The Primos® Limb Hanger™ is one of our Original™ Series mouth calls constructed out of two thin prophylactic reeds creating a sensitive call that's easy to use. With a little practice, you can reproduce clear notes or raspy calls. This one is great for beginners and pros alike.
Instructions
Put the call in the middle of your mouth with the front of call facing out. The notch goes to the right, ensuring the short reed is down when using a multiple reed call. Tongue should be 1/4" to 1/2" past the reeds. Try different tongue positions for different sounds. Press your tongue against the call to seal it in the middle of the roof of your mouth.
Exercises
- Basic Sound: Take a breath of air forcing it between your tongue and the reeds. You should make a squeaking sound.
- Cluck: Say, "plock" sharply. Note, the "p" is formed with your lips when you do this.
- Yelp: Say, "cholk, cholk, cholk" while trying different mouth positions and rhythms.
- Cutting: Say, "pot, pot, pot". The lips come together for each cut.
- Purr: Vibrate your vocal cords as if gargling. Vibrate your lips or flutter your tongue. The air comes across the reeds producing a very soft, controlled vibration.
- Cackling: Say, "kit kit, cat cat cat cat, cholk cholk cholk". This call is easily achieved when the jaw is used to set the tempo and rhythm.
- Kee-Kee: Say, "pee pee pee". Make a high note, starting and stopping the flow of air with your lips.
- Kee-Kee Run: Say, "pee pee, cholk".
