  • Calling turkeys with a mouth call can be challenging for turkey hunters getting started but learning to master the diaphragm call for turkey hunting can be very rewarding for a turkey hunter of any level. When getting started with a mouth call a huge first step is just knowing the mechanics of a mouth call and how it’s made. Secondly knowing where and how to place a mouth call for success is fundamental for calling turkeys with a mouthcall.
    In this video Edward gives you a comprehensive look at a turkey diaphragm call and then talks about proper call placement with a detailed explanation of how to place a turkey call in your mouth. If you’re trying to learn to call turkeys you’ll not want to miss this one.

    As a guy who has no clue what he's doing right now this video seriously helped me with a physical display I could look at.
    I had my call WAY too far forward.

    After scanning several other videos I just started your video and skimmed the timeline of the video to see what you do in it. You are the ONLY one I have found so far that has ANY VISUAL demonstration where in the roof of your mouth its supposed to go. Thank you!!

      Thanks DH. I will have to incorporate this more often. I was sitting with my kid at the orthodontist when this hit me. I saw a little model mouth and said. “I’ve got to get one of those.”
      Glad it was helpful for you

    Sure wish this video would have been around in 1995. The fake jaws demo would have been mighty helpful. I went months thinking the latex went to the back of the mouth.

    • @callemorcrawlem
      @callemorcrawlem  Před rokem +2

      Thanks Julius, I agree. The shape of the mouth call is counter-intuitive to how we would think it is supposed to go. I remember when I first started I am sure there were lots of folks in my house wanting to cut that thing up.

    2 feet of snow on the ground up here in MN. Hard to imagine turkey hunting but trying to get excited. I can make sounds with mouth calls and don't gag but the latex makes my tongue itch for days. Gonna deal with it tho.

  • @andrewpica2473
    @andrewpica2473 Před rokem +1

    I’m new to mouth calls. Where do you put your tongue? Do you use the tip of the tongue or middle of the tongue to create pressure?

    • @callemorcrawlem
      @callemorcrawlem  Před rokem +4

      Andrew,
      This can be a bit tricky to explain, so I may need to add a video that captures this with use of the model mouth.
      All that said though, if you think of the call as an instrument (let's say a guitar) your tongue would be your fingers. So you cannot rely on a stagnant tongue position. You'll need to learn to flex and relax your tongue in a sense in order to manipulate different pressures on the reed as air passes over it. I will put some thought into how I can illustrate this and circle back to you.
      Good luck this spring.

    • @callemorcrawlem
      @callemorcrawlem  Před rokem +2

      Definitely makes a difference in the sound. Often times the cut reed will be a significant different color and can help to identify the "top" of the call.

  • @nebules9523
    @nebules9523 Před rokem +1

    I can’t get mine to stick to the roof of my mouth. It keeps falling down and not staying, I’m assuming because it might be too big for it?

    • @callemorcrawlem
      @callemorcrawlem  Před rokem

      Possibly. So the question would be are the edges of the tape on your teeth as far as your pre molars and such. It should sit fair flush on the inner rim of the teeth.

    Hello, I am from New Brunswick Canada. Wild turkey's are a new addition to our province. And this spring will be our 3rd season (lottery). I don't plan on hunting them, but still want to try calling toms to my camera. I have tried calling by mouth, and I can get it a bit.. but it is too hard on my throat. I am 64 and wear both sets of dentures. I would think that these diaphragm calls would not stay in place. So my question to you is...what type of call should I as a beginner buy that will give me a varied amount of hen calls? I don't really like the idea of a slate call, because as I understand they require some maintenance. Just subscribed, do you have video that will cover this? Thank You!😊👍

    • @callemorcrawlem
      @callemorcrawlem  Před rokem +1

      Hey buddy! I would recommend a ceramic surface pot call. Waterproof and practically indestructible. Requires very little maintenance. Occasional light sanding with some 320 grit if anything. I do have some videos on call maintenance and plan to put out more.
      I have a ceramic surface call that I sale that I believe would be just what you need

      @callemorcrawlem  Před 3 měsíci

      The tape if that is what you're referring to can be trimmed down to fit your mouth or you can try a smaller frame call - you don't necessarily have to have a seal with the call on the roof of your mouth, it's more so learning to activate the reed
