Default RE: Teach me to use calls

OK,I'll try to help.To make it easier to explain we'll make the notes drawin the striker towards you.Rough up the surface of your call,with scotch bright or sandpaper.The rougher the better.Hold the striker like a pencil at about the same angle but with the big end of the striker pointin away from you.Now make little counter clockwise circles but don't lift the striker from the call(it won't make any sound on the back stroke)this should give you yelps.To cluck hold the striker the same way with a lil more downward pressure then flick your wrist just like strikin a match.To purr,with a lil less pressure just drag the striker across the call in a straight line.It's alot easier to show someone than to try to type it but this should get ya started makin the basic notes.Once you get this down ,let me know and we'll move on to the next step.Let's work with one call at a time.Good Luck
