Anything between 100 and 170 for most guys.  Depends on the caller, Ive seen guys run as much as 240.

One of my personal current interests is nest predators and how a majority of hunters, where legal bait to the extent of chumming coons.  However once they get the predators concentrated they don't control them.

Hi guys...brand new to this so excuse the simple questions...they are sincere and I thank all who are willing to help. The tension values you quote that is side tension correct? The back tension is a visual thing I suppose. So the higher the side tension value the higher the pitch of the call? Am I on the right track?
