Hey just a heads up, for those of you that can pick up a diaphragm call and use it with no instructions, you should try your hand at playing the blues harmonica.
I can play both
Ha! I was thinking same thing, if you can bend a note on the harmonica, this should be a sinch
I suck at harmonica but good at diaphragm
@@davidtarshis6658 bending notes 👌
@@davidtarshis6658 agreed
I watched this because I wanted to hunt elk one day. They're marvelous animals with a big meat yield. However, what I wasn't ready for was the inhale where I swallowed the piece in my mouth. Got another one, great video, very informative
Swallowed like... Never came back?
@@peadookie it came back eventually in Lincoln log form
@@Order-oe5ej 😂 that's a hell of a learning to hunt story, my friend. Thanks for sharing so I don't make the same mistake!
I got decent at turkey alling as a teen. I just got your green call for my first elk season. Boy oh boy there is not as much overlap as I'd hoped. It took about half of a 4 hour drive to stop sounding like a mammalian chicken, then another hour to not sound like a 500 pound bird.
Haha I just ordered my first elk diaphragm and was good with the turkey ones in jr high and was hoping that would help
@@jakeski3142 lol didn’t help me, not yet. There’s something different about the construction that still keeps me from having good control. Also last year I washed some in my pocket and they tasted like absolute shit 🤣
@@jcarry5214 Well I have that to look forward to. If someone is going to leave things in their pocket, it’s me. Lol. I’ll come back next week and tell you how bad I sound
@@jakeski3142 we can have a concert lol.
@@jakeski3142 my names jake too fyi. Two jakes sounding like constipated turkeys in the elk woods
Great video and informative. I got one from my kids for Father’s Day. They are dying with laughter as I’m trying to figure it out!
My dad got me one and he is dying watching me choke on iy
How's it going now? Im just getting mine in few days. I tried...15 yrs ago or so and couldn't get it. Hopefully now I can with some help finally.
I guess im randomly asking but does anybody know of a tool to log back into an Instagram account??
I stupidly forgot the account password. I love any help you can offer me.

Holly hell I bought my first elk call today and my buddy’s are already impressed just by watching this and taking a few hours practicing
Friendly reminder it’s called a elk reed
"you should hear this sound"
uber ad starts playing
Same!
Absolutely annoying.
You may not believe this, but you have no idea what you have just described!! I mean that in a positive way, because I've been playing trumpet for 56 years, and the hiss that you describe, is EXACTLY how we position our tongue to play in the extreme upper register… A.k.a. really high notes!! It's the same way....to play higher you push your tongue up against your roof your mouth harder so you have to blow harder to get those notes, and it produces a venturi effect, thereby causing the air steam to travel at a much faster speed!! Isn't that something!!!
Hands down the most detailed video I've seen on how to use a diaphragm call. Not sure where I'd be in my hunting knowledge without Corey. I'm a software engineer and really appreciate the detailed and thought out step by step progression explained clearly. You can see Corey's past life as an engineer :)
Hah! Same! Good documentation lol.
I became extremely good with a diaphragm call today one hour after I got it this video helped me allot and now I sound very good after only one hour. Thank you
I have used a diaphragm bugle for years and have never been able to explain it to fellow hunters when asked how to do it you do an amazing job of explaining it when asked from now on i am 100% goning to refer them to this video
You guys truly care. It shows! The amount of effort that a regular hunt takes, these hunts have to take so much more. So cool!
I’m just learning how to reed bugle, and this video is exactly what I needed. Within a few minutes my calls already sound better.
super informative video. broke it down step by step appreciate it. p.s. at 9:07 im not sure why but i laughed my ass off at how still you were.
figured it out in 30 seconds with this video. Hell yes.
I've tried for years to make even any sound from elk and turkey diaphragm calls, the second I tried the "hisss" trick, boom it made the perfect sound. Now that was a pro tip!
I transitioned from coyote to elk quite easily the high notes are similar I found the champ call worked best for me
I never realized how hard this was. But thank you for this video it is super helpful trying to figure these things out.
There isn't even elk in my country, yet i am still watching these vids
Same😂😂😂
So, good! My husband can't hunt with me this year so I'll be calling on my own😳😳😳 this will help immensely!
How did the hunt go?
I've never hunted elk or even tried to bugle. But dream to one day. But I have used a turkey diaphram and finally after a few years learned to be half way decent. If there had been a video that was this informative I would have picked it up sooner.
I wish I would have had this a couple months ago. What a great teaching video. Corey, thanks so much. Going out for my first Elk trip in October. Trying to at least get the basics down. Lance
Thank you so much for doing this video!!!
