Update on Mouth Call Purring

[MouthCaller]

I've had a mouth call in my mouth for what seems like a week straight and I've almost got it down. I spent a lot of time practicing and the lip flutter seems to work best for me. I'm still not as good as I'd like to be but you can see what progress I've made. Videos are less than a minute and big up's to Joe for the awesome tutorial video!!! 

This is about 5-6 days ago I was using a different mouth call not sure the brand I have so many but I think it is a Lannom game calls call.

This is today with a Hooks Imitator.

This is the video that helped me out the most.

Hey bud, I think you've just about got it - nice calling, man!  A quick suggestion - try & make the purr just a tad bit softer.  When you listen to a real hen, typically her purrs are much softer than her other calls.

Also, your purr sound you have is in the opposite direction - you're going "pppppUUUUURRRR  pppUUUUURRRR" ; you kinda want it to be "PPPUuuuuuurrr  PPPPPuuuurrrr"

Joe's video definitely rocks!

You defiantly have made improvements! The most recent clip sounds really good. Are you still doing the lip flutter, or are you doing the rouge flutter?

 Tongue flutter?

Lip flutter... I wasn't sure on cadence of the purr I'll compare it to Joe's when I get home and work on it.

Ya, really listen to Joe - it's almost like he's "swallowing" the purr at the end...  If that makes any sense...

Actually that is more of a nervous/inquisitive cluck and purr. You can see and tell that she is very nervous and she knoiws something is up. A real contented cluck and purr is very soft and melodious, if I can use that word.

Joe: 10-4; do you have or know of any videos that you can point us to so we can all practice the "soft & melodious" hen purrs & clucks?  Specifically, real hen footage in the wild of hens doing their thing.

I'd love to see it -- & I know what you mean; typically I hear & see a lot of hens on the deer stand, and it's amazing how quiet their calling is (even though their scratching sounds like an elephant coming thru the woods!)...

Thx man!
