Guess I'm a bit obsessive...I keep a trumpet and Jordan on hand year round when I'm on the road. Listen to real hens calling over the stereo system, and run the yelpers.

General Forum / Practicing your calling?

Last post by Tail Feathers - Today at 10:50:16 PM

I play with pot calls now and then throughout the year.  I sometimes play with trumpets (have not yet reached competence) but I don't practice mouth calling much till January.
I've ordered a few mouth calls for spring 2026 and will begin practicing with them and the other types of calls very soon.  Last year, I went back to basics and worked on it a lot and really improved my game. 
Deer season is still open but real slow here, and my mind turns to turkey.
Who else will up their calling practice soon?
And I really need to get back to walking, gotta get ready for those long morning hikes.

My first one made me want to get the second one and from there it has been one heck of a journey with lots of money spent on gas, calls, shells and guns. But what I have learned and still learning I would trade it for anything. Along this journey I have met some awesome people and call builders. I remember my first turkey a Jake like it was yesterday, killing him with homemade calls, I still have these in a safe place. Good Luck This Spring Everyone.


I carried that Jake around all day showing him off... man he was a trophy ...Little did I know JUST how much this turkey was going to cost me ... A BUNCH... LOL     

So very similar to my experience.
My first bird was a Jake.  Had no idea what I was doing, just bought a couple of calls and figured out where the birds were.  Calling way too loud and too much, two Jake's came in quiet and I took the bigger one.  I was hooked, doubly so the next year when I got my first long beard.  THAT was an epic hunt.

ANY inertia gun will require a firm shoulder mount.

The SBE 3 outclasses the A5 by a wide margin in my experience.

Good choice.