Many people have calling videos, but they don’t talk about how to actually use the diaphragm. I have never been able to make a diaphragm call work and I’ve tried and tried, first time after watching this video, bam, it worked. Now I just need to perfect it. Thank you again!
I was able to call for elk without a diaphragm, the guy that I was with was calling for elk one night and asked if some of us wanted to try so we did, (at the time, my friends and I that wanted to try knew nothing about bugling) so the guy handed us this tube looking thing but didn’t tell us there was a diaphragm so we were just sounding like a bunch of morons in the process. After I saw my friend try over and over, I decided to try one more time... so I took a deep breath and made my voice really high and it actually worked, but what was the most interesting part to me tho is once I hit the “frequency” my voice kinda just locked in that tune, it was probably one of my favorite experiences while camping!
This is a fantastic explanation of how to bugle with a diaphragm. By far the best one I’ve found. You sir, got a new sub!
Thank you ever so very much ,corey is truly a wonderful person ,to show how to work a diaphram call ,Corey is a awesome teacher ,and good luck to everyone, thank you so very very much corey, Curtis Slattum thank you
You’re an awesome teacher! I’m listening because I’ve never done this before, but would like to call someday lol
Watched your videos for a week. Bought my diaphragm about an hour ago and the fiancé is flipping his mind how I’ve already been able to get a cow call down.
this is the vid that has really gotten it to click for me. i still can't really hit the pitch for cow calls or bugles but this vid finally got me on the right track.
Just thought I’d write a post for you Corey, I thought this video would be the one because I started here, today I called in a very large 6x6 bull elk from private land onto a very overhunted piece of crown land and he had a couple cows already too, your methods on all your videos are unreal, absolute gold mine for elk hunters, would love to come and do a hunt with you one day, cheers from Manitoba
Really a great video. I have watched a few now to try and learn to use my diaphragm call and before this video i was just spitting lol. After this video, wow. It WORKS! Great instructions Thanks!
Best description on how to use these calls. Thanks for great info.
So... I've used these before. However it had been a while. So this video was a good refresher. In addition. I have recently had to have a large number of my teeth removed due to a long career in fire and rescue resulting in issues with my teeth. So I have learned that not having teeth makes using these allot harder. So diaphragm selection is much more critical. Several of the ones I had previously used easily were no longer usable. They were just too big. I have had to resort to smaller diaphragms. I still have trouble making cow calls. But that is fine.
Lol anyone else drool a ton trying to call with these things making it harder to learn?
This, IMO is best diaphragm tutorial. You just got a sub. Thanks!
Awesome stuff Corey. I just got my first two diaphragm calls and this helped a ton.
Thank you. Im new to calls and a solo hunter so I appreciate the video.
Trevor and Cletus approve this video!
Great video, thanks a lot
I live across the street from an elk farm. I bought an elk call and used it for the first time tonight after watching this video. I sounded terrible, but the elk were responding very vocally and frequently. I would call and 6-7 bulls would respond. I waited for everything to die off and then repeated my call and all of the bulls called back. Not too bad for only watching this video and having no other experience.
My sister and brother in law got me a couple of calls today, an elk and a turkey. Your video was a great tutorial on how to use it, thank you!
Will be using this weekend!!!
Thanks for the video very helpful
Awesome info thanks
'HSSSSS' sound worked for me
Mr. Jacobsen you’re awesome 👍
Great information thank you
This helped me so much! Thank you
Awesome video thank you, finally I know how to place it in my LOL.
Best instructions on the internet
So freaking cool! Way to go Donnie D! Good stuff guys as always!👍
Awesome vid. Thank you for help. Was making good sound right after. Now practice practice.
Thank you for this video!
Thank you I needed this!
Awesome video! Super helpful.
Thanks this was amazing!
Another great video Cory, I've tried this for many years, but ever since I had to get an upper denture I've struggled with consistency because of the way it sits against it. I've tried an endless variety of different calls with very little luck. I've even tried modifying them to fit better against the flat hard palate. I'm not giving up, and I will figure it out eventually. Thanks again, always enjoy your videos.
I had the same problem, but last year I finally figured it out . Stick with it once you get it, you will have no problems duplicating it n then you just start getting better and better!
How's it going now? Getting it? I"m starting soon myself. IT's hard I know that.
@@kee7678 ohhh yeah, working good now
8:23 sounds great, then everything goes totally silent for several seconds and my dog starts going berserk.
Nice beginners class. Come on peaks!
I appreciate the information
Im here after having the diaphragm backwards in the mouth and it obviously not working….now it sounds great, gotta say years of goose calling definitely helps!
Thanks corey!
Lol.
Hiss.
That was good.
