    Default Primos Sonic Dome Calls work well?

    Has anyone used the Primos Sonic Dome turkey mouth diaphram calls? Do they sound good, have good volume without cracking, and still can work well in close?

    I was thinking about getting one for this coming turkey season. Reason being that I just started using diaphram calls last spring. I figured the Sonic Dome design would help.

    I started using them when they first came out. I was very surprised how easy they were to use. Its all I buy, had a nice bird come into me last year using one. But had someone between me and the bird. I use the mini sonic dome calls, I like the smaller frames.

    I live on diaphrams I actually carry a slate but I never used it once in the last 2 years my money call is a H.S. strut Double D. I used some Primos last year (not the dome ones) they sounded pretty good.

    I bought one last year and loved it, never will buy anything else. I was also very surprised how easy it was to use. I have one domed one and one regular one and now I have a hard time using my regular one...So yes I would reccommend them.

    Thanks for the feedback everyone. I'm thinking I'll have to pick one or a few of them up then maybe kill myself a thunder chicken with it.

    I bought a call "pack" last year think, or the year before, i forget. It was a primos pack, and had 3 calls anda CD. One of the calls was a Sonic dome. I really like the way it fits, and plan on picking up a couple more. It isn't the sonic dome mini, but it still fits OK, I think I am going to a least try one though, seems like it fit a bit better.

    I disliked the Sonic Dome very much. I hated the way it felt in my mouth and just never could comfortable with it. I use the Primos A-Frame calls. They have a smaller frame and I think they are much easier to call with and they fit in my mouth a lot better and I am able to call much better. JMO

    Try the MINI version in them. They might fit better. Which is why I use them. I don't even have to cut the tape anymore!

    Regardless what the call is, if it works and you kill a bird, does it matter? The calls sound great, and yes I guess it helps the beginner with the dome. The dome helps with placement inside your mouth. Either way, they like any other mouth call, they work fine.

    I went to Dick's Sporting Goods and it looks like I'm going to have to wait a couple weeks before they get some in the store for spring. Thanks to everyone for the input.

    Good luck this spring,

    I'm going to have to give these a try. I saw them there last year but didn't buy any of them.

    I have some other primos calls and some quacker boy.

    Used it and liked it. One hint though, don't put them in a call wallet in your back pocket like my buddy did, he found out the hard way that they can be fragile if sat on...
