Thats about the only way you can lure one of these elusive animals out of the woods. Being now that they closed the dogs on them. Your chances of seeing one hiking through the woods are way to small because they hear and smell so good. Granted I have see my fare share when I am out and about. But as always, it is out of season, or just to far away or too quick footed. So I am going out this weekend with a friend and we are going to break the distress call out and see if we bag ourselves a kitty. But if nothing else we are bound to have a few songdogs slink in to our trickery. Either wayyour burning powder, good luck to you.

I have not really tried for cats, but I have had great success with bears. I prefer a rabbit call that I can really "bellar" with, but the last two I killed came to a cow call. The last one I called, came in to my squeaking and sucking noises that I made on my hand. Got it to within 50 yards. I didn't have my rifle, only a camera.
