The whole reed assembly (wood, plastic reed, and rubber band) tends to fall out. I put it back in, but I can't get it back in tight enough without potentiallyseparating the corregated rubber tube from the rest of the call. This happened after falling out of a tree. Before that I never had a problem. The call still sounds fine, but I'd hate to find out that the wooden plug came loose just when I need it most. I'm going to keep that one as a spare and use my new one this season.

Exactly as RIStrutStopper says, the whole inside assembly has fallen out of 3 of mine and I stopped buying them. The wood reed freezes up easily too. I'm not knocking them, they are a great sounding call and I've used them with success...I'm just tired of not relying on them. I absolutely adore and have tremendous success with the Deer Flute, more user friend, same sound.

Mine seems really well built, but I havent put it through a whole lot yet. I am just wanting something that may help me get a doe in the early part of season. I also heard the can will work for does, but like i said my cousin is a die hard true talker fan and was really talking them up for calling does in early season.

I like my true talker
