Has anyone here tried these? They seem to be all the rage in Australia and Great Britain.

went to the other site posted and it's shaped different, but about the same sounds and quite a bit cheaper...

The price of the Tenterfield might be justified.

hey Dale, i was reading in that one website where a fella was making them outta tin plates.....how hard do you think it would be to make one myself just by taking a peek at one of yours??? looks like a piece of sheet metal bent in half with two holes through it. kinda looks like a home-brew call to me.

Don't show him Dale...he's being cheap!

I thought the same thing Woody, but there is supposed to be a learning curve to them. If you don't know how to do it, you can't test the one you make. Just a thought.

 I know this is an old post but I have a fox whistle call on my fox pro that I never used. What situation would you use this call. I thought it was just to get them looking at you at night.

Close in calling like a lip squeak.  Used one last night but no takers.  Did have an owl attack my partner though.
