New Whistle Poll
Has anyone tried the new Dolfin whistle? I know that FOX has a version of this one now, but I think someone else had it out before FOX. Have you tried it? Do you plan to?

I worked with a guy that used it and it wasn't really all that different. He told me that it takes less air and it is louder.

I have heard it in action and I agree with Tom on this one, but I just can't stand the way it looks. The guy using it said he loved the way it fit in his mouth and I told him that you would only hear that remark made by a guy in the officiating community.

Thought I might try it in AAU tournaments.

I can tell a difference in the sound compared to a Fox40. For me, it's Fox40 all the way. I'm with refTN, I don't like the way it looks either.

I don't eat fish so why would I want to blow a dolphin? Personally I prefer a FOX
