Hey! Thanks for breaking this down for a beginner like me. I found mouth calls difficult to use. Your tips will help me along the way! Thank you so much!
I’ve never used a turkey call but because of your video I put it in my mouth and made perfect calls first try , I went from how tf do I use this to full confidence in literally 60 seconds hahaha thank you
546people Me too. I got my spring gobbler with my pot call this spring, it came with a reed and I never opened it until right now. Man it was funny just now trying the reed while watching this video. Glad he mentioned about it tickling LOL!
Not a turkey hunter (yet) but they're all over the area I live in . I bought a 3 pack of diaphram calls on the discount rack for $5 and I have struggled trying to make any sounds come out of any of them . After watching this video I was making sounds with all three . My Grandson was quite amused at my yelping attempts and had me laughing too . You are a great teacher and explain the techniques involved better than any other video I watched . Thank You so much .
Hell yea. Try to ride him first before you blast his ass. Gator is great eating. Bet a raptor is even better. Do a tutorial on how you got a raptor sound. Hey how do you know what a raptor sounds like? How does anyone really?
Thank you for this! I got the chirp on the second air blow! FYI to new people, 1) soften up the tape with saliva until it bends a little in your mouth, then press it to the roof. 2) Once you have it situated and you try to blow out air, it will feel like something is blocking the exhale. That's when you know you have it positioned right. Give a harder burst of air and it'll make the sound!!!
I know this is an older video, but just wanted to say thanks. I see a hundred videos, saying "make this sound". Then the dude makes the call and I have no idea how I am supposed to be putting the call in my mouth. Best true beginner video on RU-vid.
I just want to thank you for making this video. I finally got some proficiency after watching this video. I almost gave up out of frustration and have been using a slate call for years. Thank you for getting me even more excited for this season !!!!
I think I saw the cut that you were using. The number of reeds and the cut will make a difference for a beginner. Maybe do a video on the different cuts and what they do?
@@tinysupreme6417 you can try but make sure they are wet enough as well...leave them in the side of your mouth for a few minutes and then try it...your tongue might not be in the right spot as well so try moving it around before you trim it
@@jeepfamoverland Damn... I'm having a hard time not pressing my tongue on the bottom side of the call. I think the roof of my mouth might be too narrow for mouth calls. It's only about as wide as my thumb and the frame of the call can't quite sit evenly up there.
Been a Turkey hunter for a long time and have always used slate/pot calls bc I could never get the mouth call to work. Watched this video and I was able to make the first sound, going to take a good bit of practice, but this will be so much easier once mastered for those hyper aware Gobblers. Not to mention the hens that spot you as you’re going for you’re slate call and start clucking letting every other Turkey know that something isn’t quite right around there and your hunt is over.
Watched several how to videos & just got frustrated. I mean the damn call did nothing but give me the mouth sweats. But then I watched yours & I don't know why, but everything just kind of came together. And hot damn I got noise! It was ugly, yeah, but it was something. So now I guess I'll subscribe & get you to teach me how to sound something like a turkey. I've got to tell you, I'm really kind of excited about this mouth call business!
Many professional Turkey hunters use push and pull it will be the best Yelp you'll get or even the box call 100%. Some will use the push and pull first then the box call. Drop your ego and you'll shoot a Tom 100%. If you can mouth call do it but being in the feild isn't the time to practice. Like he said in the video high end low end very important many guys use the wrong Yelp usually an assembly Yelp or even a tom/Jake's Yelp.
i sound like a dying rabbit with a mouth call. I'm tired of picking up and dropping my pot calls and being out of position when they come in. I'm gonna learn if it kills me!
What's the best turkey call to buy? I can't find any at Walmart and there's so many to choose from on Amazon. Plus they're expensive. I have one but I can't find it. Need to buy more. Plus they're just fun to use!
Thanks for the video I know it's an older one but informative. Pretty sure it'll help me out I want to perfect using mouth calls of all types. So long reed always up no matter what type of call whether turkey or elk right?
Yo when’s the advanced version? I need some tips on how to make some sounds. I can do yelps cackles and purrs. But there’s some other sounds I can’t get.
I've tried them in the past couldn't get a sound to save my life. Today I decide to get another one to go with my son. Having the same trouble as years before and 10 minutes before writing this post I get sound Yeah Baby LOL. Read on a forum that said try to say the word CHUCK and bam got sound. Just wished I would have tried harder in my earlier years to use it.
I had hoped the product I got would have a little instruction manual... Ah well, good folks like you exist. Now to play gag on the front porch. I am not certain still where in my mouth the various pieces are supposed to rest, or if it's supposed to be releatively flat to the top of my mouth, or can be angled some.
@@JTCalls I ordered them a few weeks ago, been playing with them. I truly love them even though i'm still practicing and sucking at it! lol. I own a small shop as I emailed you about, my buddy wanted to buy them thinking they were BRAND new lol. I should have sold them haha! Told him to go to your website and get some!
It’s a bitch getting those calls at 1:00 in the morning. I get more after I put my number on the do not call list than I did before. Good video I’m going for the first time in the morning, I’ve been eying 9 gobblers the past month. Hopefully one will show up.
Is it suppose to actually be pressed the way to the roof of my mouth? Mine call seems to wide to reach the top because it presses agaisnt my gums around my teeth
Just bought a turkey call at bass pro off the impulse rack. Just because I used to get those bird calls at the iowa state fair decades ago. But after seeing you do this call, which sounds great by the way. Well, there used to be a wild turkey that hung around the neighborhood that chased people that walked down the street. And since its been gone, for whatever reason. 🤷 More homeless have been walking down the street. So, my idea is to use this call and throw some corn out, to get a flock to call this neighborhood home. Rather have turkeys strutting around, than homeless peering around. Thanx for making my neighborhood safer. Liberals might think "how dare you"....but a turkey I can use it for security plus the feathers it drops for fletching and the poop for compost. I can't do anything with a mumbling homeless person. 🤷 Sorry, jist kint think of nothing .....
I just turned 17 and my older brother always takes me because he can call extremely good. I actually killed one yesterday because he called it in, but I just ordered the call he uses on Amazon. How long do you think it will take me before I’m somewhat good at it?
Fuck this shit I give up …lmao I’ve tried a d practice on this type of diaphragm call and as much as I try to use the back of my tongue it keeps tickling my front and I only get a few chirps thanks for the video though 🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃 good luck this season
