Sound File

As far as my preferred style, I try my hardest to have a clean front and raspy backend with a little thump in it. I have dedicated much time since my original post to learn the trumpet, part of that has been listening to as many real hens as possible. My ears have evolved more than my skill, if that makes sense.

I prefer this style of calling also!!! All rasp with no thump in it just doesn't sound correct to my ear. I have one of your sound files Terry that sounds absolutely like a live hen and probably the best trumpet playing that I have ever heard.

I've talked to an old turkey man who has hunted with Rev. Zach. He said you can hear a distinct breaker in the yelp when you are at a little distance from Mr. Zach's calling.

I am guessing when you are talking about the thump or lack of thump you are referring to front end to back end breakover.

Yes, that is what I am referring to. I was specifically talking about me in reference to Ranger's question. That "thump" or roll over is something I try to incorporate into my calling.

Terry, will you post a soundfile? What call maker made the call you prefer?

EZ your calls are spot on as well. I played them in Nashville last feb. For a wingbone they ran very similar to a trumpet. Bones are for sure hard to get consistent due to varying diameters. I think you have mastered that.
