Try this, hold the box in your left hand with your thumb keeping pressure on the open lid and with your other hand hit the handle of the lid against your thumb. Almost like you're clapping.

Shallow Rio, had a series of posts with pictures on how to make these calls. They might be helpful!

Clucking is a short stroke almost like a pop.......cutting is puting these short strokes together quickly.....

I hold my calls in my left hand paddle facing away from me.I then use my index finger and middle finger and place the paddle handle between each at the first finger knuckle joint.....I find it way eaiser to yelp, cluck, purr and then of course cutt! I also will move my left thumb up and down the side of the box to muffle or make the call louder.

All cutting really is fast clucking. Oh I practice while I listen to the NWTF Wild turkey voices CD as that has cutting on it and so does Lovett Williams real turkeys III.

Agreed. ShallowRio had several posts on how to do different calling techniques on a box call. Do a search on threads that he started and you should find them. They were very in-depth and had lots of good info!
