Types of callers

Mouth whistles

The most common callers are the button and the Tenterfield mouth whistles.

These whistles are low cost, very effective and a user-friendly tool. The design produces a mid-range, high pitched sound that replicates the distress call of a rabbit. Volume is easily controlled by the amount of air entering the whistle. The effective range of this whistle is limited to the environment and wind conditions that you are hunting in.

Hand-operated callers

These shaker-style calls are more difficult to use but produce a wider range of sounds and volumes. They can be operated using both hands to gain full volume that can be heard at extremely long ranges. They can also be gently shaken to produce a quiet squeak when the target is in close proximity.

Electronic callers

They can be used to attract a variety of predators including foxes, feral cats, wild dogs and even wild pigs. Some callers are pre-loaded with standard distress and mating calls, while other designs allow you to download and store different types of calls on the device. Each call has its own purpose and can be more effective when used at the right time.
