Default RE: mouth call question

bassfisherman711, I might be able to help with some words for you say on your diaphram.

Yelp- say "cholk,cholk,cholk". Might have to adjust the pressure of your tongue on the reeds to get the right sound. Series of 4 to 9 notes.

Cluck- say "plock" with your lips pressed kind of tight to each other before you say "plock. Usually just one sharp note.

Cackle- say "kit,kit,cat,cat,cat,cholk,cholk,cholk".

Purr-( Most difficult to learn) flutter your tongue over the reed . Adjust tongue pressure to get the sound you are looking for. This sound is very short and soft. Hen is content and happy.

The yelp and cluck is probably the 2 most important calls to make. As you get good at those you can work on the cackles and purrs. As mentioned eariler, go to nwtf.org and listen to the turkey vocalizations. Also will give you an idea of the cadence, which is important also. I can also recommend a couple of calls that I use and are very user friendly. The Primos Deadly Double and the Primos Boss Hogg. Hope this helps you and have fun. Practice, practice, practice. Good luck.
