Goose Calls: Who's Using a Short Reed?

[goosereaper]

yup it was the SMH, but i was using it on a flock, and all of a sudden all it would do is make a high pitched shriek sound.....i didnt want to deal with it so i switched to another call on my lanyard, and the next single that came in, it worked fine and then made that shriek again(hard to explain it)....it wasnt anything that could be covered up by the other caller either....i got it home and it seemed to have went out of tune while in the field, as i rmember everything was pushed in nice and hard, and it works fine now, i just dont wanna deal with that again, so its gone

hope the goose pimp dont do that.....

Was it an unusally cold day in your area? I have had calls that were snug in the house, and took them to the field were it was cold and everything came apart.

I always keep my call inside one of the inner layers of what I have on to keep them warmer & then I even blow through them backwards a little before I start trying to make calls on really cold days!

wasnt cold at all, about 25F out(inside my "call pocket" in my coat too!), and that call had been hunted in 0 degree weather without problems....i just dont know what happened, but for some reason im still pissed about it....
