The Haydel's PC-84 Magnum Predator Cottontail Call is designed for the hunter who needs serious volume to command the landscape. Built with a larger internal chamber than standard calls, the "Magnum" configuration produces a deeper, more resonant, and significantly louder distress cry of a cottontail rabbit. This call is the perfect solution for hunting wide-open plains, expansive agricultural fields, or any terrain where you need your sound to carry over long distances to reach distant predators.
Engineered to handle high breath pressure, the PC-84 allows you to push for maximum volume without breaking the sound, keeping your distress sequence authentic and piercing. Despite its "Magnum" power, it remains remarkably easy to operate thanks to Haydel's signature open-reed system. If you have been struggling to get responses in large, windy areas or are looking to pull coyotes, bobcats, or foxes out of deep cover from further away, the PC-84 Magnum is the high-performance tool you need.
Why It Outperforms the Competition:
- Magnum Sound Projection: The oversized chamber provides unmatched volume and a deeper tone that cuts through wind and distance better than standard-sized calls.
- Authentic Cottontail Distress: Expertly tuned to mimic a full-bodied, frantic cottontail, triggering the hunting instincts of apex predators.
- High-Pressure Capability: Built to be blown hard; the PC-84 thrives when you push it for volume, making it ideal for the "big country" predator hunter.
- Haydel’s Reliability: Constructed to withstand the elements, ensuring consistent performance in the toughest hunting environments.

Haydel's PC-84 Magnum Cottontail FAQ
The PC-84 is designed for long-range work. The larger chamber allows for more air volume, creating a louder and deeper sound that travels significantly further than standard-sized calls, which is crucial for open-country hunting.
Start with aggressive, high-volume sequences to get the sound out into the terrain. Once you suspect a predator is moving toward you, slowly decrease the pressure to mimic a prey animal that is getting weaker and quieter.
Not necessarily. While it is built for volume, the open-reed design is very controllable. By using lighter breath pressure, you can easily modulate the volume for when a predator gets within close shooting range.
Yes. The heavy-duty housing is built to resist extreme temperature fluctuations. Keep it dry and clean, and it will perform just as well in the heat of early season as it does in the dead of winter.
