Now that spring season is over (a depressing one for me b/c I didnt get as much time to hunt as last year), I cant wait til fall. This year I am going to focus more on fall birds than deer. That being said I am just wondering how much "turkey" stuff you folks carry with you in the fall?

The same thing that I carry in the spring generally.  I do change my camo from obsession to shadow branch by mossy oak. 
Spring gobbler season rules, but fall is generally really exciting, and it offers a wonderful opportunity to hear some turkey talk, plus I just love hunting turkeys, regardless of the time of year.  Each season offers its challenges, though different in many aspects, I love them just the same.

I usually don't carry as many turkey calls in the fall. A few mouth calls and a glass call, but I make up for it in dog stuff. A extra bottle of water, collapsible dog bowl, lead strap and of course a blind. So all in all the weight I carry is about the same.

I carry Less calls and more Dog stuff. I carry a long box , and this year I will be carrying a Nail Call made by Doug Herman, I used in the spring an d called in lots of hens with it .  The way it Kee's Kee's in to soft yelps will be deadly in the fall.  I carry more dog stuff than anything, water, food, english lead, First aid kit, dog dish   It won't get here fast enough.

Everything I use in the spring, I use in the fall minus decoys.  They can be picky about answering certain calls just like a gobbler in the spring.  I also carry an old duck decoy bag that I use to cover my dog when we set up, plus food for him, extra water, food dish, etc.
