Ive had an old scotch goose call for 15 odd years and the plurry thing has driven me nuts
everytime Ive gone to use it. it would squeel
or break at the wrong time and no matter how much I shifted the reed I just wasnt happy with it
. Tonight I got serious and dug out a old window scrapper/credit card type thinggy and took to it with the sissors to cut a new reed similar to the original from the caller. I tried it and it wasnt too bad but with similar tendasies to the original. soo I got out a sharp knife and shaved/scrapped it down to make it thinner tried it again, tootooed a bit more shaved a bit more tootooed abit more and Bobs your uncle shes a goer
. sounds better than new and I can do a good parrie call on it too. If you have an old caller give it a whirl it took about half a hour and was quite alot of fun
