Seems like that is two contradicting actions. I have never heard anyone purr on a trumpet that I know of. You may need to make a soundfile of that one Joe.

I can get the gargling action while sucking rather than blowing, but have not learned to do it with little enough air for a trumpet. I have heard Joe do it. He has a sound file somewhere. With trumpet so far it more resembles a "gag"gle!

I have personally heard one person purr on a wingbone. i can't remember his name, but he told me he fluttered his tongue to make it happen. It sounded amazing, but he was a freak of nature. I grab a pot when I want to make a good purr

I believe Zach Farmer described a technique to purr on a trumpet in his book. It will work on a winbone but....at least for me...not very consistant.  Involves a healthy amount of spit.

About 5 years ago I had a 9 year old at Reelfoot show who wanted a wingbone call some kind of bad. I have to say I have a very soft spot when it comes to young people who want to learn to turkey hunt. So I gave him a Wingbone.  Well I had him working the wingbone very quickly. The next thing I know he had slipped away from his mother and came over to show me what he could do. He purred on that call like he had been doing it forever. I tried to have him teach me but an old dog doesn't always learn new tricks. I sure wish I could run accross him again.

Cornbread is the only person I've ever heard purr on a suction call and it was spot-on. I DID ask him how he did it and he said, "I don't really know, I just do it."  ;D
