A Cool Getaway From The Desert Heat, PVCI Novice Bootcamp

Posted August 12, 2010 By Marc Reindell and has no comments yet.

Our friends at Phoenix Varmint Callers club are holding a novice callers bootcamp in the cool pines of Payson, AZ this upcoming weekend, Saturday, August 14th at 9 am.

Rich Higgins, well known coyote behavior expert, and others will be conducting seminars and clinics on proper calling techniques for the beginning predator caller, but seasoned callers may be interested in attending as well.

Seminars will cover:

Proper set up
Firearm selection
Stand selection
Rules and Regs for predator hunting in AZ
Sounds used for calling and why
Use of ladders for calling in heavy brush

Directions to the bootcamp are as follows: Take 87 north through Payson and Strawberry. 6 or 7 miles past Clints Well, just past the Blue Ridge Ranger station, go east on FR 95. About a mile in take FR 513 to the left and follow it to the Boot Camp site. Signs will be posted as well to guide you to the site. Camping will be available for those that may want to head up Friday evening and stay for the weekend.

You may also want to attend: The AZ State Calling Contest that will be held at Cabela’s in Glendale, AZ on Saturday, August 28th at 3PM. Registration for the event begins at 10 AM and a seminar on Intro to Predator Calling will be held at 11 AM.

For more info on both events, contact Rich Higgins at 480-474-7581.

A good way to get out of the hot desert and get yourself geared up for the upcoming season!

Good hunting!

It’s Official! Electronic Calls Legal for Idaho Wolf Hunts.

Posted July 13, 2010 By Mark Healy and has 8 comments.

Idaho wildlife officials announced this past Wednesday evening that electronic game calls and trapping will be legal methods of take during their 2010 wolf hunting season.

With Idaho elk herds in a steady decline and no reasonable recovery in sight, the game commissioners found it a reasonable step to include electronic calls as a wolf hunting method to help reach 2010 wolf harvest objectives. Remember that any action favoring wolf hunting or wolf hunters will face immediate opposition and legal challenges from well funded anti-hunting organizations. We are, however, optimistic that Idaho’s wildlife managers will prevail in moving forward this need based, well documented, biologically sound, action plan for better wolf control in their state.

For more details and commentary, see the article in the Idaho Statesman: Electronic Calls Fair Game in Idaho Wolf Hunts

After taking dozens of phone calls last season from hunters very interested in calling an Idaho wolf (that’s you California hunters!) we’re looking forward to actually being able to deliver them a Wildlife Technologies Mighty Atom caller. Last season we had to turn ‘em down — not so this wolf season! (more…)

World Predator Hunting Expo is Open!

Posted March 19, 2010 By Mark Healy and has no comments yet.

At 2pm today (March 19, 2010) the Predator Expo opened to predator callers & hunters from all around Ohio and the Eastern US. We’re looking for outstanding products to bring our readers and there’s no shortage of them here. Many of the industry’s manufacturers and distributors came from all over the country to display their gear.

We’re in booth 415 on the main aisle showing off the Wildlife Technologies Mighty Atom MA-15 and MA-21 models, and The Gun Claw.

The DPMS Black Cat Express was parked inside the Expo with more than 50 rifles on display. DPMS sales rep Shane Cuperus and Brian Downs from The Predator Talkcast are looking at one of several .223 rifles in the rolling showroom.

The Predator Masters booth was just around the corner from the DPMS showroom. Barry Stewart and Matt McCauley were passing out literature and speaking with folks at the show.

The Deer and Turkey Expo is happening at the Ohio Expo center this same weekend, and we’re expecting the foot traffic in the Predator Expo to be great on Saturday and Sunday. If you have the opportunity to meet us at the show, we’re looking forward to seeing you.

Thank you again for reading,
