I am always amazed by the advancement of technology and what can be done, so mentioning that fact; I am introducing a new mobile App from iHUNT by RUGER, that I have had the privilege to use and entertain myself (plus the crew at work) with the new App from iHUNT by RUGER.   The App is free to load and some of the features are free.

Home Screen, easy to navigate through. Have fun!

The iHUNT by RUGER App is primarily a game call device that you can use with all IOS and Android mobile devices.

It has a number of other superb features such as Solunar Times for hunting, Weather, Compass, Ruger Handguns-Ruger Long Guns (Opens in your search engine), you can shop for Ruger products (Opens in your search engine) , Activity Log and a Place for User photos (Photos that are upload from all users).

Setup the speaker away from you have the game or varmint come in closer!
iHUNT by RUGER Bluetooth speaker that gets an amazing 50 + yards and 110dB of power. The speaker automatically unlocks the App when you connect it to your phone.

As for Hunting Calls (they need to be purchased) the list is so long, it almost unbelievable.

Alright I will give you the list, not the full content of the calls within the within the call!   Alligators-Crocs, Bears, Birds, Bobcats, Buffalo-Bison, Chickens, Chipmunks, Cows, Coyotes, Crows-Ravens, Deer, Donkeys, Ducks, Elk, Foxes, Geese, Goats, Hawks-Eagles, Jackal, Mice-Rats, Moose, Owls, Pheasants, Prairie Dogs, Quail, Rabbit-Hare, Raccoon, Sheep-Lambs, Snipe Birds, Squirrels, Turkeys, Wild Boar-Pigs, Wildebeest and Zebra.   Quite the list to have!  Not that we are going to use them all, but to know the sounds is amazing.

Just listen to the sampler sounds:   

Top = Crow Distress  Middle = Fallow Buck  Bottom = Tom Gobble
Touch the Hunting calls and it goes to this screen to choose.

Besides being able to use iHUNT by RUGER in the field, it is astonishing learning tool this App can be for the hunter to learn and understand the sounds that game animals, birds, and non-mammals make.   I would check with your State, Province or Country that you can use an electronic call for game you wish to pursue.  Quick and easy to use, it can also be used by children to randomly go through the long list.   Can you imagine sitting by a creek side with you daughter or son, even a grandchildren and have them tell you that is a Raccoon or the allusive Snipe making the noise you’re all are hearing.

Your pictures can be upload and you can see other's pictures and who they are.

There are a number of options items that you can also purchase to your game calling experience even better.

Entertain the experience and download the iHUNT by RUGER App to your mobile device and gain proficiency in the art of calling in game or knowing the calls of the wild.

RD Game Calls – Custom Made Game Calls

RD Game Calls – Built in the U.S.A.

Handcrafted on the banks of the Snake River in Idaho

RD Games Calls are to a duck hunter, goose hunter, varmint hunter and other hunting, like what an Orvis Split Bamboo rod is a an avid fly fisherman or fly fisher-person (that is hard to day).

I recently was selected to the Pro-Staff of RD Game Calls that are handcraft in Melba, Idaho.   I have only had a little to time to play with the Varmint Calls that I received, actually on Blacktail deer.  Interesting as I pull a couple of does into me from across a field.

These are the 2 calls I just got and played with on the way to the coast this past Sunday!

I have a place that the Coyotes are very weary to calling and I am sure this is because most like to use electronic calls.   I just happen to know the young fellow that has been hunting for them there and now has given up.  To be able to use a mouth call whether is a open reed style or a close reed call is far more effective in areas that the dogs have been worked over.  Such is the case on the property I hunt for Blacktail deer in the Willamette Valley outside of Oregon City, OR.

Have you ever hunted for ducks on one of the state refuges and you have the fellow in the next blind using a shaker call attempting to get ducks into the dekes.   Then you have the fellow on the other side of the lake who knows how to use a real call bringing the ducks in from long range to the decoys.

I am suggesting that all of you go to RD GAME CALLS and check out the woods available and the acrylics that are available on these custom built calls.  

This is not my picture, as it is a company picture. RD Game Calls for Youth! They are very involved with a youth program. Youth is the future for hunting!

I understand that REX is a master craftsmen that can tune a call to the way you want it.  Remember they are custom built, no two will be the same.   The next call though, not a duck, goose or varmint call is going to be a call that I can have in my mouth while bow hunting stop a big Blacktail buck in his tracks for split second with the call falling from my mouth and the arrow has been released to impact the chest cavity.

The dogs are out and we can't have them licking choppers on Lopes!

For those that buy a call from RD GAME CALLS and live in Oregon or willing to travel to Oregon to kill Coyotes in an area that the Coyotes have raise havoc on the Antelope – Pronghorns fawn,  I will give you that secret area to go and take them out.  It is near a place that has the word Well in it!  I might even have the GPS Coords for the serious hunters!
