Eehh.. I figure for most of us here. It's kinda like a pocketknife. Just need to touch the edge up a little before putting it to work. I would be willing to bet that for 75% of us on here, the calling is well above average and when a turkey hunt is screwed up. Its not because of the quality of calling. Quantity maybe, but not quality.

You already walk around with your hand in your pocket too much as it is

Thats the spirit! Remember, if your friction call ain't smoking, your just hopin'.

I play calls year around especially at night when I'm sitting around on the recliner! I play everything as much as possible. My wife has gotten so used to it she said she doesn't pay attention to it anymore lol!

Uh oh, maybe that's why I stink. I start practicing around now. Guess I have to start earlier. :smiley-char092:
