Family and Friends: James Card’s Hot Pick is the ICOtec GC500 Electronic Game Caller

Predator hunting is fun and part of a good deer management plan.
Predator hunting is fun and part of a good deer management plan.

If you’re planning to do some predator hunting this summer or autumn, or maybe want to prepare for next year after deer season ends, then we recommend having an outstanding electronic call that can help you put more fur on the ground.

Check your state regulations about using e-calls, of course, but if you’re able to then take a gander at the ICOtec GC500 call. It’s a super predator hunting tool and one that James Card, editor of Trapper & Predator Caller magazine, recommends.

ICOtec GC500 predator call“This call holds a library of sounds,” Card said. “It comes with 24 pre-programed calls but can hold up to 200 more with no limit on call length. You can basically have an animal kingdom orchestra of yips, bleats, howls and honks right at your fingertips. You can also take one of your hand calls, run through your own custom calling sequence and record it for future use on the GC500.

“What is also nice is the 300-yard range remote control, which is great for those hunters who like to stay back from the caller in a concealed position or for hunters that play the wind and need to set up at a distance.”
