What do you guys carry your mouth calls in? I hate those little plastic flip up cases. the calls rattle in them. Can't stand it. my vest has little tiny pockets to hold them but that feels nasty and I don't like the little snaps on the pockets. Any ideas? I used to use those little rubber pocket change holders. But I don't even see those for sale anymore.

What do y'all use?

I carry mine in my mouth.

I carry a spare in the little case it comes with in my vest.

I swallow them the day before and bring them up as needed.... cuts down on movement and keeps them from drying out.

I carry mine in a rubber change carrier that turkey guru David Gaston(Camden) gave to me in 1973.


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

I have an old plastic timberwolf snuff can. Dread the day I lose it.

I use a snuff can. Went to walmart and got some make-up sponges (they are almost the same size as inside of the snuff cans), I pour some mouthwash in and saturate the sponge, keeps the calls from molding and getting funky.

I don't know how so many keep them in a dry case. I use to try that but it didn't take long for the reeds to stick together and sound like a high pitched Genny when I went to use them.

Mine are in the fridge except when hunting. Soon as I get home I rinse in mouth wash and back to the fridge they go.

got an old grizzly plastic dip can that i've used almost 20 years now; drilled holes in the bottom & the lid so the calls can get some air... camo taped the outside & inside & it's worked for me...

Alcohol free mouthwash is your friend too. Don't use just any mouthwash
