Kee kee in spring

[TauntoHawk]

The natural order of things is he gobbles and the hens go to him which is why we end up in an impasse on so many spring gobblers. But the kee kee vocalization is more of a come here so he might just be reacting with instinct.

I've used kee kee and whines to pull hens in with gobblers in tow successfully before. It can be a less aggressive way to call the hen get the gobbler than trying to  fire her up which often can drive her away as much as in.

I really like to whistle about twice then fall into a few yelps. I have heard hens do this in the spring and I think this calling technique just really adds a lot of realism.

I will usually work a short kee-kee run into my calling on a stubborn gobbler.

I hunt a lot of highly pressured public ground in the northeast. THE birds get hammered with calls starting a month or more before season and most every day in season. Sounding different and more realistic is what puts the birds  in my truck.

Slither in tight and a few soft clucks are money for me. I really like a cluck followed by a short kee-kee on a close bird that has hung. GUYS don't do it often. Turkeys do.
