Turkey Calls / Firewood to HenBox
Last post by TheBigSnood - Today at 01:10:47 PM
Last year we dropped a big ash tree. This summer, while splitting rounds for firewood, I kept noticing these wild worm holes running through one particular call blank.

Had to turn it into a turkey call... because obviously.

The ash + emerald ash borer tracks were basically begging for it.

What do y'all think—

Just bought a Franchi Affinity 3 compact for my son and looking for a Indian Creek Benelli Mobil .562 or .570.

Thank you

Is there state land in OK. that is worth that price tag anymore?  A certain popular one was a total mess a decade ago when it probably still had birds!

Quote from: akp on December 10, 2025, 06:59:19 PMAnd non residents have to now sign in online before hunting WMAs.

Which is kind of silly to only require non-residents to check in. Several states have WMA Check-In for all users, which provides extremely valuable data. So now they are going to gather non-resident use, but not resident use? What baseline are they going to compare the non-resident use to? They really should just require WMA check-in for all. They are leaving good data on the table.

I imagine they will use the non-resident use data to eventually go to a draw/quota system, which was first proposed. Personally, I'd much rather see a draw/quota system rather than trying to price out non-residents. With WMA Check-In for all hunters, they'd get a great idea of what quotas should be. I guess since they didn't go the draw/quota route from the start, they figured the new $100 Game Bird permit would help alleviate some NR numbers.

Ultimately, their resident hunters who travel out of state will suffer too as other states respond. "Oh, Oklahoma can get $350 for a turkey and $700+ for a deer? We can too!"

I'm all for states getting a handle on non-resident pressure. They owe it to their resident hunters. But this route of pricing people out is bad for the future of hunting.

LEARNING TO TURKEY HUNT / Re: Advantages Of Mouth Calls?
Last post by bbcoach - Today at 07:59:31 AM
Good Advice from those above.  One thing that hasn't been mentioned is you have to find the mouth call that fits you and the airflow for the caller you are.  Most of the time, you will spend tons of money and countless hours trying to find the right call for you and the sound you trying to achieve.  There are systematic ways of achieving this or just trial and error.  Finding and learning the nuances of the mouth call can be overwhelming compared to using a pot or a box call.  Patience and Practice are keys when learning the mouth call.
