Hey Flinter, as far as the lynx go, there's a pale tone common that's super easy to mistake for grey, which is what you got. The actual grey variant is pretty easy to recognize once you know what to look for: it almost looks a bit greenish, with the "sideburns" and collar around the shoulder standing out firmly as much whiter than the rest of the coat. When you see that contrast between the light parts and the dark, you've got yourself a grey. Also, I'm pretty sure the E-caller acts as a distraction for all affected species. I once tried calling in a bobcat with the predator caller, it saw me prone at like 40m and spooked. But I regularly bring bobcats, lynx and puma to 10m without camouflage and they never notice me so long as I'm prone and the E-Caller is active. They'll smell me at more like 6m, but it's your own fault if you let them get that close. The trick is to not move an inch once the E-caller goes on. Before you turn it on, set yourself up so you can see at least 10m along any path the lynx might use to approach you. So long as you do not move, you can allow them that close and have plenty of time to take them. Obviously more distance is better, but that's the minimum you need. I also prefer the .17 HMR or Tenpoint (if I'm feeling bold) for them. If your render distance is at 320 you can hear them meow from farther away than you can ID calls, but if you're lucky enough to be in an area with a lot of cats, the retort of that .357 will scare the rest away. The .17 will probably scare off any other cats that are coming into your call, but it beats scaring everything within 320m. The crossbow is riskier, but I find it's actually quite an effective choice for consecutive kills on cats: because they're so much more visual than deer, when using a bow there's a fairly high risk that they'll alert to the noise then spot you crouched and spook. Even though the crossbow is much louder, because you aren't forced into a crouch until you choose to, you can sneak under that high alert phase and reload it once they start walking again. I got my grey lynx after a few tries, but that roe deer was the one that held me up. I've done a few less focused hunts on Hirschfelden and Hemmeldal hoping to bag one while dealing with the pheasant count or other objectives, but when that didn't work it came down to four hours of grinding the Val De Bois river today. I finally got on the track of a heavy male-who passed through all of the areas I'd just been to shortly after I left-who wound up scoring 216. The wildest part is that his score was that good with only three coronets. I figure his main beam and existing coronets must be near-max in order to have a score that good with a whole missing coronet. Anywho, great video, and good luck after those cats!
Hey Flinter, internet struggs are rough. Thanks for the Classic video today. Looking forward to tomorrow's stream. Hope you were able to get the lynx .
Nice vid m8, I've got them all on the first try, even the elk, but the roe deer was my brick wall, took me around 30 males to get it, at some point I was about to ask some friends to help me or just quit but I got it in the end on Hirschfelden.
Hey Flinter I'm a big fan, awesome to see you back at work, I'm also a big fan of your COTW throphy lodge tours and parque and verhonga hunts have a great day sir. You're awesome
Went out and hunted south white heart to get my whitetail objective, managed it and bag myself a 404 scoring Roosevelt elk hiding in the south west corner
Apologies for the schedule change and video delay! Here's hoping the interwebs actually work tomorrow!
No worries…Monday…Tuesday…doesn’t matter. We are here😂🙌🏻
Hey flinter, I just got a big horns diamond cape Buffalo thanks to some videos of yours

Ive only played classic here and there but your classic videos are my favorite on your channel.
