How Do You Use the Primos Hawk Quail Whistle 311?
Operating the Primos 311 is straightforward, allowing you to alternate between two highly effective locator sounds:
- The Quail Assembly Whistle: Place your lips on the mouthpiece and blow a controlled, rhythmic sequence mimicking the "Where-are-you?" call. This sounds like a short, low note followed quickly by a sharp, rising note: "ah-bob-white!".
- The Hawk High-Pitched Cry: To produce the sharp, piercing scream of a hunting hawk, blow a sudden, high-pressure burst of air directly from your diaphragm into the call, letting the sound trail off cleanly: "Keeeeeerrr!".
- The Grip: Hold the barrel between your thumb and index finger. Cup your remaining fingers slightly over the end to modulate backpressure and add realistic depth to your calls.
- The Strategy: Use the call periodically while moving through thick timber or scouting fields. When a tom hears the sudden predatory hawk cry or quail whistle, he will instinctively shock-gobble, giving away his exact location.
Why a Shock Locator Call is Essential
Experienced turkey hunters rely on predator and bird whistles like the Primos 311 because they call out a tom without making him expect a hen. By using a hawk or quail sound, you can safely pinpoint his exact tree or ridge while keeping him in place, allowing you to set up your decoys and call him in on your own terms.
