6mmBR Posted April 18, 2008 Report Share Posted April 18, 2008 For foxes, chicken distress is excellent along with the jack rabbbit distress and squall. Also the dying crow is good on foxes and crows. Cheers Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kip270 Posted April 19, 2008 Report Share Posted April 19, 2008 It is illegal to use an electronic call for Deer/Crows etc in the UK, but legal for FOX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shootingbags Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 Londonhunter, I have a sound library of over 200 sounds and for fox I have used the Pheasant in distress , jackrabbit , Screamin Rabbit , Fox cus ( works very well this time of year ) , Vixen scream amongst others to very good effect on the foxes. There are about a dozen different crow sounds. As for the deer, there are quite a few but they are mainly for the north American species ( there are a few fawn 'bleats' which I am sure would work over here though ). The advantage that the Foxpro has though is that you can put your own calls onto it. Basically any sound that you can get onto your computer, whether it be from the internet or off a cd, you can transfer onto the caller. The FX3 can hold 32 sounds with each sound being up to 8 minutes long . The FX5 or Scorpion can hold 200 sounds ! If you require any further info, drop me a line.
