Abstract
A game call device is disclosed that utilizes a tube to convey air (and, in some embodiments, sounds) emanating from a caller in a remote location to a game call at the other end of the tube. Some embodiments include other types of stimuli, such as optical stimuli, that can add to or enhance the attraction of animals.
Claims18
A game calling device for use in attracting animals, the game calling device comprising:
- a tube having a proximate end and a distal end;
- a mouth piece coupled to the proximate end, the mouth piece configured to transmit an air flow generated by a caller into the proximate end, through the tube and toward the distal end of the tube;
- a game call in communication with the tube such that the airflow generated by the caller exits the distal end of the tube and enters the game call, thereby causing the game call to generate a sound.
A game calling device for use in attracting animals, the game calling device comprising:
- a tube having an air input end and an air output end, the air input end configured to transmit an air flow generated by a caller through the tube and toward the air output end of the tube;
- a game call in communication with the tube such that the airflow generated by the caller enters the game call, thereby causing the game call to generate a sound, the game call being disposed at the air output end of the tube;
- and
- a visual stimulus device located proximate the game call.

A method of attracting animals using a game calling device, the method comprising steps of:
- attaching a game calling device to an environmental structure, the game calling device comprising:
- a tube having a proximate end and a distal end;
- a mouth piece coupled to the proximate end, the mouth piece configured to transmit an air flow generated by a caller into the proximate end, through the tube and toward the distal end of the tube;
- a game call in communication with the tube such that the airflow generated by the caller exits the distal end of the tube and enters the game call, thereby causing the game call to generate a sound;
- a light source located proximate the game call wherein the light source is configured to turn on when the game call generates the sound and the light is configured to turn off when the game call stops generating the sound;
- extending the tube such that the air input end of the tube is spaced from the air output end to permit the caller to be concealed;
- passing air from the caller into the air input end such that the game call is actuated to produce the sound, the sound causing the light source to turn on;
- stopping the passing of air, the step of stopping causing the light source to turn off.
