Questions w/Primos

levelgrape · 02-28-2006, 09:19 AM

I was looking at two calls from primos but have no clue if a call of their nature is even something to spend the money on. First is their
"Real Wing Call"
http://www.primos.com/product_info.php?products_id=31
The second is their "Wingbone Yelper" http://www.primos.com/product_info.php?products_id=74

Has anyone used them before or not worth the money?

i have a wing and it really helps on hung up birds to add some realism to your calling it is also great to mimic a fight.

What do you mean you'll make a call...? What is a wing bone call for?

I was trying to find one of them in the local stores the cheapest I found was 14.99 but Primos sells them from the web-store for 4.99 what gives?

i'm not sure about the wing call but if you can bag a turkey you can make your own. i don't think it's necessary. i use the Freak slate call and like it a lot. very handy since it attaches to my leg so i use it to compensate for my inability to master a mouth call. primos also makes some good locater calls.

I use my real wing to simulate fly down and scratch in the leaves as for the wing bone JW has a good deal you send him a pair of wings he sends you a yelper back and keeps the other one i have sent him wings the last 2 years I used one of his yelpers on a gobbler last year he just could not resist

You may laugh, but I've seen a guy just use his hat to simulate a fly down; wasn't too bad. Doesn't sound drastically different than a wing and you always have your hat with you.

Dakota I have used my hat many a time also

I use my hat to simulate fly down. I have real wings (from a bird I shot) but I think my hat sounds better

Another trick is to get a piece of cloth like an old denim pant leg cut into a rectangle. Pull both ends tight, and the flapping sound it makes can immitate a bird stretching its wings on the roost or flying down.
