I think it ought to work.

I think the haint sounds alot better

You honestly think this is a better gobble than my rendition?

I guess my turkeys must gobble a whole lot different from your turkeys.  The Haint boys and a few others on youtube can blow that call pretty darn good with the tongue flutter, but the vast majority of guys don't sound anything like a gobble to me.
The rythm of the tongue flutter is 10x faster than the staccato nature of a natural gobble.
A couple of guys blow the Haint with the "tucka tucka tucka" technique, and they are far and away the best sounding gobbles out there.

I think that will work for what you intend it to do and I asssume that is to locate or bring in a gobbler but I would say the Haint sounds better to me.

I'd definitely pick yours over the Haint....but I think both are a waste of money.

I love my haint,almost threw it in the garbage after only a few times trying it.Practice practice practice,almost like every call right????

Number 17 I wasn't trying to affend u, your rendition of a gobble sounds well, I just answered the question u asked. I posted that vid of me blowing the haint to get some feedback , I never said I thought I was better! I agree some guys blow it and sound awesome! Sounds like I need to work on it

Why not just use a tube call and "tuka tuka tuka" into it?  Sounds as good as you need to gobble.  I have never been in a situation where I needed a huge loud boisterous gobble until this past weekend.  I didn't think about gobbling until after the fact.

I had a dominant bird in front of me that got hung up.  He ran off the other two gobblers that were behind me.  Had I thought about it I would have gobbled at him since they left and I wasn't.

Hind site is 20/20.

I just think it sounds too much like a barnyard turkey doesn't have enough roar!I hunt Eastern turkeys and when they gobble you know it

Sounds like a jake to me..I have no problems with my Haint.

Is the call you have a blow call ? Any links where to buy one ?

Waste of money.......

That's what they said about the first diaphragm calls that came out.
"Who needs that contraption when I can yelp on a blade of grass?"
Waste of money.......
