Thanks.  There were only 93 mosquitoes killed during the making of it.  I also got lit up by stinging needles when I went on my little walk.  The things I do for you guys :chuckle:

Full draw film tour was awesome!

Also, I plan on putting together a few "how-to" videos as well.

Will you have some available Sunday at the seminar in granite falls?
Title: Re: Phelps Game Calls Elk Diaphragms
Post by: JPhelps on June 24, 2013, 02:21:26 PM
Yeah, I will have some made up and i think I'm going to bring my press in case some guys/gals want me to dial in some custom diaphragms.
Title: Re: Phelps Game Calls Elk Diaphragms
Post by: JPhelps on June 24, 2013, 05:14:07 PM
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.

Awesome stuff . I am jealous of your chuckle. no matter how many times I try I sound like crap when I chuckle.. My vocal coordination just does not work when I try. Which is funny because I am a singer

As I already told you today, that was a great video Jason. Your ability to call effectively with every type of reed makes me jealous!

I have a boring but effective calling strategy.  You only have to use 3 calls.

For your next video, how about demonstrating the various sound for cows, calfs chirps, mews and such and different bugle challange, locator and such.

I'd like to pick up a couple of your new diaphrams, but am having trouple with your website.  Is it down, or just me?

It worked for me.  Let me know if you have any problems.

Yep. That works.  Thanks. :tup:

I don't see that "split Y" diaphram on your site.  Is it new, or unavailable or did I just miss it?  Thanks
Title: Re: Phelps Game Calls Elk Diaphragms
Post by: JPhelps on June 28, 2013, 11:39:53 AM
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.
Title: Re: Phelps Game Calls Elk Diaphragms
Post by: MtnMuley on June 28, 2013, 11:43:33 AM
Sounds good.  I will just wait until next week or whenever your site gets updated.  No worries, because I won't be hitting the hills this season without a few. ;)

Not by me.  I will write this down.

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!
Title: Re: Phelps Game Calls Elk Diaphragms

My small is the same frame size as the Raging Bull :tup:

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!
Brian C.
Title: Re: Phelps Game Calls Elk Diaphragms
Post by: JPhelps on July 29, 2013, 03:25:42 PM
Brain,

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