Has anyone else tried the new Randy Anderson CatNip call. I had one given to me and I tried it for the first time this past weekend and the sound is awesome but it froze up constantly so now its hanging in a tree out in a pasture. :x

I know there are a few calls that i have had in the past that were sent for a ride the minute they froze up!! There is nothing worse than when you are on stand and the call freezes up! I stick to one type of calls now and that is any open reed :D They dont freeze up and if they for some reason stick a little you just let it sit in your mouth for a second and its ready to go.

lol

I can't remember, its a closed reed call right Daryl?? Nothing worse than a call freezing up, I have thrown many calls out the truck window because of that. Ever since I went to open reeds calls, I have never had that problem again.

you never know until you give it a try fella!! Who knows one day you might find that secret sound :wink: Thanks for the input though cause it is nice to know that it freezes. Need to learn from others mistakes or findings so that i dont do the same thing. I like your method of leaving it hang in the pasture :lol:

Ya the sound and volume were great but every time i got to the second or third series it F#@$%&* froze up so it got hung on the small tree I was sitting at and out came the Wiley One Raspy Rabbit. If you want that call Levi I can send you in to that spot. I am sure its still hanging there. Oh and we did get a double on that stand but it was a fox and a coyote. First time I ever had that happen :?
