Extreme Dimensions Mini Phantom Digital Caller

[josephmrtn]

i bought one of these ( http://www.phantomcalls.com/Extreme-Dimension-Mini-Phantom-Series ) a year or two ago (i bought the mini-Gobbler model) and just this week bought this for it: http://www.pcsoutdoors.com/extremedimensionsminiphantomsoundstickpredator2.aspx

any reviews? im going to try it out sometime soon after i get it...

Hey Joe. I hate to burst your bubble but you can't use electronic calls during Spring turkey season in NY. Stick with a basic box call - or even a push-button box call. They both work great.

I have one, used it my first year predator hunting, called in a few fox with it. Like Deerthug said, cant use it for turkey.

yeah i know that now.... didnt back when i bought it tho... i actually called my biggest gobbler ever in part way with it... (BEFORE i knew it was illegal) and yes box is the way to go for turkey... i wanted opinions on using it for predators... LOL thanks for your concern anyhow

[Deerthug]

Just don't want to see any fellow hunters get in trouble. You never know who reads this forum . . .

It works ok for preds, but is way too quiet and doesnt do anything unless they are pretty close.

thanks Deerthug for your concern...

WNY what if i plug it into a loud speaker?

[josephmrtn]

well i got it today... cant wait for a tryout report....

[josephmrtn]

hmmm the call takes 3 aaa batteries but it dont seem to be working with the new set i put in... update later

[josephmrtn]

well i finally got it to work... took it out and tried calling in a coyote... no luck, might try again this eve

[josephmrtn]

tried it again this eve around 6:30 after dark... got some responses but they sounded about a mile away and never got any closer so i finally quit cause i was freezing...
