I think it sounds good. I would especially use it early season sitting on a field just purring and clucking every once in awhile. I imagine you would be able to load the truck up.

Sounds good. Especially the mellow side.

Also, bear in mind this was taken off a cell phone audio recorder.

In reality the call has a more hollow, resonant type sound compared to your run of the mill round slate call. Hard to tell without you actually running it and hearing it in person.

I don't claim to be a genius call maker. I just wanted to make something that didn't sound like 90% of the calls already on the shelves...not saying they sound bad but I think a majority are just reinventing the wheel.

If anything I wanted to show the high to low rasp that you get from a mature hen when she's yelping as well as the sounds that a jake might also make. And I hate glass but that's just my opinion; the turk's may feel differently.

I intended for it not be be a silky smooth sound, as I hear few turkeys that sound that way.

I'll try and post something that is more indicative of how it really sounds.

I've made probably a half dozen that sound almost the same. I also make the strikers with a hollowed out top.

Something to do when I've got some time to spare!

I'd be proud of that call man. Sounds plenty good to kill turkeys with.
Just FYI.....when making mouth calls, recording them and playing them back, I learned a true video records the actual sound better than the voice recorder on my phone. Not sure why, but it makes a difference. The app that you used may be fine, but you can try it and see if it makes a difference if you haven't already.

I don't know why y'all are giving ol' Deerslayer so much grief about his calls.....I've been using them exclusively since I started turkey hunting several years ago....
