I discovered this tactic one night trying to call in a coyote in a freshly cut corn field. I parked in the corn field in a part of the field that had a lot of big water oaks around the edges. I put on Fox Pro on the hood of the truck and got ready to shoot a coyote. What happened next was a complete surprise. I started with a coyote distress call and start watching with the handheld thermal. As soon as I started the call, I noticed the trees filled up with raccoons. It seems the raccoons are really afraid of mad/fighting coyotes and get off of the ground as fast as they can.
I started trying it near feeders after that. I would drive within 100-200 yards of a feeder that I knew had a bunch of raccoons hitting it and would get the caller out and play it. Wait a couple minutes and ride into the area where the feeder is located and simply look up in the trees around the feeder. You can remove a bunch of raccoons in a short period. A thermal scope helps but it is not mandatory. A good flash light will show you most of them.
Hope this tip helps. Save them turkeys!

I might have to try that --- you would do this after the season as to not mess up deer, correct?

Got my cheap caller in from Amazon. The 23a battery is the same as the Duracell 21/23 they sell at cvs and other places btw.
I bought the Icotec furnado for 90.00

Thats interesting
I got something i want to try also. Guy i know traps for $$ - he exceptional trapper! He caught 56 a few weekends ago mostly with wild man hammer time coon bait. Hammer time Guy is on face book - but i not. Plan to buy some hammer time as soon as i can
Trapper told me something else. He hates doing it but delivers a lot. He puts sardine in dp and puts solo cup over dp. Coon thinks it trash and removes cup and gets fish
He also showed me a dirt hole set with turkey feathers around it - looked awesome - said great for cats but catches all
Hunt the wind - leave it better than you found it - love your neighbor as you love your self
