Who all carries a call specifically for soft calling situations? I'm considering picking up a call for tree talk and finishing and would love some recommendations and to hear how you guys handle the soft calling situations.

Roger parks makes a very good one.

I use the same Gooserbat diaphragm for everything from zero to obnoxious.

Yeah, one of the signs of a good call or caller is the ability to play soft or loud without compromising sound quality. So you can do it with any of your calls. But there are some made for the task. I think Watkins makes or made one.

Generally, hard to beat a slate pot and a soft wood striker for that job.

Don't go this year where youtubers went last year.

Lynch Jet Slate when movement isn't an issue, if not a mouth call.

A trumpet can do it all.

I agree.  I use a trumpet for ALL my soft morning tree talk stuff.
No trees were hurt in the sending of this message, however a large number of electrons were highly inconvenienced.
