    Anyone have much luck with using the FoxPro game calls? We've started using it for all gator hunts. What do you use it for?

    We haven't used them on coons yet but planning on videoing it when we do. If it turns out good, I'll post the link on here.

    They are awesome calls. No better system out there if you ask me. We use them for coyotes, crows, and sometimes turkey.

    I have an older 416B ..great call, close to $400 when I purchased. These calls are high and I'm not going to say their worth it, but I have no complaints with my call. There weren't very many options when I was bought my 416..I think there's a lot of electronic callers now for 200 or less. I know a few guys that have the fx3 and fx5 and one guy that has the furyII but wow!! They're pricey

    When I shipped my old FoxPro FX5 back to the company cuz it stopped working, I wasn’t sure what to expect. I didn’t call first, I just shipped it to em with a note telling them the darn thing won’t work with batteries anymore (works fine when plugged in) and that the remote had steadily lost signal power and would only work (sometimes) if I was within 35 yards. A few days after I shipped it, I received an email from FoxPro acknowledging arrival of my unit at their plant…no other comments.

    Today, a week later the unit was returned with a note on the invoice stating they had replaced the battery pack (had a corrosion issue) and also replaced the transmitter module with an updated version in the remote. The amount shown on the invoice was $0.00.

    I am rarely surprised anymore, especially in a positive way and I must admit that FoxPro’s superior customer care and eagerness to stand behind their product greatly exceeded my expectations. I never imagined free repair and shipping. It never entered my mind. I am writing this because anyone considering a game caller needs to know what kind of company they are purchasing from…and because FoxPro earned this review. This is a stellar company! My advice? Buy a FoxPro. They won’t letcha down.
