I've received three messages asking about how to growl or lip bawl.

The growl is just inflicting your voice/throat gargle into the call.

The lip bawl requires a tight sputtering of the lips while the bugle is continuing to be made.

I may putogether a video as it will be easier to demonstrate on video than explain with words.

It's new and Jon is working on getting me to be able to update my own site.  In the meantime, you can order the dragon slayer and let me know.  As well as the signature bull or cow just order another call and I will make notes.

I'm hoping to have the site up to date early next week, sorry for the inconvenience.

Phelps you have any basic calls that come in like a combo pack? Pretty much something for a new guy to cover calling.

I recommend the elk commander for beginners.  It is very easy to use and you won't outgrow it.

Jason, so I see you have the two different frames. I like the Raging Bull call, it fits very well in my mouth. What frame size is that? that will help me with what I order going forward. I have purchased to many diaphragm calls that are just two large and hard to work with. It gets expensive trying things out. If I know what I need and where I can get them, I'm golden :)

Thanks in advance!

Jason,
How do your sizes compare to the primos mouth calls?  That is the size I need and I want to order up a couple so I can call that bull in for Brian B.   :chuckle:

Thanks!

Brain,

The small is the size most similar to primos.  The large is the size of many of the turkey calls out.
