While looking around they had a mouth turkey caller. Well he talked me into buying one.. I have never been able to use one real well due to me gagging. So I can't help him. But he is determined to use one.. well needless to say he is not really good, he can putt and it doesn't sound bad but yelping and cutting not super great yet.like driving me crazy... But im sure he will get there just has to playing around and see how to make the sound he needs. Anyone have any tips so I can pass along and maybe not kill my eardrums.
