  • Patent number: 6149492
    Abstract: A portable game call ideally adapted for turkey hunting is user transformable between a variety of configurations for producing selected, game-attractive sounds. A rigid supportive hub assembly, generally in the form of a parallelepiped at least temporarily mounts the remaining parts for transportation and storage. The hub assembly comprises an upwardly projecting dome that removably gimbel mounts a ring assembly. The removable ring assembly mounts two radially spaced apart, outwardly extending strikers that can be rubbed across a frictional striking surface on the call for making "peg and slate" sounds. An outwardly extending hollow metal suction tube located between the strikers makes "wing bone" sounds. An elongated, blade-like sounding vane removably coupled to the call is slidably received within a slot in the hub. A timing cord extending between the vane and the ring enables the vane, once removed, to be spun in the air by a hunter to produce the "Pulmonic Puff" sound of the wild turkey gobble.
