A little calling goes a long way literally. A gobbler can hear your call and locate you when the conditions are right from a hundred yards away. There s no need for frequent calling to guide him in. If a tom is reluctant, an expert may call aggressively to tease him, but the average hunter would probably spook him.
Turkey calls come in various types everything from turkey wing bones to customized snuff cans.
One of the most common calls is a box call, which consists m ost ly of long, rectangular boxes that are built from maple, cherry, walnut, poplar and other woods. Boxes and their handles are held together with a tuning screw on one end. You chalk the handle and scrape it over the call's sounding lip or board to talk turkey. Diaphragm calls have thin latex or prophylactic reeds crimped into small aluminum frames. Learn different kinds of turkey calls by listening to cassettes, CD's or by watching videos.
