Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

How to Predator Hunt Like a Pro | DC Predator
Q: How do you manage camera setup and communication during a stand with three shooters and a cameraman?
The camera is treated as the director on a film set, with pre-stand planning to position shooters for optimal lighting and sightlines. We use two-way headsets, establish roles (lead shooter, back shooter, camera operator), and coordinate movements so that at least one person is on the camera while others focus on calling and shooting.
How to Predator Hunt Like a Pro | DC Predator
Q: What is your go-to call sequence during February, and how do you adapt it to terrain and season?
We typically rely on prey distress sounds, usually rabbit calls, starting softly and ramping up over a few minutes. If nothing comes in, we switch to other sounds like rodent or bird calls, but the emphasis is on coordinating location, wind, cover, and timing to get coyotes to respond in a way that fits the camera angles and shot opportunities.
