I would like to urge those who are perhaps a little bored with the ease of turkey calls. I have been calling in and killing gobblers for 30 years with mouthcalls. I don't want to come across as cocky, I learned to use them because I was poor and it was all I could afford.
Today I received a trumpet from Mr. Brian Mero and it has renewed my interest in calling turkeys. Out of the box I'm just good enough to produce a string or two of good yelps. It's challenging but I believe this call will bring in gobblers once I fully grasp its potential.
I have read a lot about trumpets and seen a lot of members zeal for such a call. It made me kick around the idea for a few years and I finally pulled the trigger on what I think will be an integral piece of my arsenal.
I have less than two weeks to get proficient on this call before MO's opener. It's gonna be a challenge but I believe it's doable. I'm reminded of when I was a kid using my first mouth call and listening to a copied cassette of Ben Lee.
Thank you to all the members of Spur Collectors and Mr. Brian Mero. I won't go into details of what I've had going on personally but receiving this call and the challenge of learning to run it has been a welcome break from personal issues. Thanks to all, hope to do you guys right come opening day.
