Byron, I have your Coming to the Call video, waiting for the 2d.
I posted a message about using a fox decoy for calling coyotes. Have you ever used one? I am looking for a foldup or photo image (Montana Decoy) type. If you know of any or anyone using one please let me know.

I haven't used them in the field yet, but a decoy company just sent me a package of decoys like you descrided. Their from Renzo's brilliatly simple decoys. The predator kit consist of a coyote, fawn, and two floppy eared rabbits. When I got them out my first impression was it looked kinda hoky. I put the decoy out in my front yard and called my dog that was in the back yard. She hates coyotes. she is very intellegent and I thought if it fools her it should fool a coyote. She came running around the house, and immediately saw the decoy. Her hair raised up, and she started growling and aproaching the decoy. when she couldn't get a responce from it she headed downwind and realized she had been had, gave me a go to hell look and went back to the back yard. I have not used it in the field yet but I think they should work. The fox should work even better as they are non threatning to coyotes or bobcats.
I was thinking of using the coyote decoy facing a moving rabbit decoy. It could work as a confidence builder and also make for some great video footage.
If you try one let us know how it works.
Good Hunting
Byron

Byron & Bob, I forgot to let you know about those decoys. They said they haven't made fox decoys but will in the near future. I'll post if I get to try one.
