virgil Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 The author says to 'call sparingly'. How frequently does that mean to you all- every 5 minutes, 10? 20? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Nicky Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 The author says to 'call sparingly'. How frequently does that mean to you all- every 5 minutes, 10? 20? Once or twice before flydown, VERY softly. Then every 20 minutes, if you sense them coming, step it up a little. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
virgil Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 OK, thanks for the advice. I'm heading up tomorrow night for the weekend. Appreciate the help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeeBugg Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Yeah I've been doing the sparingly deal. Had a hen walk up 3 ft from me the other day. Never heard or saw her until she broke a branch behind me. Wish she was draggin a tom with her...or a jake for that matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
