Opinions?
« on: March 01, 2021, 01:40:58 PM »
Critique please, don't be gentle.  I know the kee kee needs work, seems like I just can't get it right.   Any tips on kee keeing would be appreciated?   The gobble is a work in progress.   I can actually do a decent gobble if I think about it for a second before doing it.  I'm pretty pleased with the clucks and yelps but will tweak them as well.

OK, I'll go.
I thought you sounded pretty good. You got the basics of the Kee kee. I choke down the call a little bit at the beginning and open up more for the louder kees at the end.

I just learn how to do sound files on my phone this weekend, lol. I have no idea if there's a way to post them other than send to another cell phone.

By Choking down, do you mean at the mouth piece, the bell end  or both?

Cutting back the air on the bell end. That usually helps. You already got the note, just need the rhythm.

Sounded real good to me...... I think the trumpet sound clips are the most difficult to get right, probably why not many folks post them. I love to hear them all, thanks for posting it. Oh yeah, what trumpet were you playing?

Made by LT Pack, aka Firedup on here.   According to the unofficial contract I have to use his call with me being an official member of the unofficial Firedup Turkey Calls Prostaff.  I even got an unofficial hat and t-shirt.  But I figure if he see's this video I'll have to give the hat and t-shirt back :TooFunny:

You may have to lower your goal like I did and shoot for the unofficial prostaff.   I hear it pays the same anyway.
