FOXPRO, Inc. - The True Leader in Digital Game Calls.


 

We are pleased to present the FOXPRO Custom Shop. Over the years, FOXPRO has designed a number of special callers, speakers, and decoys for various government agencies, professional and recreational hunters upon special request. We have also assembled a number of prototype units to prove conceptual ideas that have never been revealed to the general public.

The following pictures are a small sample of the products that we have made in the past for customers or for conceptual purposes. These items are shown to give you an idea of our willingness to think "outside the box" and to show some of our capabilities. If you have a special caller in mind, give us a call, we may be able to bring your dream caller to life.

Check back frequently as we will be adding more pictures soon.

  

Circa 1993

This little unassuming transistor radio...we mean game call...is very important in the history of FOXPRO. It was one of our first attempts to make a small game call. This one played one sound...a gray fox pup. It had one control, volume. This was built in an old transistor radio housing. It used the cone speaker that came with the radio. It is shown with the TX-200 to show its relative size.

 

  

Circa 1995

This 15 sound "talker" was designed for people with speech handicaps. This was designed to store 15 phrases to help these individuals communicate with people that could not understand sign language. These phrases could be recorded and changed at will utilizing the internal microphone. This could also easily store animal sounds. It used an off the shelf keypad and the same enclosure as the TX5-LR and TX-200 remote controls.

  

Circa Spring/Summer 1996

This small pocket game call has four sounds, volume control, external speaker jack, and four LED's to let you know which sound you are playing. It had removable sound cards and if you look closely, you will see the name Penntek which stood for Pennsylvania Technology. Penntek was a predecessor of FOXPRO Inc. It is shown with the new "mini" for size comparison.

 

Circa 1996

The image above shows a small shirt pocket wildlife caller. It has four sounds, volume control and an external speaker jack. This is the same size housing as the current TX5-LR and TX200 remote controls.


Circa October 1996

The image above shows an amplified remote speaker.

 

Circa 2000

This little trap bait caller made a great bird sound, but at that time it was found to be too cost prohibitive to manufacture for that market. We may have to take another look at this product.

 

Circa 2001

This non-remote power amp was designed to be used with external audio sources such as a CD player, cassette player, etc. It features an on/off volume control, audio input jack, external speaker jack, pilot light, and runs on four 'AA' batteries.

 

Circa 2003 - 2004

This Adapt-A-Call was designed as a remote controlled amplifier. It runs on four 'AA' batteries, has a decoy jack, pilot lamp, audio input jack and a speaker jack. It used a transmitter very similar to that of the modern AR4.

 

    

Circa Spring 2004

The pictures above show a sample of various motors that we have evaluated for our product line. The PVC bird decoy was one of our first attempts at creating a motorized decoy before the Jack-in-the-Box. Lack of a place to store the decoy topper was a disadvantage of this design. We are still looking at manufacturing smaller decoys.

 

  

Circa Late 2004 - Early 2005

The decoy shown above also has a model 416LR game caller inside and also has a cone speaker. We were very busy working on the new FX3 during the time and this conceptual product was put on the back-burner for a later date.

Circa Spring 2005

This conceptual 416 bird version was designed for government owl studies. They wanted a lightweight caller that could reproduce owl sounds.

We also made a more popular version using the same enclosure as the bird caller above. For this external speaker version we ported the enclosure to make a phenomonal owl speaker that could be used with their existing 48, 416, and 532 model game calls.

 

Circa Spring 2006

Shortly after evaluating the speaker that would become the SP-FR1, we were toying with the idea of a caller based on that speaker flush-mounted in an ammo-box and the FX3 electronics. We are considering the marketability of a similar unit.

 

Circa Spring 2006

We received a request from a prestigious southern university to design a game calling system that could control up to 32 FX3's individually with one TX-5LR remote. We were able to successfully accomplish this task.

Update (Spring 2007): We successfully updated their calling system to work with one TX200.

 


Circa Fall 2006

This prototype "Call Box" was designed as the result of many requests by various government agencies. This unit was in the field for a ten month field trial. The features include: ability to change sounds, start delay, user adjustable play time, user adjustable play wait time, user adjustable initial delay timer, and day/night or night only operation. This caller would run for days and days without changing or charging the batteries. Because of this successful field study and ongoing requests for this type of product, we will most likely produce this unit and add a few features including day only operation, USB port, charge jack, solar charger, etc.

 

  

Circa Summer 2007

Here is a version of the "mini" that features a decoy and ten 'AA' batteries. Again, there is no place to store the topper. This products fate is yet to be determined. Perhaps a 2D top will be considered and a nice carry pouch to store it all in.

Various Large Game Callers

Here are five examples of large game callers that we have made.

The first one on the left will be released at a later date. We are not ready to release any more details at this point.

The second caller is a caller based on the SP-108. We did not like this form factor. Here is a second image showing a side view of this caller:

The third caller can be read about earlier on this page.

The fourth caller is the Prairie Blaster. This caller has great form factor, flush-mounted SP-55, and a 4" cone speaker. This unit will be avaialble for late October delivery and will sell for $699 with the TX-200 remote control, 100 sounds and many of the same features as the new Scorpion model X1-A. More details to follow.


Preliminary photos - more to follow.

The last caller is for existing Snow-Crow-Pro (both SC3 and SC5 version) owners. We can convert your Snow-Crow-Pro to be an SCP+ portable unit with no external speakers to carry along. Price of the upgrade is $119. This upgrade also includes two switches to turn the internal speakers on or off. This unit can also be ordered new from the factory for:

* $649 SC3+ with NEW internal speakers and no external SP-108SC speakers
* $799 SC3+ with NEW internal speakers and 2 external SP-108SC speakers
* $849 SC5+ with NEW internal speakers and no external SP-108SC speakers
* $999 SC5+ with NEW internal speakers and 2 external SP-108SC speakers

Deluxe Snow-Crow-Pro

Here is another version of the Snow-Crow-Pro that features two internal SP-55 speakers, selector switches to turn the internal speakers off, and four external speaker jacks that can accomodate four SP-108SC speakers. The Deluxe Snow-Crow-Pro has all the same great features as the SC5 including the TX-200 remote control, 1GB of internal memory that allows storage of up to 200 sounds, USB port, and more! With both SP-55 attached and a 8Ah battery it weighs in at about 13.5lbs.


Various Speakers
Here are a number of different compression drivers and tweeters that we have been evaluating. 





"Mr. Mister"
Circa Summer 2008 - Spring 2009

Mr. Mister is a remote controlled electronic scent dispenser. This could be used for a wide variety of hunting applications from deer to predator; the possibilities are endless! The images above show the original bottle before and after being painted. There is a built in charge jack for using rechargeable batteries and the unit quickly connects to the AUX jack on your FOXPRO game call or can be used as a stand-alone device. Check out the short video clip below to see it in action.
