I keep mine in a little plastic case lined with foam to keep out light and a tissue to dry them off immedatly. ☺️ now I just need to get more practice in with my double me reed bull call. I can bugle fine with a doe call but the bull call is tripping me up. 😅
Good info. I always been afraid of bacteria growing on them. I’m still looking for my chance to get one of those bugle covers.
Dude, you're my hero
Ordered my first call couple of days ago. Good to know how to properly store them! Can't wait to get practicing!
Awesome....thanks
I put mine in an old dip can and just drill out a couple holes. Works well for me
Great idea. I was thinking about buying a call case but I got plenty of dip cans around!
Great video!
😂 probably the worst I'll ever hear you call Corey with that bad diaphragm! Awesome video Corey!
Calls are cheap just buy new ones every year. I wouldn’t risk a $1200 hunting trip for an extra $10-20. JMO. Thanks for the video.
True! But nice to know how to make them last longer.
@6:38.....still sound better then most hunters out there! Lol!
Do you sell sleeves for the tubes??? I want one. But in a different pattern of camouflage.
I just pulled mine out using this advice of storing in a case and in my closet and now I have one funky taste in my mouth. I wish I would have put them in the refrigerator.
Do you ever trim the material around the frame? How should material fit along side of teeth? Or should it not hit the teeth and only be on the pallet?.....I have a narrow and high arched pallet
Should have watched this a week ago my all star 2.0 just ripped but I took it to work a couple of days and left it in my truck 😢
Does chewing tobacco deteriorate diaphragm calls as well?
Hi Alan, yes, chewing tobacco will definitely have an effect on breaking down the latex of a diaphragm call.
Thanks for the info! Great tips!! I was also curious about that sleeve for your tube. Can we order these somewhere? I like that pocket! Thanks again!
What bugle tube/case do you use??
I experienced this but in my glovebox! Got to hot !!
I am new and just ordered a couple of reeds, I don't like my dentures and curious if I can use a reed without teeth?
Hi Eric! Great question :) If you’re able to get a good seal and making accurate sounds without your dentures in, then absolutely!
@@Elk101 I'll have to try it out and let you know...
Yes it is possible! Lol
His worst call still sounds better then my best call hahaha
The colored latex seems to deteriorate faster than the natural ones....... I should make a bet with someone that my 101 Contender WILL survive another season of rookie using abuse trying to call in ALL bulls & ALL hunters to my feet !!! haha..... Hands down these calls are TOUGH compared to the others..!!!
TDO, you are correct. Latex in its natural form is natural/clear. The dyes that are added to change the color of latex break down the physical properties of the latex and allow it to absorb more moisture. That process also causes more inconsistencies in the performance of the latex as well.
