I used it for 3 games hoping it would "work out," but never did. I went back to my Dolphin. I have been using it for two years, and IMO it is the best whistle on the market. Doesn't require much air, is louder than the Fox 40 Classic or Sonic, and directs the sound away from my face and ears. Yeah, I know the whole argument about not knowing which side is up when you are on the floor, but when compared to the other whistles I have used, I will gladly stay with my Dolphin. But hey, that is just my 2 cents . . . spend it if you want to.

You tried it for 3 games at camp? If it doesn't give me the loud and crisp sound that I want, I'll stop using it immediately.