Am I going to be able to control the sound with my dentures. I don't want to spit both the dentures and diagram out.🤣
Hey.guys.from philipines..i like your team elk101..
I asked UA-cam what chucklebrush was and this is what I got.
incredible!
9:07 you're a world class opera singer
Thank you!!
I'm a 12 year old and I learned a lot
I'm going to get one just to FREAK OUT PEOPLE AROUND MY NEIGHBORHOOD!
Thanks
Great video
Advice please!! I think I trimmed my bull call just a teeny bit too much so I stop gagging while using it, but I worry if I'm not getting enough seal. Any way to fix this or do I need a new one?
At least I'm getting good at the single reed cow call and can even bugle with it. 😅
Thanks Champ
Just picked these up threw them in my mouth took me 30 minutes of driving home and making my son and gf laugh at me until i finally got some great results 😂 these reeds rock primos seem to skinny for the roof of my mouth
does anyone have problems using these calls if you still have your tonsils?
Does your team go to different shows to help in picking a call? Just try and try with mouth calls and can’t get it down. Recently purchased the Select A call from you and been trying that. Not sure I’m any better but I’m at least getting more tones. Thanks, Troy
So, if I can use a mouth diaphram for turkey, this shouldnt be to different..correct?
How do you deal with a very wet mouth and calls? My dentist even has me written down as having a small and wet mouth, so when I have a call in my mouth I end up spitting and dripping constantly. I am considering cutting down the call to hopefully better fit, but with the constant saliva I can't get a single blip from it.
So quick question for anybody who sees this. How does one get started hunting. And I’m talking hunting basically anything. I’m 24 and I have never hunted in my life. I fish a lot but have never hunted. A life goal I have is to hunt an elk and a turkey. Let’s say I have no friends or anybody I know that hunts. How would I plan my first hunt? Thank you guys
They have guided hunts all over the place. Kind of expensive but a guide will take you out and help you find the animals and walk you through it. You'll be hunting on private land a lot of the time too. Or, start hunting really small game like quail until you feel ready. I always eat anything I kill, I never do it "just to kill"
Seems like I am struggling lately with the Contender diaphragm. But it’s been really hot. I usually have my calls in the pickup. Out of the sun but in the pickup. Also, with the heat I usually have dry mouth. Could this partnered with dry mouth be why my bugles seem so raspy lately?
Be sure and watch the video on our UA-cam channel about Proper Diaphragm Care...heat, sun, and moisture will kill a diaphragm...
I think what I have determined is that it is not the latex but the tape. When I have been bringing the reeds back inside and put them in the fridge. As soon as the stiffened up the tape worked and sealed fine. Latex still seems good so far. The tape just got to soft and wouldn’t seal. Hope if someone else is having this same issue can find this helpful. Heats bad. But if you want to practice make sure you taking turns with calls! Take them back inside and grab a fresh one every day or so
So im.from nyc if i use this will i have cows at my door? Are these banned at zoos?
Good,im prepared for halloween
I have a question is an elk diaphragm call the same thing as a turkey diaphragm call? I've used turkey calls and I am just getting into elk thanks in advance!
I can make decent sounds for a starter. My problem is my spit is excessive. Does this go away?
Nice vid but weird question- where did you get that shirt?
It’s one of the ones he sells
why is the sound I am making still very high pitch?
Can a reed be trimmed to fit better
No, dont cut the reed but you can trim the outer diameter. The orange part of the call he has. Trim tiny pieces off until you get the proper seal. You can always trim more but cant put it back.
Man its hard doing all the steps and nothing really frustrating but not giving up
Sir after this video I feel I can use a diaphragm call.
that was G4 - E7 2.75 octaves
Sitting here w it In my mouth it’s pretty easy, and I’m using a turkey call LMAO it’s not perfect but it’s working
Dam that's nice
can i hang out with you for a week or two
My problem seems to be twofold: I clearly drool too much and as much as someone can explain it, unless you yourself can actually FEEL what proper mouth placement is, you just ain't gonna get it.
Good thing I'm practicing months in advance...
I can’t use the call but my Brother can do it and he is two years younger than me.
Without context this would be so funny 4:08
I tried randy40 like ya said in the other video with randy to sign up for the elk101? Not working
Its most likely an old promo code
👍👍👍
I just use my turkey calls. Double Reed elk calls are the easiest.
Every time I put the call in my mouth and my tongue against it I never get a sound. What’s happening
Keep trying! One day you will get that sound you're looking for. Most people can't use these because they give up where you are. Take it work, in the car and around the house. Drive your neighbors crazy.
Montana Mike thank you!
Your Boii Grey try different diaphragms
Guess I’ve been good at calls. I learned how to call without using any tools. I got a baby elk being pissy/distressed
