I do like it, it is alot quieter than my barrel call. I pm'd shootum about it and he said I could talk to the designer for tips at Hooks, but haven't gotten around to it yet. It works on backpressure as opposed to just the wind like the barrel call. I think it will make alot more authentic sounds once I learn to use it properly. It didn't come with any instruction which would have been nice. That being said, last year when I walked on to state land, I thought there must have been 10 other hunters where I was blowing on their calls, but they were real birds and no gobbles at them, probably because there was too much noise. I haven't had any luck at getting gobbles from any locator call on state land. I think I told it before, but the only gobbles I've gotten while hunting state land were 20 yards off the land on private property, ha.
Im going lighter this year...
Couple of Woodhaven diaphragms and can't wait to try Dan's diaphragms.
Ceramic over glass, ebony/tiger maple laminate that I made.
Probably going to make an aluminum over slate for myself as well..
Purpleheart striker that I made and use in competitions
Colorwood striker that I made and use in competitions
Corian/arrow shaft striker that I made to be waterproof
SS Custom Calls purpleheart/cedar box call
Hooks Harrison Hootin Stick
MAD Cherry Crow Call
Thats it..
Too many mouth calls to remember the names. I carry 6 different mouth calls on me. 2 box calls, and a pot.
Good chance that there will be Hooks Hoot n Stick to add to the mix Monday. A guy at work is going to the convention and said he would pick me one up. :z-guntootsmiley: :z-guntootsmiley: :z-guntootsmiley:
I may try to get one of the hoot-n-sticks if I can find one and there affordable.
