I LOVE the zink power maximus and the cheap version of the power clucker. the power clucker comes with a great dvd to help you get started. the basic honk is a low throaty note. a "ooh" sound followed by a quick rush of air that you cut off with your tongue. it sounds like youre saying "do-it!" into the call but you arent physically saying any words. saying words into your call is the biggest no-no of goose calling. good luck!
