i am crossposting this from the bear hunting forum.

you ever use predator calls to get your bear? im getting desperate...lol. with the huge acorn drop this year it has stopped and slowed most baits to a near standstill in my area.

i have only had my baits hit about 7 times since season opened on sept 7th.

ive been hunting my butt off and varying the baits im hunting over so i dont over hunt one bait. my season expires oct 11th.....so i need to do something

i read this. is this accurate or just a sales tool for selling calls?
