Convergent Hunting Solutions has introduced the Bullet HP predator-calling kit, featuring a Bluetooth electronic game call, a Picatinny phone mount that is perfect for use on AR-platform rifles, a full sound library and a camouflage carry bag. Created by professional predator hunters Byron South and Stephen Skaggs, Convergent game calls are American-tested and American made. Convergent's flagship electronic call, the Bullet HP allows hunters to pair a smartphone with the call up to 300 feet away. Unlike older calls, which use megaphone-style speakers, the Bullet HP features a conical design, which Convergent promises will yield better sound quality no matter the environment. The call is Android and Apple compatible, allowing for complete control of the unit via five different sound apps, including predator, deer, hog, turkey, crow and snow goose. The 2.9 lb. unit is powered by an integrated Li-ION battery with over 10 hours of run time. Easy to carry, the Bullet HP features a built-in decoy and ground spike, and even doubles as a Bluetooth speaker for your favorite music. For more information, check out convergenthunting.com.

If you’re fortunate enough to fill your tag, the real work starts.
