Anyone try this suck er call? What did you think? Has anyone actually called in a bull or cow with it Or get to observe a bull or cows reaction to the call?
I have more than a couple of elk calls, but only a few that I like and that have preformed.

Haven't tried them but maybe he will chime in himself and let you know. But I am sure he is out chasing bulls somewhere at this time of year.

I picked one up. Very easy to use and the sounds it puts out are awesome. More of a mellow nasally sound at lower volumes, but you can get some more crisp louder tones too. Very versatile. Hands free also. Can't wait to try it out in Idaho!

Completely agree.

I have one.
Easy to use. It's going to take some practice to find all of the pitches on it.
The only thing I can say is it's not loud and trying to make it loud only distorts the sound. It's definitely for close in work, which is fine because it's hands free. Bow or rifle in hand with the call in your mouth.

I love it, I'm going to use it to call in cats, I can make an awesome fawn bleat with it, I think it'll be a great bull coaxer too!

I picked one up from archery world yesterday for
the low, low price of 38.23 including tax.
So, I gather that the call is so new that no one has had any actual combat experience on real elk with it.
agree with the comments others have made. Down to post #6 at the time of this post. It is quiet, more so than I would have thought. I think that's the nature of it when you are sucking in as opposed to blowing out.
That being said I have bought and tried the external Reed calls that i could not call quiet on they were so freaking loud.
My first impression is that if you are a finesse diaphragm user, you may not be overly impressed. But I just got this call I need to work with it more.

Stick with there mouth reeds. There hand calls imo are nothing special with a hefty price tag.

Hunted a few days on the sauk tag. Been hunting national forest and it’s thick. Been using the easy sucker as a lost calf call. Super easy to use and got within ten yards of a herd multiple times. So far it seems like the cows all want to help this lost calf. Hoping to find a bull. And will be back at it in September.

Thanks, that's that's the kind of input I have been looking for!

If you are new to calling and dont use a diaphragm or pallet type call, I would highly recommend this call. I actually thought is was harder to use initially because using diaphragms and reed type calls for many years I have to consciously think about pulling air in rather than blowing out. However from a control standpoint it blows every reed style call I have ever tried out of the water. Most new users sound awesome immediately. It wont replace my favorite mouth calls, but it will be added to the arsenal for sure.

I've been farting around using it inside a bugle tube

Did the same thing last night, even tried to bugle w it, it’s possible, not the best for a bugle but it works.

I have 2 of them and sound quality is amazing. I also ordered the "mature cow" replacement reeds so i have one set with the young cow "blue" reed that comes with the call and the 2nd set up with the mature reeds. Gives the caller a good variety of sounds in the tackle box. Also not having to fight moisture like on other external reed calls will be a huge plus .

Order one.

Here’s a hot tip - wherever you store your EZ Suck’r make sure it isn’t oriented in a way that it can fill with debris. I had it in a side pocket of my bino harness, with one of the open ends at the top of the pocket while walking through some alder regrowth on a logging road Tuesday morning. The leaves were super dry with this brown powder/dust shaking off the bottom of them as I walked through.
Without thinking, I sucked in on the call and choked on all the dust that had accumulated inside it. My throat was bugging me for hours after that.
-
After this am, I am fast becoming a fan of this call as a coaxer. Had a good bull come into 20 yards, will post a video later today of him coming in.
For now, here's a pic from before I started filming.
-
I'm a suck-r and paid the $40 for one.
They are decent once you are in close. That's about all it's good for in my opinion. Had herds within hearing distance four times that I know of. Only once did it bring a satellite closer. Doubt I'll even dust it off next year. Mouth reeds are far superior.

Two different calls if you ask me, the mouth reeds are far superior for sure, BUT, those suckers are very nice when elk are close. very soft, elky sound comes out of them, I think they are great for the final attempt to lure in a bull or cow. Either way, my reed is not far from my mouth.

:yeah: hence why i said coaxer (close range)
-
We did a bunch of testing with the EZSukr this year (we tested a previous version in 2021). It is definitely a close to mid range call but I can get some great volume out of it with the heavier mature cow voice.
Listening to my buddies run it and listening to real cows side by side, I’m convinced it is the most accurate sounding cow call available. With that said I still find myself running diaphragms the majority of the time but it’s a dang good option for finishing a bull off or adding to herd talk.
