I am older and want to get started in coyote and coon calling. Not looking to sell the furs nor measure my success by the overall amount of fur I get, but mainly I just want to spend more time in the woods. That said, I do want to be successful to some degree over time and will likely keep some of the fur to have made into a blanket, line a coat, etc. I live in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, which is really forested. I will be doing my calling after deer season. I suspect much of my success during that time of year will be cedar swamps, and river bottoms.
I am at the point in life where I am attracted to simpler things rather than more complex, and am considering using hand/mouth calls instead of an e-caller. What would you recommend for a few callers to keep it simple and yet be effective enough to call in coyotes and coon? I suspect I will hunt them separately, so I am not against having a couple of calls for each species.
I'd appreciate your thoughts.
Thanks much.
