I saw some for sale at Fleet Farm the other day. I had never seen them before, nor have I heard of anyone using them. I'm referring to those little calls that turkey hunters often put in their mouth. I gag on those type of calls & have yet to figure out to make them make noise, so I didn't buy them. Maybe some of you use them, or might consider trying 1. I'm not sure if they make 'em for bobcat.

I've used them before. For me, not enough volume in using them

I have used diaphragms for predator hunting here in Wisconsin for decades. They are really my go-to call. In the types of terrain I hunt, I really do not need the volume that might be required in the plains, etc. In fact I avoid it.

I use turkey diaphragms and have not yet tried the ones intended for predators. When using a diaphragm there is no hand movement and I can call right through my facemask. With a little practice you can get a huge variety of prey sounds while using them.

You blow hard enough on about any mouth call it becomes a predator call really, try trimming one down or try a youth size one for a good fit. You get accustomed to them after using them for a while. You learn to make your sounds then hold it in your teeth or lips until you need to call again.

It’s not just the blowing but the tongue and jaw movement go along with that.

Pogo used to get amazing sounds using them in competition at the National trappers.

Yrs ago I just used turkey calls but have since bought some that are for predator hunting. As mentioned take scissors to them if they are to wide. Hands free and very natural sounding. Takes some getting used to. They work

I've called in a few while turkey hunting squealing with the call I had in my mouth at the time.

Check out MFK on YouTube. Tory can make some amazing call sequences with his diaphragms.

I used em for years turkey hunting. Ain't got enough air anymore to use them. I gave all my hand calls for predators to my youngest boy, I'm all electronic now
