development. Hopefully, you have in on a c-card with some recourse.

	I like the idea of something new since it seems like coyotes are getting wise to the normal calls but maybe this one needs a little more perfecting.

	They credited my card back in full. I'll be very interested if they come out with an improved unit.

	Well dam We it must have been the call. We went north of Tiber calling. -10 all day not as much snow up there very light NE wind we were using the boys foxpro shock wave. It was hard to see, couldn't tell the ground from the sky. First set we had one come in from Way out, but he saw the truck and would not budge over 400 yards. I gave it a try and dam I killed it. To far to go get pics. We had dogs answer at every set the boy got a shot 350 ish and he killed it to but there again two big brake away, and crunchy snow so no pics. We saw 6 others . We did get 3 pistol cotton tails. 2.5 hours driving time each way. But we did prove there is still coyotes around.

	Same, passive / location coyote sounds for about 7 min, then pup sounds for about 7 min, then some very aggressive coyote sounds, that all depends on what there doing. each set last 20/25 min.

	That's awesome. It's good to hear they are still out there. One thing to be careful about. If you take Bear with you he has been known to totally wipe out a prairie dog town. He might kill off all the coyotes in Montana.

	Last year Bear and I tried to take the entire town down. We gave up, hoping to leave a few to restock the target pipe line. He didn't have his favorite 222 he was shooting the GD's Grendel. I do think he could have cleaned out out but I convinced him there were other town that NEEDED work.

	Next time I'm going to blindfold him on the way there and back and only let him bring 50 rounds of ammo.
