Wierd Locator Tip

[870BkWht]

I read in a blackpowder magazine an article about blackpowder turkey hunting.  While not really interested in the blackpowder aspect, the author mentioned using a dog whistle for a locator call.  Anyone else ever used this or does it even work?  Not saying I would trying, just was curious.

Havent used it but Mad marketed this concept with the "dead silence"

I have tried it and some of my friends have tried it. Do not know if we were doing it right or not but never had a turkey gobble at it.

Is there anything Mad hasn't marketed?

the mad call did not work for me, but another weird one that does is a goose call

[guesswho]

I've never used one, I wouldn't want a bunch of dogs following me around . 

Mother nature does a pretty good job getting birds to gobble by herself around here.

we were trying that this year but all we got was dogs barking at us lol, but in turn turkeys gobbled at the dogs. But I would have to say this one does not work, well at least not for us.

But the goose call does work, and I REALLY mean it works. Do not underestimate the goose call, but just remember to have someone with you that can walk a few steps away from you to listen

I tried it a few years back [is 15 a few] didn't do me any good. Blew it at 3 deer standing in a woods road about 60-70 yds away, didn't act like they even heard it, look my way or anything.

I will indeed remember the tip on the goose call.  I didn't figure the whole dog whistle thing was a good idea anyways.  Ive never been partial to any product marketed by Drury Bros.  Just my opinion.  Thanks fellas.

Yeah that idea was a flop!

They will hit on a goose call late in season after they have been hooted to death.

Goose call is deadly..

You have probably already know this but I like using a peacock call it's a different sound they have never heard, an they usually will shock gobble at it when nothing else works...

I know a guy that gets is Highway patrol buddy to hit his siren on his way to work near their hunt lease. He says the birds always gobble. I knew of a turkey that would gobble when the school bus would shift gears to climb a hill also.

I bet if the cops were chasing the school bus the turkeys would really go crazy.
