Fox 40 Mini Whistle - Discontinued?
Does anyone know what happened to the Fox 40 mini whistle without the CMG? I can't seem to find it on any of the officiating suppliers websites, Amazon, nor the Fox 40 website.

Found some on Amazon and eBay, but you're right otherwise. Not easy to find...Man, if they discontinue this model I might discontinue officiating!

Fox 40 Mini Whistle Black | eBay The Fox 40 Mini is frowned upon around here. Not loud enough. |
Yeah there are a few of them out there, but all the ones I see either force me to buy a lanyard I don't want, are way overpriced, or are only available in a bunch of bright colors.

Do you guys like those?? I have one and it's ok. They have a bunch here at Dunhams.

I cannot even believe people use that whistle. It was hard to hear and sounded like you did not have a strong whistle.
Peace |

Jeff: I say this tongue some what in cheek, but I think I was one of the last college officials to switch from the Fox 40 Mini to the Regular Fox 40. The Fox 40 Mini was the same approximate size as the old Acme Thunderer. And for our "young grasshoppers" out there, the Acme Thunderer was a black plastic whistle with a wooden pea in it. And I could blast it as loud as a Regular Fox 40. When everybody was making the change from the Thunderer to the Fox 40 I changed to the Mini Fox because it was the same size as the Thunderer. So much for a trip down memory lane. MTD, Sr. |

I use the mini CMG... always have, and I've never had anybody tell me it's not loud enough.

Never used it for high school games in a full gym, but I loved the mini for small gyms in rec or youth leagues. I haven't been able to get them either lately.
