A buddy and I have been trying to call one in since  Sept. with no luck. They are smart for sure! Hope to have better luck in Jan. -Feb.

If they are there and hear it they will come. If there is no response, they either don't hear it or aren't there. They are predator and are driven by filling their stomachs, plain and simple

They aren’t . The numbers don’t lie . 

They aren't ? Not sure what you mean? They are not killing too many or they are not reporting kills?

[Coyoteslayer]

I personally believe we arent killing too many. Is there a link available to view the statistics?

We've gotten a response a few times but no show

They're driven to fill their stomachs but they arent stupid lol. Learn from the times you've heard them. Were u up or downwind? Scent control? Could they have spotted you?  Was your location right? You're not going to walk in smoking a cigar hit the rabbit call and they come dancing out to be shot lol. Lessons can be learned from every hunt even an unsuccessful one.

I meant they aren't being called in .  Just during 6 day alone the clubs are shooting way more than are being reported . tomorrow  I will ask if I can share the exact harvest numbers for last year

I agree I've always suspected that many do not report them.
