I have been using mouth calls for quite some time for predator hunting, and have been thinking of getting an electronic type of call. I've been researching different models and am leaning towards getting a FoxPro banshee model.

Just wondering if anyone has one, and if so how has it been working out for you? I understand that you can get different calls programmed into it that fit your needs v.s. getting something with many calls already programmed.

Any info would be appreciated!


Thanks!

N.B

Most fox pros come with quite a few sounds. Mine came with 100 and I can choose another 50 for free. I bought the FX7 from bass pro at Christmas for2 bills. If you get one I suggest you buy the decoy. When a coyote sees the decoy it's game over, as long as you can do your part!

Several serious callers around me are switching to lucky duck callers
They are tired of replaceing callers every year or 2
Mostly remote failure in colder weather

I have the Hammerjack from Fox Pro I'm very happy with it. I bought some really good rechargeable batteries for it and they will last all day in the caller.

love my FoxPro, it has assisting in killing a lot of fur, crows, and snows. They have excellent customer service too.

I have had a FoxPro Shockwave for a few years now and it has been a good caller.
Make sure to buy from a place that lets you pick out what sounds you want programmed on it. That way you don't get a bunch of stuff you don't want and will never use.

You can go to FoxPro's website and listen to clips of their sounds to help you decide which ones you want.

I have been using my FoxPro FX5 for 10 years now just took it down recently because it wasn't holding a charge. They fixed it while I waited. All it needed was a new battery holder, $5 and they put new batteries in it $20 never had any problems with my remote at all!

I have a FX3 and only had to replace the battery holder and the remote broke but that was my fault. Can't go wrong with a FoxPro.
