Directions for using your Phelps turkey diaphragm:

Place the call in the roof of your mouth (cut latex facing up). Position it where comfortable. With the tip of your tongue placed behind your bottom teeth, roll your tongue up until it touches the latex (keep your tongue as flat and relaxed as possible.)

After taking a deep breath, force air across the latex. While your tongue is against the latex you will start the high note. Drop your bottom jaw so you are applying less pressure to the latex, creating the break over.

Directions for prepping your Phelps pot call:

1. Use the supplied conditioning stone (for both crystal over Padauk and aluminum over glass) to prepare the playing surface.
2. You will want to make a conditioned area about 1 inch by 1 inch. For a right-handed caller, the area will be to the right of center. For a left-handed caller, the area will be to the left of center. Feel free to adjust the conditioned area as needed for comfort and feel.

1. For Crystal and Aluminum: Run the conditioning stone in a left to right motion until the crystal/aluminum appears white and frosted.

Directions for using your Phelps pot call:

Once the pot is conditioned, you will run the striker vertically (top to bottom) across the scratches. Make the following calls with the striker in the conditioned area:

• Yelp: (Right-Handed) make continuous “J” strokes. (Left-Handed) make continuous “J” strokes.
• Purr: Lightly drag the striker downward across the pot. Cluck: Use quick top-to-bottom
• High Pitch: Move toward the edge.
• Low Pitch: Move toward the center
