I have been playing with the "Convergent Hog Calling APP" along with "iHunt Ultimate Game call and Bluetooth Speaker" since last year with no real sucess.
I don't use it every hunt and probably average 1 out of 4 hunts using it.
I got in a little tripod stand close to a big creek bottom this morning at 4:30, fresh tall cutover all behind me in thinned pines, looks like a jungle with six foot tall weeds.
Right after it got light enough to see I used my phone to play "Hog Hysteria" on the speaker which was about 25 yards in front of me towards the creek. I let it play for about 4 minutes and I heard a big one coming down the hill behind me and he was not happy.
He was grunting and huffing and popping his teeth. I could hear him behind me (down wind) but I could not see him. He sounded huge and had to be within 15 yards or so. Then another one to my left started grunting too and he sounded like he was almost at my stand but I could nopt see him in the tall vegatation and I could not see him moving either. They moved around me for probably 10 minutes grunting the whole time but never let me see them and probably got a whiff of me and took off.
It was kind of exciting and I will use the call more often now to see if I can make it happen.
