Embodiment Construction

[0011]FIG. 1 provides a cut-away view of the preferred embodiment of game call device of the present invention. The game call 10 used here for illustration has a reed holder assembly 11 fittingly inserted into a call horn 13. A user blows into the reed assembly 11 and air passes by the reed 12 and through the reed assembly air passage 16. Passing air causes the reed 12 to vibrate and create a call. The air passes through the horn 13 and exits through the horn opening 14.

[0012]As shown in FIG. 2, the reed assembly 11 comprises a lower reed support structure 21 through which the reed assembly air passage 16 runs axially. A reed 12 is held on the lower structure 21 and an upper reed clamp piece 22 sandwiches the reed 12 between the lower 21 and upper 22 parts of the reed assembly 11. As noted above, the reed assembly 11 is then fittingly inserted into a call horn 13, which holds the reed assembly 11 together.

[0013]To adjust the pitch and tone of the game call produced by the reed 12, a...

Abstract

A game call device that helps position a user's mouth over a reed call and select the call tone desired. An elastomeric cap with a reed aperture fits snugly over a reed assembly. The cap helps the user find the right position for the mouth and lips. The rubber cap helps the user to press down on the reed and reed assembly to change the pressure on the reed and the space created by the cap's cavity. Tone or pitch holes in the cap allow the user to close the holes with the user's fingers or mouth and further adjust the tone and pitch of the call.
