Developed with experts, tested in the javelina woods
The Haydel’s J-89 wasn’t built in a vacuum. Haydel’s notes it was developed with the assistance of Judd Cooney and wildlife biologist Larry Weishuhn, and that South Texas field test results have been superb—a strong indicator that this call was tuned around the real behavior and responses hunters see in javelina country.

Open call design for realistic, flexible sound
Javelina can be vocal, reactive, and at times surprisingly aggressive—especially when they feel pressured, curious, or defensive in thick brush. The open call design helps you vary tone, urgency, and cadence so your calling doesn’t sound like the same loop every time. With breath control and rhythm changes, you can create attention-getting sequences that feel more natural and more “alive” than a single-note call—useful when trying to pull animals out of cover or stop a moving group for a shot opportunity.
Clear acrylic construction for durability and consistent tone
Built from clear acrylic, the J-89 is made for real hunting conditions—dusty pockets, wet mornings, and constant handling. Acrylic is valued for its toughness and consistent sound characteristics, helping the call keep its voice season after season. Many retailers list this call specifically as an acrylic javelina call, reinforcing its durable, field-ready build. Buds Gun Shop
Why a dedicated javelina call belongs in your kit
Javelina hunting often happens in thick cover where visibility is limited and animals can appear—and disappear—fast. A dedicated call can help you:
Bring javelina closer by triggering curiosity or group response
Hold their attention long enough to get set, aim, and take a clean shot
Turn a passing encounter into a shot opportunity when brush and terrain limit movement
Add another tool for situations where spot-and-stalk alone is difficult
Haydel’s even calls it “the most exciting way to hunt these aggressive little animals,” which fits perfectly with how many hunters describe close-range javelina encounters. Haydel's Game Calls
