Here is a true story...and an unbiased review of the new Twisted Syco call.
I rec'd the call & DVD on Saturday, & like a kid @ Christmas, I couldn't wait to tear into both. Truth be told, I had to re-watch the DVD because I was making so much noise with the call, I couldn't hear the DVD!
I could not put the call down all evening!
The call not only has a longer toneboard, the call bosy is longer & re-shaped for a better grip, IMO.
If you've ever been a fan of the original Syco, or just love to make crazy blood-curdling sounds that your neighbor can't make on his call...the DO NOT pass up this new call!!
The original is a wicked sounding call. But this new Twisted Syco can make an even broader assortment of sick, dismembering, rip that bunny apart sounds. You can get all the same sounds as the original, but with the longer toneboard, you have a access to a deeper tone too.
I've read where people have complained they "can't get the original Syco to produce what they thought it should"...all while they were trying to use the regular old "waa-waa" rythmns.
I'm not sure if Rick would agree with me, but IMO, you want to forget about the "waa-waa". Especially with this new call. What I do is theink to myself, "Oh man, I'm being pulled apart one bite at a time!!! HHEEELLLLPPP MMMEEEE, AAAIIIII!!!!"
Now the true story...
How well does it call predators??? Depends on whether you consider neighbors & the local police "predators"!!!
They must be, because my neighbor call the police Saturday, reporting that either a woman or child was being beaten in my house.
Fortunately, I got the door open before they could knock it down. And for the record, there was no one else in the house, other than myself. Neither cop believed my story of just practicing my calling...until I picked up the call & demonstrated.LOL
Personally, I really didn't think Rick could improve on the Syco. But I'm glad to admit that I was wrong. If you buy only one call this year, buy the Twisted Syco...and learn how to use it. You won't regret it!!
