I've got a small mouth. So where is a good place to get a small frame call. I've tried some of the youth calls and they seem kind of cheap. I'm not trying to learn how to use a call,or just make a yelp. I want one the same Quality of a larger frame. Also is there a difference in a small versus a youth frame?  Thanks

Gooserbat has two small frame calls in the main line, the Jr Bacon and the Young Gun.  Sam take the same care in making those as the standard frame calls.

He also has a couple other "recipes" for small frame calls that he builds as customs.  Check out www.gooserbatcalls.com, the phone number on the home page is is cell phone, he can help you out.

There are other good call makers on here that probably have them, too.

Good luck!

This year I purchased a couple of Zink calls, a three-pack of Woodhaven's, and some standard Gooserbat calls... 

Comparing the size of the tape, the standard Gooserbat's calls are considerably smaller than those mentioned, and they are also smaller than HS Strutt, or Primos calls (from the previous season I had)...

I just did some business with Gooserbat, and he was very pleasant to deal with...  If you make a purchase, I might consider buying one standard and one junior frame call to see which one works best for you.
Did I do that?

The frames on the mouth calls from Hook's all tend to be smaller. Once I got used to the smaller frame of them, I prefer them. I can get different tones and rasp by positioning them differently in my mouth and they still seal. Doesn't require a lot of air to get them going, unlike other manufacturers, which allows for much quieter calling when that is called for.

I second what FullChoke has noted. Hook' Persuader is a small frame and very easy call to use.

Hooks can make them anyway you like. Just call Scott and tell him what you need.
