[QUOTE="Southern Sportsman, post: 5309585, member: 10399"] If it’s tickling your tongue you’re doing it wrong. That’s not a knock against you. It took me a long time before I could even make one squeak. But it should probably be further back in your mouth. You’ll use the middle of your tongue to control how much air flows over the reed. Your tongue should have minimal contact with the latex as it vibrates, except when purring and a few other soft sounds. When I’m yelping the tip of my tongue is pressed against gums below my bottom front teeth. Mouth calls are very user specific. I’ve never much liked most woodhaven mouth calls but have buddies that sound incredible with them. Different tape size/shape, different latex thickness, different latex tension, number of reeds, reed cuts, etc., etc. You’ll just have to try a bunch and find one or two you like, then go from there.
