Hunting Calls

Foxpro Digital Calls: Electronic Predator Calling

Foxpro's Prowler, Hellcat, and Hellcat Pro digital callers play recorded predator and prey distress sounds through a remote-controlled speaker, letting hunters call in coyotes and other predators without the skill investment traditional mouth calls require. The Hellcat Pro's TX1000 transmitter offers longer remote range than the standard TX433 transmitter shared by the Prowler and base Hellcat, useful for hunters calling into more open terrain.

Turkey Calls: Mouth, Friction, and Combo Options

Primos and Woodhaven both offer diaphragm (mouth) calls like the Freak and Red Scorpion, which take practice but leave hands free for the gun or bow, alongside friction calls like the Buck Roar II pot-and-striker style call. The Bone Collector Lucky Lady combo pack bundles multiple call types together, a practical way for newer turkey hunters to try different styles before committing to one.

Duck and Goose Calls: Rolling Thunder and Power Calls

Rolling Thunder's Two Stroke double-reed calls and duck whistle cover core duck-calling needs, while Power Calls' Ion open call is built specifically for Canada goose vocalizations. For a deeper dive into duck and goose calling specifically, see our dedicated Echo Calls and Avian-X buying guides — both brands anchor a significant part of the waterfowl calling market.

Choosing a Call for Your Target Species

Predator hunters going after coyotes are best served by a Foxpro digital caller, which handles the sound reproduction without requiring hand-calling skill. Turkey hunters should start with a double-reed or friction call for easier learning, moving to a single-reed diaphragm call as skill builds. Waterfowl hunters should match their call type (single vs. double reed) to their experience level, same as with any duck or goose call.

Frequently Asked Questions: Hunting Calls

Are electronic predator calls legal?
Legality varies by state and species — always check your state's regulations on electronic calling devices before using a Foxpro or similar digital caller for predator hunting.

Should a beginner turkey hunter use a mouth call or friction call?
Friction calls (like the Buck Roar II) are generally easier for beginners to learn, while mouth/diaphragm calls take more practice but leave your hands free for the gun or bow once mastered.

What's the difference between the Foxpro Hellcat and Hellcat Pro?
The Hellcat Pro uses a TX1000 transmitter for longer remote range, while the base Hellcat and Prowler share the shorter-range TX433 transmitter.
