Suggestions for a LOUD far reaching rabbit distress call

[WyoYote]

I've got some big country to hunt, wondering who makes the LOUDEST far reaching bunny distress hand call (open reed). This wouldn't be a call that I'd use in every situation, but in some of these deep long box canyons and wide open plains I could sure use the extra volume.

ps - I'm open to either a production made call or a custom call from any of our PM call makers

The YDD2 Standard.
One of the loudest, longest reaching calls ever made. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grinning-smiley-003.gif

I second that

I just happen to be finishing a turn cowhorn LOUD open reed call today, that I will post up for sale later. Not an inexpensive call, but definately loud.

Edit: I posted the call, but it sold already. Let me know if you are interested in a custom one, otherwise I'd say the Yellerdog toneboard sounds like the way to go for production.

I was just about to say, Tony Tebbe modified an old huntsman horn that was my grandfathers into a howler and if it were tuned to a Rabbit Distress, it would be heard at the other end of the county...

I'd really consider contacting him for the project.. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grinning-smiley-003.gif

I haven't run the Yellerdog, but I know his units are sure well made. SUPER smooth and consistent. Tony knows how to up the volume too. It's all about air channel and efficient exhaust.

I've got a handmade production style call for cheap on my webpage that is louder than anything I've ever heard. It literally hurts your ears to blow it. I called a long distance, high wind Coyote in SE Washington with one of them a few weeks ago. It's not as smooth running as yellerdogs, but it's still got a great sound, and man is it loud!

I've not heard the YDD2 but I can sure vouch for the YDD3 as being an excellent toneboard for all distress and you can make it very loud if you want to!!

I use the Sceery Double Barrel Jack Rabbit when I want something really loud.

If you were to look in the dictionary by the word LOUD, it would have a picture of my JackNasty by it /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
