Shawn,Yes the AP-6 is a sceery call . I set up on high ground when possible. Not at the top , but about 1/3 of the way down . Dont put the caller behind you . I did that once , and will never do it again . I had a coyote come in and go right to the caller , then run over me on the way out!!!AS far as waiting on the pups , thats your option , I have found if you use the pup in distress 90 percent of the time , a male is the one to come in . How about it guys ? have you had the same kind of reaction??Also , hunt the draws, They are good spots . Most of the time i call a draw i call up a coyote . be patient , and i would highly recomend you learn how to use a howeler . If you can beg borrow or steal a copy of randy andersons video . get it , and mimic his howelin technique . it will up your numbers . there are several good howelers out ther . My favorites are the critter call mini ( not a howeler but i use it for one) , the critter call standard , Sceery howeler , but it is very adult sounding and very loud . And on and on . get a howeler and learn how to use it . Just today a friend and i howeled in 5 coyotes . useing the pup in distress, and greeting howeles . Its a great trick to learn to use . hope this helps . Later Jerry .

Thanks for the tip Jerry I am currently working on the hand calls now. I will look for this Ap-6 what brand is it sceery? I am also scouting for coyote stand areas. When setting up a stand should I set up in higher ground or low ground such as toward the top of a ridge or at the base? I would like to set the fox-pro at a higher elevation for better louder sound but thats near impossible without getting the bark of death. I would like to go try a few places but I am holding out for the pups to leave on there own.
Thanks
Shawn
