A question for call-makers (and anybody else)

[willketchum]

I started making open reed calls in about 1977 (out of plastic screw driver handles). A lot of them were just noise makers but a few actually called predators. I've made a lot of calls since and most will call in a coyote. There have been a few in all those years that worked exceptionally well. It seems to me that the ones that were exceptional could be felt as much as heard. I believe that those calls had exactly the right rate of vibration to the reed (frequency?). Does anyone know of any research that has been done along those lines.? It is entirely possible that I've been blowing calls too long and gone off the deep end but I don't think so. What do ya'll think?

Back before I startd making calls. I bought a crit-r-call howler which came with a manual. There was , I believe a biologist, who worked on the frequencies of the vocalization. Thats all I can remember if I'm correct. I've been known to be wrong once. LOL!

God Bless,

thanks for replying. It seems like I have read something along those lines also. Seems like it was an article on the history of varmint calling. Been too long ago
