How much money do ya'll think you've spent on mouth yelpers in your hunting career? I could probably have a much nicer shotgun with the money I've spent on them in the last 15 years. Generally I run two all season but have 6-8 for some reason in the pouch. Just in case, I reckon...

Same here. The Mini Sonic Dome seems the easiest for me to use. Got a bunch in a drawer though.


Life is a journey. Make sure and bring plenty of Beer.

My luck has been so bad lately, it could be raining pussies and I'd catch one with a dick broke off in it.

Probably $500 my first 10 years of hunting, I haven't bought a mouth call in the last 8-10 years or so that I can remember.

Probably 100 dollars since I have been hunting them. I have a couple I like so I just try to keep an extra or two of each.

there is absolutely no way I could say,I have been buying these things for over 23 years,but I would say way to much I have already spent 40 or so this year and still haven't got the sound I want so I will be buying more.


I would rather be turkey hunting

I always felt that I was throwing money down a rat hole buying mouth calls, most of em sound like chit and get culled pretty quick. I'd guess I've spent several hundreds of dollars in the past.

I haven't bought one in many years and rarely use one now.


I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

I figure the Hook's boys will touch me for about $50 this coming Saturday, and I'll probably pick up a couple more stragglers if they look good and then I'll be done buying mouth calls til next spring.

I wasted a pile and then figured out how much cheaper it was to make my own. It's a lot easier to throw $.35 away than $10 if you don't like the sound just right...

That was just my backhanded way of asking for an invite. I'll trade you a hunt in PRV opening weekend for some calls grin

I don't even wanta think about this question. But I could buy a very nice shotgun if I still had the money.

I have spent way to much. Yekrut's calls work the best for me and I have tried just about all of them. Mouth calls aren't cheap anymore.

I don't spend very much on them. I have found what I like, and quit buying around.

I bought 3 mouth calls at Academy last year and none of them made it to the house 4miles away. I try several every year. Yekrut sent me two at the end of last season and I really like one of them so it's in the refrigerator and then I run a Woodhaven Red Wasp and Classic V3 both of which I really like.
