    Dont just own one! One about ten!


    I carry threee of them while Im out hunting.

    I cary about 10 different strikers as well!

    Carrying 3 calls, with 10 strikers gives you about 30 different SOUNDS!

    I carry a glass, slate, and a Alum. All work great!

    Primos "The Freak" in a crystal, or glass, plate works and sounds awesome. Wet weather does not seem to bug it much either. Wipe it dry with a sleeve and get to callin'!
    I love the way you can strap it to your leg for hands free quick and ready too.
    Its the only one I need and I bought an extra 3 pak of HS strikers to change up the sounds but the striker it came with works the best IMHO.
    Sweet purrs and hard loud cluck and yelps.
    If I had only 1 call I could have it would be this one...

    If you are looking for something other than a commercial call, consider a custom call.

    I think I paid about $13 for my Primos "The Freak" at Walmart.
    Just FYI...
    Good Luck!
