Title: Carrying diaphragm calls in the field (call caddy)?
Post by: Marc on May 04, 2014, 07:14:22 PM
I like to carry a bunch of calls when I am hunting, and I like something accessible that is easy to organize...

I had a call caddy with 5 pouches that I lost, and have since gone to the only other one I know which is H.S. Strut (which only has 4 pockets):

Always around my neck and accessible...  Not that I should, but I am stuffing two calls into the same pouch.

Do any of you boys have any little tips on carrying your diaphragm calls so that they are readily accessible?  Anyone else make a similar if not larger call caddy than H.S. Strut?

I use an old Grizzly chew can with 1/8" holes drilled in the lid.

The chew can would be a good idea...  I quit chewing, and I think that might drive me crazy...

Here is another call caddy that looks like it might be interesting from Primos:

The Hook Hunter™ Mouth Call Case is a versatile way to store up to 8 mouth calls. You can wear it around your neck or strap it to your leg for easy access. Comes in Mossy Oak™ Break-Up Infinity camo pattern.

I take a chew can, then cut a small piece of sponge to fit in the bottom soak that sponge in a little no dye/no alcohol mouth wash. Keeps the calls clean and fresh. Reeds wont stick together, call wont taste like yesterdays coffee I've used all types of call cases. I can two cans with 3 calls each

I use to use one of those little neck wallets. Now, I just fold up a napkin and stick it in the plastic shell the calls come in and put one call on each side. I only carry two calls, though. All I can remember how to run properly.

I keep one in my mouth basically all the time. The few others that I take are in mesh pockets on my vest.

I have the h s strut one like you, four calls are plenty for me. I'd be careful about keeping your calls moist all the time, I've been told by some call makers that's not good for the latex.

I keep 1 or 2 calls in my wallet year round and move my wallet to a front chest pocket on my shirt when I setup on a bird.

I use what I refer to as a coin case, the flat rubber type with the slit in it . You mash it from both ends to open. Calls do not rattle.

I've used the Primos for years.  The old style, one pocket that holds at least 7 or 8 calls around my neck.

I would like a call wallet that had pockets made of expanded nylon (like the Primos Hook Hunter above) that were large enough to hold the plastic jewel cases with the calls inside.

My favorite is a Quaker Boy call holder. It holds 10 calls. I also a three of the Primos call pouches. I think I can get 5-7 in them them. I also have one of the HS Strut holders. My daughter was using it. I also have a HS Skoal Can too. I carry a lot of mouth calls. But I only used four or five this past year. I carry a lot on back ups of my favorite calls.

15-20 year old plastic Skoal can.......... no holes.

Holds 8 or 10 calls.  About every other or every 3rd nite I cover the calls in blue mint mouthwash and dump it off in the morning before I stick the can in the chest pocket of my bibs.

Primos no-lose call pouch.  Been carrying one since 1986.  The metal wore our and broke 2 years ago and I bought another.  Never lost it so its named correctly.
