tommy trucker Posted December 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 Ive been calling foxes with this type of call for over 6yrs now. Starting with the andre georgescu whistle this could be really hard to master for some but i got it straight away. i told everyone on ere to get one if they shot foxes a few did a few failed to even get the call to work. the cumberland call is a whistle type call but a bit easier to use it still needs some time spent on it to master it but once you can get the basic squeal going then you can squeeze the blades together to varie the pitch of the call (you cant do this with other types) you also can call while on your rifle (hands free)with practice just to get charlie in a bit closer. if anyone is interested in some of my experience with this type of call you can read the following (sorry but most of my pics have gone) CLICK HERE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hornet 6 Posted December 27, 2010 Report Share Posted December 27, 2010 follow tommys clip and don't blow , breath I have been trying that since it arrived, several mates have had a go as well. Nothing at all, for any of us, it is not as easy as the clip makes out. I will persevere for a while, but I'm losing the will now Neil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ppuk Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 after getting caller and several attempts of getting some sort of note out of it (started sounding something like a drowning crow lol)i started to think what a load of rubbish this is a piece of plastic with a couple of holes in but with a slight adjustment of the tongue it let out this almighty squeal .As pleased as punch that i had got it to work i took it with me to go check the sheep across the feilds .it was about 3pm and as i was walking across the fields thought id try the caller spent a good few minutes calling, changing the sound by pinching the end and low and behold charlie appeared through the hedge 10 yards in front of me.next time i will have the gun with me !!!!! perseverance with this call is needed and im sure it will pay off thanks tommy atb pete :good: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tommy trucker Posted January 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 (edited) i was out last night called 2 foxes in with the call videoed 1 or tried to. the cam i used was a pov cam on the side of my head but unbeknown to me was pointing to high so never got alot of footage but you can watch it on youtube, watch it in HD full screen footage is abit **** but this fox was called into about 30-35 yds and had to be stopped or god knows how close she would of came :o the footage looks like its a fair distance away but thats because the pov cam has a very wide angle lense a 170deg view WARNING THIS IS A GRAPHIC VIDEO DO NOT WATCH IF EASILY OFFENDED CLICK HERE Edited January 2, 2011 by tommy trucker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
