RE: The Freak
I haven't tried the Freak, but I did get the Panhandler by HS Strut this year. There is a thread on here that brought it to my attention and I found it a Walmart for under $10. The advantage of the Panhandler, is you can use any slate type call with it. It will adjust to fit the call and I haven't had any problems with it changing the tone of my calls. It is just like the Freak, except you can interchange the calls.
