She wants to learn how to use a diaphragm call. Tons of fun and she only spit it across the table once!

Might need to trim it down a bit if she struggles with it.

The small frame calls are excellent for first time mouth calls. Eric

Tried and never figured those things out. I make noises that sort of resemble a sick or retarded hen. Dont forget to teach her the slate and box!

Worst turkey sounds come from a turkey often, spent a week with Ike Ashby he would drive around with his mouth call in all of the time learned a lot. One thing I found is cadence is very important. Don’t call all the time and don’t call loudly.

Practice Practice and then Practice some more. When it gets comfortable she will do better and that indeed takes time.

I tried the smaller sized one in HS Strut brand I love the full sized one I was surprised the smaller one was a noticeable different sound not even close but I’m still working with it.
