LOL coyotes don't have favorite calls! No such thing as a must have call either. The best advice is to get you a open reed call. Pick one in your price range and get to calling. Stick with distress sounds as you really can't mess them up and work on your howling at home or in your car not on stands. Primos are nice calls for starters because they come with DVD's you can watch. Closed reed calls tend to stick or freeze up when it gets cold out but are easier to use. I myself prefer the custom hand made calls.
Best advice when calling coyotes is to sit still! Since your just starting out watch your wind and watch your down wind side as coyotes usually try to circle down wind. If you know of anyone that lives close to you that calls see if you and your buddy can go once or twice with them. Take notes of every stand you make. Which way did the coyote come from, how did the coyote bust you! While calling is not hard to do it's also not as easy as sitting waiting for a deer to come walking by either. Go out and have fun and enjoy the time out is the most important thing and know that you will go through dry stands and you will not get a coyote everytime you go out.
Also just remember that if you buy a $700 ecaller does not mean you will kill more coyotes!
