What's your best locator call? I'm in the market for a good locator call as well.

Mr. Gibson makes a great owl call as well as great crow calls. If his open Reed owl is not for you, Harrison Hootin' Stick.

Owl hoot. Goose call works well too. I'd say crow call is probably the least effective for me. Maybe because of the amount of crows here?

I know a lot of people like to go owl hoot early and during the day switch to a crow/goose/etc.

Could one honestly just hoot all day?

My advice is to learn to gobble on a tube call.  It is LOUD. which is the key, and will often pull a gobble out of the most reluctant birds. :icon_thumright:

I've never used a goose call but here in the south a turkey will gobble at a Canada goose at least as well as it will gobble at a crow or owl.

I think goose calls are interesting.  Its something that most hunters, especially when hunting land might not use.

There's prob lots of calls you haven't thought of. Goose may be a more common one alongside peacock, woodpecker, coyote. Coyote I don't use but peacock can be fantastic too

Owl call for me. Ron clough. Super hooter. I think that's what it's called.
