How do you contact absentee home owners?

I've been driving for dollars and finding vacant properties. Thats the good part, the bad part is nobody except the whacadoo's leaving me angry voicemails MF'in me telling me they are not selling are contacting me. The letter I send is simple, to the point, friendly and professional. Had several people review my letter and nobody sees any problems with it.

So why am I not getting any phone calls from ANYONE wanting to sell their vacant homes? I send the letters in a bright pink envelope and hand write the address, so I know they have to see it and will most likely open it. Should I not even bother with the letters and just cold call the absentee homeowner?

I know its a numbers game but I've sent out over 200 letters and only get the angry homeowner who doesn't want to sell and calls me names and swears at me.

What am I doing wrong?
