Not sure what the tape is like on an a-frame, but just for comparison I'll use Woodhaven or even other primos standard calls. They all fit me pretty well and I have what I'd call a standard pallet. My first time with a hooks was an executioner off of Midwest turkey and it was entirely too small for my pallet. Next time I ordered one was from the actual Hooks website and I requested normal tape size and it fit like a glove. The first hooks I received was very close to a youth sized call. Hopefully this helps a bit. If I had experience with the a-frame I'm sure it'd be a tad more helpful! Haha
