Gobbler yelper?

[lowoctane]

 
Been hunting some high pressure areas and am thinking about switching to call the gobbler with a gobbler yelper. Not good with mouth calls, so what about a tube call? Or, what...? Thx!

A scratch box makes about the best Gobbler yelp that I have found.

I use a turpin short box by Mr. E or John Eddleman. On the left side of the box there is a jake yelp. I use it as a last hope type of call and challenge the gobbler that someone has beat him to the hen. It has worked on occasion. Again it is a last resort type of call to make IMO.

I hunt 90% public land, and high pressured birds. I do almost as much Gobbler/Jake talk as I do hen talk. I use Gobbles, Yelps, Clucks, Kee Yelps, Squeals/Whines, Kee Kees, all of which you need to be able to do to sound like a real gobbler or jake. I use a deep raspy box call or a tongue call to do all my Gobbler or Jake talk.

Thanks for the responses! I did pick up a hand made box/slate call that is a low raspy
caller off of the bay. I'll try him out very soon...

Best I've found is a double glass pot with a hickory striker, just slow down your yelps to get deep sound of a gobbler.  Single yelps and two-three yelps are best IMO.  I like to play the center of the pot for the yelps and single note clucks.

Several pot call makers make a double sided pot call which usually has glass as the bottom call surface.  With a cedar, pecan, persimmon, or other "soft" wood striker, you can make great gobbler clucks.  Use a small piece of dry-wall sanding paper, the type w/ the open checkerboard pattern,  to roughen up the glass.  Pappy makes a great two-sided pot call.

 Main thing is how you call, not just the instrument used. I like a Lavender Mountain tube with red Theraband for the most realism.

Roger Parks makes a great gobbler pot call.

I recently got a tube call just for this. Using therabrand yellow on it.
