Turkey Calls / Re: Call Variety

Last post by Zobo - Today at 09:32:08 AM

I constantly rotate calls throughout the season, I think it keeps the birds guessing especially in the same "coverts."
I change sounds..inflection, cadence, volume, ect, when actually calling,  so why not change calls too, especially in the absence of success🤣
I have modified my vest to include individual dedicated pockets for two box call, two slates, three strikers, two yelpers, a scratch box, and one lonely mouth call which I never use. I don't necessarily use all the pockets but they are there if need be.
And, like Greg said, weather plays a major role in choosing friction style calls for any particular outing.
I'm a little call heavy I know, but for me the calls and calling is more than half the fun of turkey hunting.

Not sure about the vest .... But I ordered the face mask, velo crew and the deception pants.  The mask is probably the best mask I have owned its well made.  The pants are extremely comfortable,  move with you and are well thought out.  I will pay money for good pants.  The velo crew (I assume the hoody is the same-just has a hood) is lack luster.  I laid it beside a Magellan camo shirt -it's the exact same and under 25$.  Absolutely no difference. 

What do you like about the facemask that sets it apart? Kinda looks like a nomad face mask

Did you try any different chokes or just the IC 570.

That prototype call is a real WINNER! Nice rasp and so easy to use.This call will cause the demise of a lot of Toms! Great job Gooserbat!

Thank You Sir.  I'm glad of the way it's turning out.  Infact I'm going to build up some this week and cut those into ghost cuts.

Turkey Calls / Re: Call Variety

Last post by GobbleNut - Today at 08:38:58 AM

I'm pretty stubborn and have had an attitude of "if they won't come to my mouth calls, they probably won't come to anything". That attitude has generally served me well, but last year I was proven wrong twice...once by a slate-surface pot and once by a box. Granted, I am a slow learner, but I am beginning to "get the picture" after a few decades of doing this.

Although I will continue to carry a dozen or so mouth calls of different persuasions again this spring, I am also sorting through a bunch of pots and boxes I have to determine which I will carry (and swear I will put to more use) this spring.

Box Calls / Re: Southern call makers?

Last post by Spring Creek Calls - Today at 08:38:23 AM

I've have or had a call from all mentioned above except for Wendell Lancaster.  Most likely the best sounding was an older (1992) box of Lamar's. Best bang for your buck (sound/cost) would be Albert Paul.

Yup, slate over glass or a non anodized aluminum. For me it's a Lonzo slate and an Enticer aluminum.
