Turkey Hunting Whether it's spring or fall doesn't matter to this bunch. Great tips on calling, bustin flocks, using blinds and more.

Default Primos "dome" mouth calls

Has anyone tried the Primos "dome" style mouth calls yet? I'm curious as to everyone's opinion on them. I bought several 2 weeks ago, tried a few of them, and they all sucked. Or I sucked, not sure which, but either way, it sounded more like I was trying to strangle a gobbler with concertina wire than call him in. I'm proficient with a normal latex mouth call, but I just can't seem to get the hang of this style. Hope it's just operator error...[:'(]. Thanks.

I've not tried them yet but was wondering what everybody thought of them.

no turkey call experience with them but i have the primo's triple dome elk bugle diaphragm and found that to be 10 times easieer to blow than the other ones i have. not sure if that's saying anything, but anyway.

I've tried them and don't particularly care for them. I can't get good sound from them. I personally think that they would be great for a beginner to learn the proper way to place/use a mouth call. For those of us who have been using a mouth call for a while I think we've already developed our own "habits" as far as placement, etc. and these calls are attempting to re-educate us.

I've got the v-cut one and it cuts well and purrs well, but the yelps sound rather strange.

I tried one about a year ago. I thought that itwas the worst diaphragm I had ever used. I emailedPrimos and got an attitude lacedresponse saying basically that I was the only one who didn't like it, but that they would replace it if I returned it to them. Well, with the cost of postage, I just trashed it, and, along with it, my business with Primos.

How do you purr on a mouth call, could never figure that out.
