Haydel's BC-85 Cottontail Distress FAQ
Use short, jerky bursts of air to mimic a struggling rabbit. Varying the volume and rhythm creates the illusion that the prey is fighting, which is key to holding a predator's interest.
Yes. Bobcats are highly responsive to high-pitched distress calls. A soft, continuous calling sequence often works best when you suspect a cat is in the immediate vicinity.
For long range, use more air pressure to increase volume. As a predator approaches, gradually decrease your volume to avoid spooking it with sound that is "too loud" once it is close.
The BC-85 is very stable. Keeping it inside an inner jacket pocket will help prevent any moisture in the reed from freezing, ensuring it remains ready for use on the coldest winter days.
