Abstract: A call is provided which can be use for calling Whitetail Deer and the like. The call includes a body, a mouth piece, a core piece disposed within at least one of the body and the mouth piece, a first opening in the mouth piece to accept incoming air, an opening in the core to divert a portion of the incoming air, and the core piece and the body are shaped to create an air path way such that air traveling through the path way produces a nasal sound without use of a reed.

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0001]This application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. .sctn. 119 to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60/755,160, filed Dec. 30, 2005, herein incorporated by reference in its entirety.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002]The present invention relates to an animal game call, and more particularly, but without limitation, to a deer calling/attracting mouth blown call.

[0003]One of the problems with game calls is that they can be difficult to use and produce inconsistent results. Often times, proper use of a call can only be performed by someone who has skill in its use after significant practice. Sometimes this involves specific mouth, lip and tongue movements or contortions. This can be difficult for some to learn and can produce inconsistent results even for those who are trained.

[0004]When mouth pieces use reeds, there are other factors that can lead to inconsistent results. The reed can become cracked or damaged over time. The reed may perform differently in different environmental conditions (such as cold temperatures). What is needed is call that does not require any special skill yet produces consistent and reliable results for attracting deer and the like.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0005]Therefore, it is a primary object, feature, or advantage of the present invention to improve over the state of the art.

[0006]It is another object, feature, or advantage of the present invention to provide an animal call which can be used to assist in the hunting of deer and similar animals.

[0007]A further object, feature or advantage of the present invention is to produce a snort wheeze sound associated with bucks.

[0008]It is another object, feature, or advantage of the present invention to provide a call that does not require training the user to make specific mouth and lip movements to create a desired animal sound.

[0009]A further object, feature, or advantage of the present invention of the present invention to provide a call that does not require any reeds to produce vibrations.

[0010]One or more of these and/or other objects, features, or advantages of the present invention will be apparent from the specification and claims that follow.

[0011]In a preferred form, the present invention is intended to be used as a hunting call/aid while hunting Whitetail Deer. It is of three-piece construction with an air diversion in the core piece that when blown through emits the desired sound. This deer calling device or blower emits a sound which can be described as FFF_FFF_FFFFFFFFF! Such a sound is known as a "snort wheeze" and is associated with dominant bucks. It is a sound a buck makes by blowing air through its nose when trying to intimidate another buck. The snort wheeze is the highest form of aggression and is primarily performed by bucks before a charge, leg kick or fight. It may scare off lesser bucks, while attracting a dominant buck.

[0012]The animal call of the present invention does not require reeds or vibrating pieces to make the snort wheeze sound. A person blows through the mouthpiece and the air travels into the core piece where it goes through holes. That air then flows through the body of the call which when escaping produces a distinct nasal blow. The combination of air restriction or diversion and the size and shape of the core of the call along with the design of the body of the call is what makes the desired nasal wheeze sound that makes this call function. The call does not require any reeds or gyrations of the mouth and lips to make the desired sound. No matter who blows this call or how hard he or she blows, the sound will remain constant. The call is preferably 1 inch in diameter and 5 inches long. It is preferably tube shaped with a distinct sway or curve in the body of the call.
