I just ordered my first whistle today. Im excited about learning to play.
I ordered a tweeked sweetone d by Jerry freeman. Ive always been into
Irish and Scottish traditional music. I also ordered the Bill Ochs tutor book
If anybody has any suggestions for me that would be great.
Thanks!
Ryan.
DON’T DO IT!!! 
It’ll grab you by the short curly ones and take over your life!! You won’t be able to go anywhere without a whistle secreted about your person like a security blanket. You will drive your nearest and dearest into dark holes to escape.
Arrrrrrrggggh!!!
I only bought a cheap souvenir from an Irish trip and in 2 short years I have changed from a care free 40 something who didn’t know a reel from fishing rod to a hunchbacked troglodyte in my little shed beavering away obsessively striving for the perfect pitch!
Seriously though, good luck, keep with it and welcome to our world.!

Funny how whistles change you.
Welcome to the party! Whistling is great. Soon you will amass a huge collection of whistles and sit and admire them for hours. And you might even play them once in a while! 
Seriously, welcome…you’re in for a great ride. I don’t have any sage advice for you…it sounds like you’re getting a great starter whistle and a great tutorial.
I agree with Cees – the primary advice people would normally give, you’ve already taken. Everyone says the Bill Ochs tutorial is the best for starting out, and most people like Sweetones for beginners (especially if Jerry has tweaked them). You’re off to a great start! Welcome to the jungle…

I can already feel myself slipping into the pit and I dont even have my whistle yet!!!
I envy you-- the excitement of a beginner is wondrous indeed!
Best advice is to listen to a LOT of Celtic music, both live and recorded. Not necessarily just whistle. Flute has a LOT in common with whistle, and you will also learn a lot from good players of fiddle, accordian, etc. Find a couple of tunes on recordings that you really like, and listen to them enough so you can hum them or whistle them ( with your lips) from memory. Once you have learned the fingerings of your whistle and basic playing technique, you will be amazed how easily those memorized tunes come out of your whistle.
Try to find local sessions and hang out there when you can-- even before you are good enough to actually play. Ask local whistle players for help. Most are pretty friendly and eager to help a newbie.
Above all, have fun!
Welcome.
Howdy neighbor!
Best wishes,
