Mastering the Teal Call: A Quick Tip from Jonathan Morton

DUCK HUNTING

Ever wondered how to add a touch of realism to your duck hunting calls? Jonathan Morton, a seasoned caller from Echo Calls, has a simple yet effective trick to help you master the teal call.

The Technique

According to Morton, the key to a successful teal call lies in the tongue placement and pressure. Here’s how to do it:

  1. Choose the Right Call: Opt for a call with a higher pitch and more squeal, like the Pure Me or XLT.
  2. Position Your Tongue: Place your tongue on the roof of your mouth, near the front.
  3. Apply Pressure: Gently press your tongue against the roof of your mouth.
  4. Blow: Exhale forcefully, pushing your tongue out of the way.

Pro Tip: Practice blowing your tongue out slowly at first to get a feel for the technique. Once you’re comfortable, speed it up to mimic the rapid cadence of a teal call.

The Result

By following these steps, you’ll be able to produce a realistic teal call that will have ducks flocking to your decoys. Morton guarantees that this technique will work wonders for your hunting success.
