Title: I got the scoop on this "haint"
Post by: Houndstooth Game Calls on February 02, 2012, 03:51:49 PM
All right I went to a store in demopolis AL Willinghams sporting goods. He says Lyle I ain't found know one that can blow this so he gave me one to take home! Now I blew one at this place a few weeks ago nothing. After bout 30 mins of toying with it I felt like I am decent on it. Now for $60 bucks in a call like this I expect acrylic. But any way check the clip you " haint" gonne beleive yo eyes. Also if you can't run a duck call in advanced air controll this might be a tough call very particular on it my gobbles a little raspier which is cool I like 2 inch spurs lmao!!

Lyle,
You sound better than the guys on their video more like those big chested Easterns we hunt in the timber.

That being said, I still think your tube gobble is more realistic. JMO

I think you sounded better on the duck call in the other thread.  But that Haint is not bad either.

Awesome! I agree your gobbles sound like a deep voiced old eastern gobbler. I do have one question. In their how to video the dnd guys stressed the point that you do not blow pressurized air into the haint, as you would with a duck call. In one video they even went so far as to say duck hunters would find this call harder to blow. But you made a comment that knowledge of advanced air control on a duck call helped you learn to blow the haint. So are you using free air, or pressurized air to blow the call?

I still would rather Gobble with a boxcall or tube...IMO...

@strutin reason why I say advanced air control you blow the at a fine line of squealing it out and it shutting the sound out it's more a free air blown call but you gotta control it going to the call. Kind like a person running a duck call getting a little whine in each note. It's definitely a call that's gonna take alot of trial and error the it's all in repetition. I don't run it quite like those guys but that's just like any call you find your way then roll with it. I think it sounds pretty good. I can't wait to see how knight hales new one sounds the hale fire.

Ok thanks for clarifying. I bought into the hype and ordered a haint two days ago, so we'll see if i can overcome the learning curve with it.

anyone know when KNight and Hale is going to release the Hale Fire?? i'd like to know their intended price

That sounds really good. It would fool me. But I still say a tube gooble sounds better. The speed or something is too fast.

talked to the Knight and Hale guys today at the Eastern Sports Show about the Hale fire call

first its 19.99 a much more friendly price point for a gobble call

rather than blowing like a machine gun its designed for the tooka tooka tooka that many many use to gobble on mouth calls.. slows the cadence down, not quiet as raspy or edgy as the haint though. not sure if one is better than the other but id like to get a chance to run both maybe even the flextone one before season.

they will be for sale later this month so he only had his which I didnt want to my mouth all over but he told me when I go back next sunday   he'd have one set aside for me

I'll report back after I get my hands on it and post a video
