I use the CMG whistles... I go through about 2 a season... about 50 games apiece, give or take.

I don't rotate them, I use one until the grip wears out, then I replace it with a new one.

At $6/whistle, that means the whistle costs me about $0.12/game.... hardly worth worrying about.

Do you bite the whistle, or do you hold it with your lips? Methinks that holding it with the lips would make the cushion last longer.... I'm a biter though.

What flavor?

If you guys didn't marinate your whistles in BBQ sauce before games maybe you could lay off. I personally enjoy mine broiled with a side of twice baked potatoes!

I use a standard Fox 40 for both football and basketball. Even the hard plastic has all kinds of teeth marks on it. I can only imagine what the soft plastic would look like
