If you've ever heard somebody roll their r's with their tongue, try to duplicate that sound first with no call in your mouth. Same thing as fluttering your tongue, just trying to put it in different terms. Do it really loud and long without the call in your mouth until you can hold the roll and start to change the pitch and volume of it. Add the call and do the same thing, really loud and long until you get a loud steady purr. Now put the call in your mouth and try to slow it down and soften it to a realistic sounding purr by tightening your mouth and lips. I've seen the pros lean their head up slightly when purring for some reason. I guess it helps by changing the airway somehow. Takes a good bit of practice though. Took me about 4 years to get a good sounding purr. Listen to sound clips over and over and try to mimic it til you get it. Try different calls too, don't limit yourself to one type of diaphram. I find it easier to do with multiple reeded calls, but once you get the hang of it you'll be purring on any call you want. Keep at it, you'll get it.
