    I don't have that problem. The item is available, but the $$$ eh, that's a problem, even with the 15% discount. Having shot 2 of them, its hard to not wonder where i can scrap the $$ up. .

    Only about 50' on the Bluetooth connectivity. Had to set the phone out in the field as well. Not able to change calls or adjust volume during the hunt.

    I was a little late getting out and set up this morning. Yote activity was winding down by the time I got speaker and phone set up.

    Did not get any critters to head towards call but the last two in the area seemed to hesitate and want to investigate but ended up clearing out to their hideout.

    Will keep messing with it as time allows.

    Different calls and locations.

    Maybe dig up threads TR has posted his exploits in to see if any useful tidbits.

    May be too close to house and outbuildings to call them in during daylight.

    Just glassed the area and "the pack" has grouped together again at the hideout. Too bad they are almost impossible to sneak up on.

    A guy could get in close enough to take shots 500yds or even a little less but the location relationship of hideout to surrounding properties and residences really closes up alot of shooting lanes. Would have to get position just right without alerting pack.

    Many neighbors have justifiably gotten more sensitive about folks shooting nearby the last few years as the area has "filled" in a little with mostly idiots.

    50' is disappointing, but sounds about right. I was hoping with no blocking structures and a little elevation I could get to 100 yards, but that sounds like a no go.
